Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' :java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.persistence.Table.indexes()

Question

In one of my maven project dependency graph of hibernate-core is as follows:

    [INFO] +- org.hibernate:hibernate-core:jar:5.4.10.Final:compile
    [INFO] |  +- (org.jboss.logging:jboss-logging:jar:3.4.1.Final:compile - version managed from 3.3.2.Final; omitted for duplicate)
    [INFO] |  +- javax.persistence:javax.persistence-api:jar:2.2:compile
    +- (org.hibernate:hibernate-core:jar:5.4.10.Final:compile - omitted for duplicate)
    [INFO] | +- org.springframework.data:spring-data-jpa:jar:2.2.4.RELEASE:compile

I am getting error as follows:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.persistence.Table.indexes()[Ljavax/persistence/Index;

Regarding same, I followed this posts: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.persistence.Table.indexes()[Ljavax/persistence/Index; and NoSuchMethodError in javax.persistence.Table.indexes()[Ljavax/persistence/Index. I am not getting any clue regarding how to fix this.

Is there another jpa dependency on the classpath? Or any other jar that conains a class javax.persistence.Table? — GeertPt

Yes @GreyFairer I have. I have org.springframework.data:spring-data-jpa:jar:2.2.4.RELEASE:compile and javax.persistence:javax.persistence-api:jar:2.2:compile. I have updated the post accordingly. — Joy

If you follow the dependencies, you will probably find something like:

spring-data-jpa:2.2.4.RELEASE 
-> org.hibernate:hibernate-core:5.2.17.Final(optional) 
-> org.hibernate.javax.persistence:hibernate-jpa-2.1-api:1.0.0.Final

So that's probably the one with the older javax.persistence.Table class.

I'm not sure if Spring Data is ready for JPA 2.2.

If you look at the pom.xml for spring-data-jpa:2.2.4.RELEASE, it depends on hibernate 5.2.17.Final, and they haven't updated yet.

So I would stick to the hibernate 5.2.x series.

Yeah @GryFairer, I am trying to get rid of this dependency org.springframework.data:spring-data-jpa:jar:2.2.4.RELEASE:compile, but I am not able to even after putting in exclusion block inside hibernate-core in pom.xml

GeertPt Over a year ago

Yeah, exclusion blocks are terrible to work with. But I think if you lower the version for hibernate to 5.2.17.Final or 5.2.18.Final, everything should work without needing exclusion blocks.

I resolved the issue. This was because of adding Java EE6 jar as an external dependency through Intellij, which I had done while setting up the project. As soon as I removed this, it started working. Thanks.
