java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.sun.jersey.core.header.MediaTypes

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.sun.jersey.core.header.MediaTypes
Facing above issue after upgrading wildfly from 8.2 to 15.0.1
Dependencies in my project are as follows.

where jersey.version = 1.11.
Please help to resolve this....

Try jersey version 1.19.1

Conflicting modules. LoggerFactory is not a Logback LoggerContext but Logback is on the classpath

I am getting the error found in the title when I try to run my project. I have read other threads on this error, and found a solution that got rid of the error, but killed all my logging.
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-logging</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
and
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>ch.qos.logback</groupId>
<artifactId>logback-classic</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
both serve to rid me of the error and kill my logging. I would rather be able to keep my Spring-Boot logging and resolve this problem, but haven't been able to find a solution. Is there a way I can keep my current logging and resolve this dependency issue? What is the best way to track down the offending module?
The full error is:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
LoggerFactory is not a Logback LoggerContext but Logback is on the
classpath. Either remove Logback or the competing implementation
(class org.slf4j.impl.Log4jLoggerFactory loaded from
file:/C:/Users/me/.m2/repository/org/slf4j/slf4j-log4j12/1.6.4/slf4j-log4j12-1.6.4.jar).
If you are using WebLogic you will need to add 'org.slf4j' to
prefer-application-packages in WEB-INF/weblogic.xml:
org.slf4j.impl.Log4jLoggerFactory

Spring Boot automatically configures the Log Back library because of the web starter. You should exclude the spring-boot-starter-logging to fix the issue.
To exclude the default LogBack configuration in the maven project,
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-logging</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-log4j2</artifactId>
</dependency>
This covers all possible solutions for both Gradle and Maven project.

I had the same issue when deploying Spring boot as a war in wildfly 23
So i resolved the issue by adding the dependencies int the below order.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-log4j2</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>

</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-logging</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>

For me the following solution worked on
WindFly 27.0.1
JDK - openjdk version "17.0.5" 2022-10-18 LTS
Apache Maven 3.8.6 (84538c9988a25aec085021c365c560670ad80f63)
Java version: 17.0.5, vendor: Amazon.com Inc., runtime: C:\Program Files\Amazon Corretto\jdk17.0.5_8
Here is the pom:
<packaging>war</packaging>
<properties>
<java.version>17</java.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>
<dependency>

<build>
<plugins>

You can remove tag and all the test tags like - spring-boot-starter-test
I am not sure that why did the deployed failed when i removed - <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-tomcat</artifactId>

When I try to run the UI and webservice in tomcat 8 I receive the error. java.lang.AbstractMethodError: javax.ws.rs.core.UriBuilder.uri(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljavax/ws/rs/core/UriBuilder;
I checked most of the SO questions related to this exception and tried all the suggestions but none of them work for me. I am stuck here. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Just adding in case it someone face the issue. I resolved the issue by following this link

<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>
note to
javax.servlet-api
instead of
servlet-api

include maven dependency for javax.servlet api, something like this
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
Refer this for more

After spending 4 hours on this thing, finally found the solution.
The thing is since Servlet API 5.0, the API moved from the package javax.servlet to jakarta.servlet
So instead of adding dependency of javax , add dependency of jakarta in pom of the project
<dependency>
<groupId>jakarta.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>jakarta.servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>5.0.0</version>
</dependency>

If you want to use the libraries provided by Weblogic then the dependencies should be marked as
<scope>provided</scope>
otherwise you'll be pulling in external dependencies and deploying your app with these... in other words, you're compiling against and packaging your app with external dependencies, not the libraries provided by Weblogic for runtime.
