Weird error when invoking soap - llegalAccessError: tried to access field org.apache.cxf.staxutils.OverlayW3CDOMStreamWriter.isOverlaid

Question

Ive been working on a soap client since a time and I still cannot figure it out.

I have this error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access field org.apache.cxf.staxutils.OverlayW3CDOMStreamWriter.isOverlaid from class org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.saaj.SAAJStreamWriter

    Disconnected from the target VM, address: '127.0.0.1:60128', transport: 'socket'

Process finished with exit code 1

I saw its kinda common but still cannot make it work.

Here is my code:

 Dispatch<SOAPMessage> dispatch = service.createDispatch(portName, SOAPMessage.class, Service.Mode.MESSAGE);
        SOAPMessage response;
        SOAPBody responseBody;
        dispatch.getRequestContext().put(Dispatch.SOAPACTION_USE_PROPERTY, true);
        dispatch.getRequestContext().put(Dispatch.SOAPACTION_URI_PROPERTY, soapActionUri);
        try {
            MessageFactory messageFactory = MessageFactory.newInstance();
            SOAPMessage message = messageFactory.createMessage();
            SOAPPart soapPart = message.getSOAPPart();
            StreamSource msgSrc = new StreamSource(new StringReader(request));
            soapPart.setContent(msgSrc);
            message.saveChanges();


            response = dispatch.invoke(message);
            responseBody = response.getSOAPBody();
....

Any idea about this error?

Answer 1

As you may have already noticed, you have incompatible versions of SAAJStreamWriter and OverlayW3CDOMStreamWriter.

SAAJStreamWriter is located in package cxf-rt-bindings-soap, which is provided by:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
    <artifactId>cxf-spring-boot-starter-jaxws</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.11</version>
</dependency>

OverlayW3CDOMStreamWriter is located in pachage cxf-core, which is provided by:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
    <artifactId>cxf-rt-transports-http-jetty</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.6</version>
</dependency>

Try one of the latest versions of org.apache.cxf - 3.1.13 or 3.2.0 - the same version for both dependencies.
