java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.core.convert.support.PropertyTypeDescriptor

Question

When I am trying to start the application it throws an exception shown in stack trace. I'm using:

spring version 3.2.4.RELEASE
spring Transaction version 3.2.4.RELEASE
spring.security.version 3.0.5.RELEASE
hibernate.version 4.2.1.Final
JPA 1.0

I knew that PropertyTypeDescriptor is removed from spring. But I dont know how to handle this I'm stuck in this from last 2 days. Please suggest.

Stacktrace:

test case:

@ContextConfiguration(locations = {"classpath:mvc-config.xml"})
@TransactionConfiguration(defaultRollback = true)
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@Transactional
public class TestUserController {

    @Before
    public void setUp() throws Exception {
    }

    @Test
    public void testGetAllUsers() {
        fail("Not yet implemented");
    }

Why is it trying to load that class? As far as I can tell, it looks like you're trying to instantiate a bean for a class that's been removed; stop doing that. — chrylis -cautiouslyoptimistic-

I didnt start writing anything in test i'm just loading the context using @ContextConfiguration(locations = {"classpath:mvc-config.xml"}) — Spark-Beginner

Without imported xml and TestUserController code, it's hard to help you — user180100

The spring.security.version 3.0.5.RELEASE depends on Spring core 3.0.3 release. This is why application context cannot load. Upgrade this to a later version.

You can verify this at https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.security/spring-security-core/3.0.5.RELEASE (Look for Compiler dependencies)

If you really need to use that class.

Try put that class in another jar so you can include in your classpath. Like is done with the RmiInvocationWrapper_Stub when you migrate from version 2.5.6 to 3.x.

You can find information in this docs of spring link
