I am developing Spring MVC + POI + Hibernate example by taking a reference from link : https://krams915.blogspot.in/2011/02/spring-3-apache-poi-hibernate-creating.html?showComment=1471543913666#c3056350689763201958. In this project I used the latest dependencies of Spring Framework version 4.3.1.RELEASE.

It looks to be there is some version mismatched between the dependencies but not sure which.

  • NoSuchMethodError = inconsistent libs used. i.e Some dependency was compiled with some other dependency requirement, yet at runtime you aren't using that combination. So Spring + Hibernate are inconsistent, consequently you look at the Maven pom.xml for those projects and see what they need. Why use latest Spring if not upgrading HIbernate??!!!

  • Actually I was looking upgrade both spring and Hibernate and others too ! Commented Aug 18, 2016 at 18:52

A lots of modification needs to be done in order to use the latest dependencies. I used Spring version 4.3.1.RELEASE and Hibernate version 4.3.11.Final and also used latest version of dependencies for others too.

Here you need to change below in hibernate-context.xml

For hibernate 3.0

<bean id="sessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.annotation.AnnotationSessionFactoryBean"
                 p:dataSource-ref="dataSource"
                 p:configLocation="${hibernate.config}"
                 p:packagesToScan="org.krams.tutorial"/>

For Hibernate 4.0.x

<bean id="sessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean"
                 p:dataSource-ref="dataSource"
                 p:configLocation="${hibernate.config}"
                 p:packagesToScan="org.krams.tutorial"/>

Also: For hibernate 3.0

<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager" 
                p:sessionFactory-ref="sessionFactory" />

For Hibernate 4.0

<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager" 
                p:sessionFactory-ref="sessionFactory" />

IMP Note: Hibernate 3.5 and onward contains Hibernate Annotations. : You should remove the dependency on hibernate-annotations.
