我将 hibernate-validator 升级到版本 6.1.5，应用程序在 WAS 8.5.5.17 上不起作用

Question

Beside many components I use my app:

• Spring Framework (version 4.3.20.RELEASE)
• Hibernate (version 4.3.11.Final)

I decide to upgrade hibernate-validator component from version 5.4.3.Final to 6.1.5.Final. When I deployed and run my app on WAS I got error: Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.el.ELManager . On Tomcat 9 everything works fine.

I found some ideas what to do with that. First one comes from https://hibernate.org/validator/documentation/getting-started/ . It says:

Hibernate Validator also requires an implementation of the Unified Expression
Language (JSR 341) for evaluating dynamic expressions in constraint violation messages.
For instance, you can add the following dependency to use the JSR 341 reference
implementation:
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.glassfish</groupId>
   <artifactId>javax.el</artifactId>
   <version></version>
</dependency>

Seconde comes from link , and says almost the same:

Add:
<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.el</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.el-api</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.0</version>
</dependency>

I implemented both solutions but I get new error when I try to reach login page:

Do you have any idaes what can cause that? I also found some solution for WAS Libery , but it doesn't apply to me because I use regular WAS.

What about this link:

https://developer.ibm.com/wasdev/downloads/#asset/features-com.ibm.websphere.appserver.el-3.0

Use the featureManager command, for example:

bin/featureManager install el-3.0 --when-file-exists=ignore
