How to add oracle jdbc driver dependency to JIRA plugin?

I tried this
<dependency>
<groupId>com.oracle</groupId>
<artifactId>ojdbc6</artifactId>
<version>${ojdbc6.version}</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
but with no success.
I failed because of absence of ora18n, I added it also, but it failed with another oracle dependency, etc.
How to add it?

but JIRA wants also orai18n, after addition of all required libs, it fails with OSGI error
Try to use "optional" resolution for dependency.
In your pom.xml find Import-Package in your maven-jira-plugin.
Then add string like that:
some.package.with.dependency.what.was.not.found.*;resolution:="optional",
May be it helps

AndroidDriver giving ClassNotFoundException

I am still trying to get the example in this tutorial to work:
http://www.automationtestinghub.com/first-appium-test-script/
I am getting a ClassNotFoundException in the line:
AppiumDriver<MobileElement> driver = new AndroidDriver<MobileElement>(caps);
I have added java-client-6.0.0-BETA2.jar to my Build Path.
What am I missing?
This is not in any way connected to the question: How to resolve 'the import io cannot be resolved' - that part has been resolved.
Update 03/01/2018
I have converted my project to a Maven project.
Then I added the following to the pom.xml:
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.appium/java-client -->
<dependency>
<groupId>io.appium</groupId>
<artifactId>java-client</artifactId>
<version>6.0.0-BETA2</version>
</dependency>
Then I ran Maven Build with Verify Clean.
The result was still the same:
ClassNotFoundException
Update 04/01/2018
Finally got this working.
I got a response from Appium support - “Selenium requires guava library to be in classpath.”
First I added the android version - but that gave a different error.
When I added the regular version - it all worked:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.guava</groupId>
<artifactId>guava</artifactId>
<version>23.6-jre</version>
<!-- or, for Android: -->
<version>23.6-android</version>
</dependency>

My advice would be to add maven framework support to your project.
If using IntelliJ do the following:
Right Click your folder structure and hit Add Framework Support
Then tick the Maven box and click OK to add this as a Maven Project.
You should then have a pom.xml generated within your folder structure open this.
Within this pom.xml you need to add the following code:
https://gist.github.com/michaelvoase/54f3bbf47b888bb004330a1d1b108068
This will then import the Appium library into your project.

Maven build - force the use of a newer version

I am trying to build protege-server (https://github.com/protegeproject/org.protege.owl.server) from source. I downloaded the source code. Using "mvm -X package" yields the following error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.
0:compile (default-compile) on project org.protege.owl.server: Compilation failu
re
[ERROR] /c:/Users/user/Programs/webprotege/org.protege.owl.server-master/src/mai
n/java/org/protege/owl/server/connect/local/OSGiLocalTransport.java:[11,32] type
org.osgi.framework.ServiceRegistration does not take parameters
Based on a previous question, an OSGI blogpost explains that the problem was fixed in a later (4.3.1) version of the library.
I tried to refer a newer version of this library in the POM.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.osgi</groupId>
<artifactId>core</artifactId>
<version>6.0.0</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>/c:/Users/user/Downloads/osgi.core-6.0.0.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
and even downloaded the newer version to specifically target it.
The error still occurs. Is there any way to solve it?
EDIT:
Attempting the solution suggested by #Balazs Zsoldos didn't help and I received the same error message. I noted an import of this package (org.osgi.framework) referring version 1:
<Bundle-Activator>org.protege.owl.server.Activator</Bundle-Activator>
<Bundle-SymbolicName>org.protege.owl.server</Bundle-SymbolicName>
<Bundle-Vendor>The Protege Development Team</Bundle-Vendor>
<Embed-Dependency>antlr, antlr-runtime, stringtemplate</Embed-Dependency>
<Export-Package>org.protege.owl.server*;version=2.0.6-SNAPSHOT</Export-Package>
<Import-Package>!org.antlr.stringtemplate,
!org.apache.commons.cli,
org.osgi.framework;version="1",
*</Import-Package>
An attempt to remove this line did not help either, as it appears in another dependency down stream. I could not find out how to override the downstream import-package instruction.
The effective pom.xml, as generated by eclipse, is attached as a link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eHFalUHVZ45ejLes_eqaXLw6ttjcTryphbGr_CKbhRk/edit?usp=sharing

