Flink Reading a S3 file causing Jackson dependency issue

I a reading a config YAML file in my link application. I want to keep this config file on S3 filesystem but when using aws-sdk in my pom and trying to read I am getting this error. I know this is due to Jackson's conflict dependency but I am not able to resolve it. Please help me to get it to resolve.

Getting the answer about conflict solely from POM is highly unlikely. Instead, You should refer to the maven dependency plugin, by invoking the following command:
mvn dependency:tree
This will print all the dependencies and the dependencies of those dependencies, this way You will be able to locate which of libraries You are importing has the transitive dependency on Jackson and You will be able to mark it as excluded.
Note: What You are really looking for in this dependency tree are the Jackson dependencies with different versions, so You don't need to exclude them all.

Hibernate Issue with Spring Maven & Tomcat

I have been scratching my head for a few hours and can't seem to solve this issue. I have been following several tutorials on getting started with Maven & Hibernate, following this and this. Each time I deploy on Virgo Tomcat, I get the following error spitting out
An Import-Package could not be resolved. Caused by missing constraint in bundle <com.stuart.contextmanagement_0.1.0>
constraint: <Import-Package: javassist.util.proxy; version="[3.18.0,4.0.0)">
So I added Java Assist as a dependency in my pom, then is spat out
An Import-Package could not be resolved. Caused by missing constraint in bundle
com.stuart.contextmanagement_0.1.0>
constraint: <Import-Package: com.sun.jdi.request; version="0.0.0">
I can't find the above package when searching through repo's. I have also experienced a similar issue before, and every time I add a new dependency which it can't find, it can't find another one and so on...
A snippet of my pom is as follows;
<dependency>

Thanks for your help.

hm, have you tried also the jboss javassist?

I ended up finding a solution. For any one who's interested, I ended up creating another maven project and exporting several other dependencies than I could see any any documentation or tutorial. Below is the snippet of my final pom.xml.

NoSuchMethodError: JsonFactory.fromInputStream

I am trying to get a clean code sample of Google API OAuth2 authentication.
My code is mostly based on the explanation at https://code.google.com/p/google-api-java-client/wiki/OAuth2
I deviate from this tutorial because I want my libraries be managed by Maven and because I want to create a project without Google Apps Engine dependencies.
Each time I try to the run the project on my Glassfish server, I get the following error, probably indicating a dependency conflict.
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.google.api.client.json.JsonFactory.fromInputStream(Ljava/io/InputStream;Ljava/lang/Class;)Ljava/lang/Object;

Please help me find the root cause of this error, because the used dependencies seem just fine to me and there's no similar problem case I could find.

The correct dependency for jackson2 is:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.http-client</groupId>
<artifactId>google-http-client-jackson2</artifactId>
<version>1.14.1-beta</version>
</dependency>
Once I changed that, the project built successfully, and I was able to call the method in question just fine.
There could be something else on the classpath that's interfering. I suggest you run the program with -verbose: class (see here for a more detailed explanation), which will show any conflicts.

spring-hibernate3 with hibernate-core-4.1.2

I want to set open session in view pattern controlled by Spring. I am using Hibernate 4.1.2. Now if I add spring-hibernate3 in pom.xml eventually it add its dependency hibernate-3.2.5.ga. I think I can not have these two hibernates at a time.
If I want to use spring-hibernate3 should I remove the hibernate-core-4.1.2.jar?

Yes, if you remove the hibernate-core 4.1.2 dependency from your pom.xml file, you'll only have the hibernate3 jar in your classpath.
But since spring-hibernate seems to be pretty old (from the Spring point of view, the latest is 2.0.8 version and lastest Spring Core is 3.1.1)
But I think you can use the open session in view pattern with your current setup, since spring-orm-3.1.1 supports Hibernate4; take a look at http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.1.x/javadoc-api/org/springframework/orm/hibernate4/support/package-summary.html.

What is correct version or jackson for spring?

I am using jackson converter (MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter) to consume and produce json data from spring controller. But while invoking controller throws following exception.

I can see in spring-web pom file jackson version is mentioned as 1.4.2 and same I have used still it is throwing exception regarding method not found. Am I using correct version?

You seem to be missing the jackson-core dependency. You need that as well as jackson-mapper.
The 1.4.x version should be fine, although it shouldn't hurt to upgrade it to something more recent.

I think you have differing versions between Jackson core and mapper jars (former has streaming parser/generator; latter data binding). It is hard to ensure that transitive dependencies have compatible versions -- while multiple Jackson versions work just fine with Spring (and most other frameworks), versions of mapper and core have bit stricter dependencies.
Specifically: version of core should not be much older than version of mapper, as newer mapper versions depend on new features in core. Reverse matters less; so it is generally fine to have older mapper version, newer core (core also changes at much slower pace at this point).

I found the problem.
Use Jacson version 1.4.2 should not have problem and as StaxMan suggested core is dependably for mapper so it will be automatically resolved no need to declare it explicitly.
Now coming back to problem. It is classpath issue within jboss. I have two web application deployed in same server one with dependency on jacson versioin 1.1.1 and other one with 1.4.2. I dont yet have solution, So I have posted another question related to Jboss.
