Springboot websockets unable to establish connection java.lang.NoSuchMethodError


I am trying to use websockets in my application to provide one-to-one private messaging. I have been following this project in my implementation. With my front project in angular I am able to establish the connection with the cloned chat service from the authors github, but when I try to connect to my own, I am getting this error:

2020-11-04 19:21:53.918 ERROR 21648 --- [nio-7000-exec-9] o.s.w.s.m.StompSubProtocolHandler        : Failed to parse TextMessage payload=[CONNECT
ac..], byteCount=56, last=true] in session 0vmhpgm0. Sending STOMP ERROR to client.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'java.lang.String org.springframework.util.StreamUtils.copyToString(java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream, java.nio.charset.Charset)'
    at org.springframework.messaging.simp.stomp.StompDecoder.readCommand(StompDecoder.java:220) ~[spring-messaging-5.2.10.RELEASE.jar:5.2.10.RELEASE]

    at org.springframework.messaging.simp.stomp.StompDecoder.decode(StompDecoder.java:115) ~[spring-messaging-5.2.10.RELEASE.jar:5.2.10.RELEASE]

The only difference between my project and the other one is that I use postgres, so my repo and service differs, but this code is never reached before the error, as I put breakpoints all around the place and none hit. I cant figure out what the error in this really means, as it's very vague and doesn't point me in any specific direction.

My config:


@Configuration
@EnableWebSocketMessageBroker
public class WebSocketConfig implements WebSocketMessageBrokerConfigurer {

    @Override
    public void configureMessageBroker(MessageBrokerRegistry config) {
        config.enableSimpleBroker("/user");
        config.setApplicationDestinationPrefixes("/app");
        config.setUserDestinationPrefix("/user");
    }

    @Override
    public void registerStompEndpoints(StompEndpointRegistry registry) {
        registry
                .addEndpoint("/ws")
                .setAllowedOrigins("*")
                .withSockJS();
    }

    @Override
    public boolean configureMessageConverters(List<MessageConverter> messageConverters) {
        DefaultContentTypeResolver resolver = new DefaultContentTypeResolver();
        resolver.setDefaultMimeType(MimeTypeUtils.APPLICATION_JSON);
        MappingJackson2MessageConverter converter = new MappingJackson2MessageConverter();
        converter.setObjectMapper(new ObjectMapper());
        converter.setContentTypeResolver(resolver);
        messageConverters.add(converter);
        return false;
    }
}

Chat controller:


@Controller
public class ChatController {

    @Autowired private SimpMessagingTemplate messagingTemplate;
    @Autowired private ChatMessageService chatMessageService;
    @Autowired private ChatRoomService chatRoomService;

    @MessageMapping("/chat")
    public void processMessage(@Payload ChatMessage chatMessage) {
        var chatId = chatRoomService
                .getChatId(chatMessage.getSenderId(), chatMessage.getRecipientId(), true);
        chatMessage.setChatId(chatId.get());

        ChatMessage saved = chatMessageService.save(chatMessage);
        messagingTemplate.convertAndSendToUser(
                chatMessage.getRecipientId().toString(),"/queue/messages",
                new ChatNotification(
                        saved.getId(),
                        saved.getSenderId(),
                        saved.getSenderName()));
    }

    @GetMapping("/messages/{senderId}/{recipientId}/count")
    public ResponseEntity<Long> countNewMessages(
            @PathVariable UUID senderId,
            @PathVariable UUID recipientId) {

        return ResponseEntity
                .ok(chatMessageService.countNewMessages(senderId, recipientId));
    }

    @GetMapping("/messages/{senderId}/{recipientId}")
    public ResponseEntity<?> findChatMessages ( @PathVariable UUID senderId,
                                                @PathVariable UUID recipientId) {
        return ResponseEntity
                .ok(chatMessageService.findChatMessages(senderId, recipientId));
    }

    @GetMapping("/messages/{id}")
    public ResponseEntity<?> findMessage ( @PathVariable UUID id) {
        return ResponseEntity
                .ok(chatMessageService.findById(id));
    }
}

As I said, my front-end should not be a problem, as it is connecting with the other backend, but just to be sure here is my angular snippet:

import * as Stomp from 'stompjs';
import * as SockJS from 'sockjs-client';
// ...

  connect() {
    const sockJS = new SockJS(API_URL + 'ws');
    this.stompClient = Stomp.over(sockJS);
    this.stompClient.connect({}, this.onConnected, this.onError);
  }

I would gladly appreciate some help, as I don't even know what could be broken/missing, its my first time even using websockets and I can't find similiar problems online.

Solution

  • You seem to have messed up dependencies as you use different spring versions.

    The culprit of this issue is -

            <dependency>
                <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-boot</artifactId>
                <version>2.2.6.RELEASE</version>
            </dependency>
    

    Due to this dependency, you are having spring-core-5.2.5.RELEASE.

    The logs shows that you are using spring-messaging-5.2.10.RELEASE version which is making use of StreamUtils copyToString method which got added with 5.2.6 version.

    If you ensure that you use spring-core-5.2.10.RELEASE version, that should resolve the issue.

    You should make use of properties section of your pom. Add a new property for Spring Boot version. Note that spring boot 2.3.1 will pull spring 5.2.10.RELEASE versions.

    <properties>
            <java.version>11</java.version>
            <maven.compiler.source>11</maven.compiler.source>
            <maven.compiler.target>11</maven.compiler.target>
    
            <spring.boot.version>2.3.1.RELEASE</spring.boot.version>
    </properties>
    

    Then use it inside dependencies like -

    <dependency>
                    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                    <artifactId>spring-boot</artifactId>
                    <version>${spring.boot.version}</version>
                </dependency>
    

    You should do it similarly for all spring boot starter dependencies. Plus remove those explicit spring dependencies like spring-context.
