Spring Boot 3.0.0, SQS: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.messaging.handler.annotation.support.PayloadArgumentResolver

Question

I am trying to setup @SqsListener working but I'm gettin this exception:

 org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'simpleMessageListenerContainer' defined in org.springframework.cloud.aws.messaging.config.annotation.SqsConfiguration: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.cloud.aws.messaging.listener.SimpleMessageListenerContainer]: Factory method 'simpleMessageListenerContainer' threw exception with message: Error creating bean with name 'queueMessageHandler' defined in org.springframework.cloud.aws.messaging.config.annotation.SqsConfiguration: org/springframework/messaging/handler/annotation/support/PayloadArgumentResolver

From my build.gradle:

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
    compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
    annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
    implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-aws-messaging:2.2.6.RELEASE'
    implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-aws:2.2.6.RELEASE'
    implementation 'org.springframework:spring-messaging:6.0.2'

    implementation 'io.awspring.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-aws-messaging:2.4.2'
    implementation 'io.awspring.cloud:spring-cloud-aws-dependencies:2.4.2'
    implementation 'software.amazon.awssdk:sqs:2.18.38'
    testImplementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
}

I tried different project setups but it all ending with: Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.messaging.handler.annotation.support.PayloadArgumentResolver

I think PayloadArgumentResolver was deprecated as of Spring 5.2 in favor of PayloadMethodArgumentResolver .

Is it a bug or a dependencies issue?

Try downgrade the spring-messaging to version 5.3.24 as a workaround

implementation 'org.springframework:spring-messaging:5.3.24'
