Spring Upgrade: Spring Integration JMS java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.springframework.integration.config.xml.AbstractRouterParser.parseRouter

I am getting the below error while deploying my application in Weblogic. The functionality was working fine with the older Spring version. After upgrading the spring from 2 to 4, we are getting this error :

java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.springframework.integration.config.xml.AbstractRouterParser.parseRouter(Lorg/w3c/dom/Element;Lorg/springframework/beans/factory/support/BeanDefinitionBuilder;Lorg/springframework/beans/factory/xml/ParserContext;)V

If I remove this XML from my web.xml (contextConfigLocation), my EAR gets deployed successfully.

Help me figure out the issue in the XML.

Solution

  • All the Spring Integration dependencies must be in the same version. In your case 4.3.17.RELEASE. Same applies for Spring Framework dependencies.

    Note: both those versions are EOL already . You need to think to upgrade to the latest one : https://spring.io/projects/spring-integration#learn.

    Also, please, study what is dependency management and how you can avoid extra config relying on the transitive dependencies by the library you use.

    Another useful tool these days is Spring Boot with its version management: https://spring.io/projects/spring-boot