The issue is that older versions of osgi.core are still on the classpath of the as they are imported with different group and artifact ids. Drag and drop the pom.xml to your eclipse and see the Dependency Hierarchy tab of the pom editor to get more information.
The following two are imported by dependencies:
org.osgi:org.osgi.core (by org.apache.felix.log)
org.apache.felix:org.osgi.core (by owlapi distribution)
To solve the problem, you should add the following dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.osgi</groupId>
<artifactId>org.osgi.core</artifactId>
<version>6.0.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
And as this does not override the org.apache.felix:org.osgi.core dependency, exclude that one:
<dependency>
<groupId>net.sourceforge.owlapi</groupId>
<artifactId>owlapi-distribution</artifactId>
<version>3.4.5</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>org.osgi.core</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
(and remove the dependency with system scope as you do not need it and its artifactId is different from the standard anyway).
Edit
Just realized that the old osgi.core package is also inside org.apache.felix:org.apache.felix.framework that is pulled transitively by ProtegeLauncher via org.apache.felix:org.apache.felix.main:4.0.3. This means that you should either
Increment the version of org.apache.felix:org.apache.felix.main to the newest (or to one that at least implements osgi 4.3). In this case you do not need osgi.core at all
exclude org.apache.felix:org.apache.felix.main from edu.stanford.protege:ProtegeLauncher (and keep version 4.3.1 or higher of osgi.core)
I tried the second one and another issue comes that surfire plugin cannot be downloaded from maven central (or something similar, you will see).
Notes
The developer of this protege library was clearly not familiar how maven dependency management works and what should have been imported as a dependency. The project imports an OSGi runtime environment transitively that should never happen. For compilation only API should be imported and if the target runtime surely contains that API, it should be imported with provided scope. I would recommend to
not use this library or
clean it out (at least the maven dependency part) and send a pull request so the library can have an acceptable quality

Cannot instantiate the type ADBDataSource using axis2

After using Eclipse EE and Eclipse Axis2 Code Generator plugin, I got a two
operation generated java files with the same error:
Cannot instantiate the type ADBDataSource ConcatRequest.java
Cannot instantiate the type ADBDataSource ConcatResponse.java
Here is the problem:
org.apache.axiom.om.OMDataSource dataSource = new
org.apache.axis2.databinding.ADBDataSource(this,MY_QNAME);
This code appears in both ConcatRequest.java and ConcatResponse.java and
causes the error. I see that ADBDataSource is abstract and cannot be instantiated.
I'm totally new to Axis and I don't know how to solve this problem. Please help.

I had this problem due to a version mismatch of axis2-adb. Safest way to deal with this problem is to have a look at the lib folder of the eclipse plugin (eclipse/(dropins|plugins)/ ... .jar). Then look for the versions of the dependecies and include them (the ones you actually need) in your build path.

i faced the same issue while generating JAVA Stubs from WSDL. Following are the steps I used to solve the issues :
Follow the below link to generate Stubs : https://support.pcmiler.com/en/support/solutions/articles/19000053078-java-client-axis2-code-generator-for-eclipse.
Now there is a small tweak to this link. After doing point no 10 & 11 as mentioned in the above link , only use axis2-1.7.9 to generate your stubs and when they are generated used the jars mentioned in the \axis2-1.7.9\lib in your build path.
Hope this solves your issue.

Old topic, but I was working on a legacy project with several subprojects.
In one of those subprojects, I came across this same message.
It also was a version problem (Maven dependencies...).
Ctrl-Click (in Eclipse/IntelliJ) on "ADBDataSource". Which version is it? For me it was 1.5.6, but in my pom.xml there was only
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.axis2</groupId>
<artifactId>axis2</artifactId>
<version>1.7.4</version>
</dependency>
However, this subproject had a dependency on another subproject which WAS using 1.5.6 (I found it by searching in the whole project for "1.5.6" using the Notepad++ "Search / Find in Files" menu option).
Then in the dependency to that other project, I excluded 1.5.6 :
<dependency>
<groupId>com.group.id</groupId>
<artifactId>anotherproject</artifactId>
<version>version</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.axis2</groupId>
<artifactId>axis2</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
After adding the exclusion, the project did use the 1.7.4 version.

java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: org.apache.http.message.BasicLineFormatter.INSTANCE from Mashape Unirest in Java application

I have a Maven Java project that uses Mashape Unirest for sending HTTP requests to other URLs. I am currently writing an integration test (using TestNG) that sends a normal HTTP request using Unirest. When I run the integration test through Maven (via the Failsafe plugin), the request is sent out successfully. However, when I try to run the integration test via Eclipse, I keep on getting the following error:
FAILED: getCurrentTimeTest

I am also able to reproduce this error using a basic Java application script.
I have made sure that the dependencies I am using in my pom.xml file are the latest and greatest, as seen below:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.mashape.unirest</groupId>
<artifactId>unirest-java</artifactId>
<version>1.3.5</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
<artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
<version>4.3.2</version>

