I have an issue with a project I have downloaded from AWS (https://aws.amazon.com/de/code/travel-log-sample-java-web-application/?tag=code%23keywords%23amazon-simpledb). That looked like an easy one. However, running the application gives me a NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE exception.
Googling on stack overflow, I found this question: java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE
However, I couldn't figure out what was wrong by showing a mvn dependency tree. I googled further and found https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?messageID=517561#517561, telling me to remove httpclient and httpcore.
Done that, added this to my pom:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
<artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
<version>4.5.5</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
<artifactId>httpcore</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
<artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
Still same error. I posted a question to AWS, but no answers. Looking for answers also brought me across Conflict between httpclient version and Apache Spark, but in my webapps root WEB-INF/lib I still see several httpclient and httpcore - jar files (which is problably the problem as they're also in the war). But why maven shading does not exclude them is a mystery to me.
So I am trying to figure this one out for >5hrs now and I guess I could need some help. The exception is
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'travelLogDao' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE
