WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter.class] cannot be opened because it does not exist

Question

after building spring app, I have this problem:

  .../WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter.class] cannot be opened because it does not exist at org.springframework.context.annotation.ConfigurationClassParser.parse(ConfigurationClassParser.java:181)

My pom.xml

<properties>
    <spring.version>4.3.0.RELEASE</spring.version>
    <springsecurity.version>4.2.3.RELEASE</springsecurity.version>
    <!--<springsecurity.version>5.0.0.RELEASE</springsecurity.version>-->
</properties>


<dependencies>


    <!--spring security web and config-->

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-security-web</artifactId>
        <version>${springsecurity.version}</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-security-config</artifactId>
        <version>${springsecurity.version}</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-security-core</artifactId>
        <version>${springsecurity.version}</version>
    </dependency>

SecurityConfig class:

    @Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

    @Override
    protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception {
        auth.inMemoryAuthentication().withUser("john").password("secret123").roles("EMPLOYEE");
        auth.inMemoryAuthentication().withUser("mary").password("secret123").roles("MANAGER");
        auth.inMemoryAuthentication().withUser("susan").password("secret123").roles("ADMIN");

    }

}

Inizializer:

public class SecurityWebApplicationInitializer extends AbstractSecurityWebApplicationInitializer {

}

It seems that it can't find jar file after build. I tried adding it to artifacts in Project Structure in IntelliJ Idea, but it didn't help.

Answer 1

Go to Project Structure -> Artifacts -> Click green '+' button -> and all Spring Security libaries
