java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: REFLECTION
I'm creating a project with CXF and use MTOM with some security (I don't know if that information is relevant).
When I tried initialize my server I recived that error:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'example': Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: REFLECTION

I tried execute those two tutorials http://web-gmazza.rhcloud.com/blog/entry/cxf-usernametoken-profile and http://thenonsensetechlogs.wordpress.com/2011/05/09/mtom-using-apache-cxf-and-maven/
Answer
Or it could be just different versions of com.sun.xml.bind:jaxb-core and com.sun.xml.bind:jaxb-impl. Ensure they are the same across your dependency:tree.
I had -core v.2.2.11 and -impl v.2.2.6 in my project which led to the same exception. After setting both versions to 2.2.11 via dependencyManagement section everything became fine.
