        IndexResponse response1 = client.index(indexReqBuilder.build());
        System.out.println("Success: " + response1.version());

    }

}

Upon running mvn package and java -cp es-test-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar es.App I am getting the following error.

Error: Unable to initialize main class es.App
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: co/elastic/clients/json/JsonpMapper

This issue is only coming on ubuntu running on EC2, while there is no issue if i run it locally over my mac machine inside eclipse.

Edit - If I run the project inside using right-click + run as JAVA application then it's working fine. But if i run the same project using mvn package && java -cp target/es-test-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar es.App then i am facing the same issue even on mac

Solution

  • You are building the app, but not including any of its dependencies. Maven doesn't do that automagically. To include dependencies, use something like maven-assembly-plugin. Put this right after the dependencies section of your pom.xml:

    <build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <phase>package</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>single</goal>
                    </goals>
                    <configuration>
                        <archive>
                            <manifest>
                                <mainClass>
                                    es.App
                                </mainClass>
                            </manifest>
                        </archive>
                        <descriptorRefs>
                            <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
                        </descriptorRefs>
                    </configuration>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>
