Error creating bean defined in class path resource [rabbit-context.xml] from dependency

Question

I upgraded spring amqp & rabbit version from 1.7 to 2.2.8 Release version. The build deployment fails with this error from a dependent service jar. How can this be resolved.

<dependency>
                <groupId>org.springframework.amqp</groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-amqp</artifactId>
                <version>2.2.8.RELEASE</version>
            </dependency>
                <dependency>
                    <groupId>org.springframework.amqp</groupId>
                    <artifactId>spring-rabbit</artifactId>
                    <version>2.2.8.RELEASE</version>
                </dependency>

Answer 1

It looks like you have an old version of spring-retry on the classpath - that constructor was added in 1.1.4.

You should be using 1.2.5 or 1.3.0.
