NoSuchMethodError: MultivaluedMap.addAll in Jersey Client

Wojtek picture Wojtek · Sep 2, 2013 · Viewed 38.7k times · Source

I'm trying to use Jersey Client to simulate HTTP requests to my web service. I tried to implement the simple example from the documentation. Here's my short code:

public void restoreTest(String sessionId) throws Exception {
    Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient();
    WebTarget target = client.target(idsUrl).path("restore");
    Form form = new Form();
    form.param("sessionId", sessionId);
    target.request(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED_TYPE);
}

I didn't even implement the whole example, because currently I get an exception in the last line:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.ws.rs.core.MultivaluedMap.addAll(Ljava/lang/Object;[Ljava/lang/Object;)V

I only added this dependency to my pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.core</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-client</artifactId>
    <version>2.2</version>
</dependency>

I tried to google the problem, as well as debug the application, but I can't really see what's wrong with it.

This looks like an inconsistency pertaining to the JAX-RS API version (which contains the MultiValuedMap).

You are using client jersey-client v2.2, which is compiled against v2.0 of the JAX-RS API. But your runtime states to run with Java EE 6, which defines JAX-RS API v1.1. So your code expects v2.0 of the JAX-RS API, but gets v1.1 at runtime.

This is the MultiValuedMap API for Java EE 6:

http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/ws/rs/core/MultivaluedMap.html (no addAll method).

And for Java EE 7:

http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/javax/ws/rs/core/MultivaluedMap.html (this one includes the addAll method).

As you are using Java EE 6, you should be using jersey-client v1.8, not 2.2. Or you should be including the Java EE 7 API in your runtime classpath, and not 6.
