Spring boot 2.4.5 REST WS WAR into glassfish 5 端点运行应用程序错误

Question

Hello everyone can someone help me understand why this problem occurs...

Basically I have created a REST WS with Maven and have built a WAR file to deploy into Glassfish 5 and have an error when I access one of the endpoints.

Otherwise if I deploy the same WAR into Tomcat 9, the same call to the endpoint run´s well.

The deployment process occurs with no fuss and the REST endpoints work in both.

JAVA_HOME is the same for both AS, configured to run in Java 1.8.

But in a particular call to an endpoint this error is thrown:

Answer 1

You say that there is a difference in observed behaviour between Tomcat and Glassfish .

If we look at the log output, we will see that there is java.lang.AbstractMethodError thrown.

If we looks into Oracle docs we can see that its thrown when ...

Thrown when an application tries to call an abstract method. Normally, this error is caught by the compiler; this error can only occur at run time if the definition of some class has incompatibly changed since the currently executing method was last compiled.

In practice, this occurs because some dependency versions in your app have an incompatability. You can see an example of a scenario when this can play out here .

If we look closer at the error message we can see the following

java.lang.AbstractMethodError: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.std.ReferenceTypeSerializer.withResolved(Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/databind/BeanProperty;Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/databind/jsontype/TypeSerializer;Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/databind/JsonSerializer;Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/databind/util/NameTransformer;Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/annotation/JsonInclude$Include;)Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/databind/ser/std/ReferenceTypeSerializer;

So, OK ... why can it happen ? Spring Boot apps use Jackson for serialisation and deserialisation and typically run on an embedded Tomcat , which has some stuff of the right versions to enable it to work. It seems that something is very different on Glassfish, it must supply some jars , which cause this incompatiability.

The easiest solution seems to be to use the next version of Glassfish , which is 6.0 ... hopefully, it contains some more modern jars, which are compatiable with Spring Boot's jackson.

Otherwise, I think, you'll need to change the version of Jackson Glassfish v 5.0 is using ... to make it compatiable with Spring Boot.

Or change the version of Jackson SpringBoot is using to make it compatiable with Glasshfish version.

This gives a solution strategy. If you still have further questions, please post in the comments to this answer.
