java.lang.NoSuchMethodException when trying to use OncePerRequestFilter

Question

I am trying to filter incoming HTTP requests using a OncePerRequestFilter implementation. The bean for this is instantiated successfully, however, when running the project using mvn jetty:run, I am getting a java.lang.NoSuchMethodException with the following stack trace:

I am usure what method is being referenced in this Exception as I have tried the same filter in a different project, without any additional methods, and it worked fine. What could be causing this?

`com.nextscm.proxy.config.InboundLoggingFilter` --- Hmmm... With a package name like that, it looks like a custom filter class added by you, and the **class doesn't have a no-arg constructor**, which is what the `InboundLoggingFilter.()` indicates. Of course, if `InboundLoggingFilter` is supposed to be a Spring Component, the servlet container isn't supposed to call the constructor, so you likely registered the filter wrong, but since you didn't share any code for this filter or how it has been registered, we really can't help with that. — Andreas, Oct 11 '20 at 11:28

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: com.nextscm.proxy.config.InboundLoggingFilter.<init>()

This tells me, that the class InboundLoggingFilter doesn't have an empty constructor. Maybe check your implementation of the object and the documentation. Without the code however, it will be hard to help you.

Yeah, that seems to be the issue. I added a blank, empty-constructor and it seems to be wokring now – Tabish Mir Oct 11 '20 at 13:04
