ClassNotFoundException oracle.i18n.util.LocaleMapper on tomcat TLD scanning. ojdbc7 maven dep (xmlparserv2-12.1.0.2.jar transitive) causes this error

I am receiving an error when running my spring-boot application with embedded-tomcat (haven't tried with server tomcat yet).

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Tomcat 7 reflection failed

On further inspection, It appears as though the previous version of the orai18n.jar depended on by the ojdbc7 maven dep contained this class in vesion 11.2.0.3 but the newer (12.1.0.2) file does not contain it.

Solution

  • It's a conflict with xmlparserv2. Try this :

        <dependency>
        <groupId>com.oracle.jdbc</groupId>
        <artifactId>ojdbc7</artifactId>
        <version>12.1.0.2</version>
        <exclusions>
            <exclusion>
                    <groupId>com.oracle.jdbc</groupId>
                    <artifactId>xmlparserv2</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
        </exclusions>
    </dependency>