<dependency>

</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
<artifactId>httpcore</artifactId>
<version>4.3.2</version>
</dependency>
I have also checked out the source code of BasicLineFormatter.java, both from the source file downloaded to Eclipse and from Apache's Httpcore Github repo. In the Github repo, notice how the INSTANCE field is defined for the 4.3.x branch and the trunk branch, but not in older branches like 4.2.x. However, I am indeed using version 4.3.2 in my project, so I should be using a JAR file for Httpcore that has the latest version of BasicLineFormatter. I know that, based on the Maven Dependencies JAR files that are in my project, that I am indeed using the latest versions of these Apache dependencies, not the older versions specified as downstream dependencies of my project.
I have checked other various SOF and blog posts about this issue, such as Mashape Unirest Java : java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError and this blog post too, but they all seem to be talking about solving the NoSuchFieldError problem for Android. However, I'm dealing with a standalone Java application, not an Android application.
I am at a loss in determining how to troubleshoot this issue. Anyone have any idea what I need to do?
UPDATE
Instead of showing my test case, I will reduce the illustration of a reproduction of this problem to just a simple one-liner Java application, because the problem exists with any Java application or test case run through Eclipse, not just one particular test:
System.out.println(Unirest.get("http://www.google.com").asStringAsync().get().getBody());
Normally, this should print the HTML of the Google home page, but I instead get the NoSuchFieldError stack trace.
FIXED!
The problem was that the AWS SDK (it's on my classpath because I'm developing for Elastic Beanstalk) had a conflicting JAR file. Using Oleg's solution (thanks BTW), I printed the following output in a unit test:
jar:file:/some/path/aws-java-sdk/1.7.1/third-party/httpcomponents-client-4.2.3/httpcore-4.2.jar!/org/apache/http/message/BasicLineFormatter.class
I'll have to rearrange my classpath so that AWS SDK is no longer conflicting.

The only plausible explanation to this problem is there is an older version of HttpCore on the classpath (unless you also want to consider a possibility of green men from Mars messing with your computer remotely from a flying saucer).
You can add this snippet to your code to find out what jar the class gets picked up from. This might help find out why that jar is on your classpath in the first place.
ClassLoader classLoader = MyClass.class.getClassLoader();
URL resource = classLoader.getResource("org/apache/http/message/BasicLineFormatter.class");
System.out.println(resource);
This basically tells me that in my case the jar resides in the local maven repository and likely to have been added to the classpath by Maven
jar:file:/home/oleg/.m2/repository/org/apache/httpcomponents/httpcore/4.3.1/httpcore-4.3.1.jar!/org/apache/http/message/BasicLineFormatter.class

As already mentioned by previous comments, It's mainly because of the conflicting versions of httpcore jar, the static field INSTANCE is been added to BasicLineFormatter class in versions > 4.3.1, Though you might have added the latest version of the httpcore jar in your dependencies, but its highly possible that other (lower) version of jar is getting picked up.
So, first to confirm that, wrong jar is getting picked up, Use the following line of code -
ClassLoader classLoader = <Your Class>.class.getClassLoader();
URL resource = classLoader.getResource("org/apache/http/message/BasicLineFormatter.class");
System.out.println(resource);
If this prints, the lower version of the jar, then it's confirmed that it's picking the lower version of the httpcore jar (May be from other dependencies of your project),
Solution -
Add following maven/gradle dependencies at the top of dependency list (Or above the other project dependency which caused the conflict) -
<dependency>
<groupId>com.mashape.unirest</groupId>
<artifactId>unirest-java</artifactId>
<version>1.4.5</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
<artifactId>httpcore</artifactId>
<version>4.4.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
<artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
<version>4.4.1</version>
</dependency>

I faced the same exception using unirest:
java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE
at org.apache.http.impl.io.DefaultHttpRequestWriterFactory.<init>(DefaultHttpRequestWriterFactory.java:52)
at com.mashape.unirest.http.options.Options.refresh(Options.java:55)
at com.mashape.unirest.http.options.Options.<clinit>(Options.java:36)
And found it was due to DefaultConnectionKeepAliveStrategy.INSTANCE; and the conflicting jar was apache-httpcomponents-httpclient.jar in my classpath. Adding this post to help anyone who faces similar exception

I got this Exception: Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE
Solution:
This happens if you have two different version classes in your classpath…. […], So I first find that class (one version of class), click that class, select build path, then I click remove from build path.

if you are using aws sdk this error occurs because of dependency mismatch.
To avoid this error do the following:
1.Put the dependecies in the required order aws sdk and the end preferably
2.Add shade plugin to the project
This solved my problem

you can refer to my answer in
HTTPClient Example - Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE
my case is i have httpclient-4.4.1.jar, and httpcore-4.4.1.jar in my class path, but JVM loaded BasicLineFormatter from httpcore-4.0.jar
