Java ee Servlet is handling AbstractMethodError

Question

After add second servlet I am getting Exception:

java.lang.abstractmethoderror: receiver class com.sun.jersey.core.spi.factory.responseimpl does not define or inherit an implementation of the resolved method abstract getstatusinfo()ljavax/ws/rs/core/response$statustype; of abstract class javax.ws.rs.core.response.

I figure out that the problem is in dependencies in my pom.xml but I don't have any idea where. Anyway, I gonna forward you some codes. First, my servlets

    package vs.api.serlvets;

import com.sun.jersey.api.NotFoundException;
import vs.api.database.UserDBO;
import vs.api.repository.User;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.sql.SQLException;

@WebServlet(name = "LogInServlet", urlPatterns = { "/LogInUser"})
public class LogInServlet extends HttpServlet
{
    main.java.vs.api.database.DatabaseManager databaseManager;
    UserDBO userDBO;
    HttpSession session;
    public void init() throws ServletException
    {
        databaseManager = new main.java.vs.api.database.DatabaseManager();
        try
        {
            userDBO = new UserDBO(databaseManager.dataSource.getConnection());
        }
        catch (SQLException e)
        {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
    {
        session = request.getSession();
        session.removeAttribute("errorLogIn");
        PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
        String email = "";
        String password = "";
        User user = new User();
        try
        {
            email = request.getParameter("inputEmail");
            password = request.getParameter("inputPassword");
            user = userDBO.get(email, password);
        }
        catch (SQLException e)
        {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        catch (NotFoundException e)
        {
            session.setAttribute("errorLogIn", e.getMessage());
            response.sendRedirect(request.getHeader("Referer"));
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        out.print("User: " + user.getName());
    }

    @Override
    public void destroy()
    {
        userDBO.exit();
    }
}

    package vs.api.serlvets;

        super();
    }

    public void init() throws ServletException 
    {
        databaseManager = new DatabaseManager();
        try

            userDBO = new UserDBO(databaseManager.dataSource.getConnection());
        } 
        catch (SQLException e)

    }

    protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
    {

        {

        }
    }

    @Override
    public void destroy()
    {
        userDBO.exit();
    }
}

This is my all pom.xml Could you say me where is problem? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

First you need to remove unnecessary dependencies for that you can use maven. Execute below commands by opening terminal in your project root directory.

1. mvn clean
2. mvn dependency:analyze

It will show you the unused and required dependencies.

Also you can try by changing your pom. i think you only need following dependencies.

    <dependency>
      <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
      <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
      <version>3.0.1</version>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

   <dependency>
      <groupId>junit</groupId>
      <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
      <version>3.8.1</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
      <groupId>mysql</groupId>
      <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
      <version>8.0.18</version>
    </dependency>
