Spring MockMvc integration test configuration [duplicate]

I'm working on a webapp in Spring using Spring Tool Suite. If I build and deploy the application there using the IDE onto the provided Pivotal tc Server, it works just fine. However, if I do a manual "mvn clean package" build and attempt to deploy it to a standalone Tomcat server (using newest Tomcat 7), it throws the following exception:
2017-08-23 15:24:13 WARN AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext:551 - Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'requestMappingHandlerAdapter' defined in org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.DelegatingWebMvcConfiguration: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.RequestMappingHandlerAdapter]: Factory method 'requestMappingHandlerAdapter' threw exception; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'mvcValidator' defined in org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.DelegatingWebMvcConfiguration: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/el/ELManager

Upon further inspection, it does complain few lines higher above about not loading jars:

What's the reason for this behavior and how can I solve this?
EDIT More information:
Adding <scope>provided</scope> to javax.servlet-api seems to fix the warning about javax.servlet-api not being loaded at the start. Problem with el-api still remains.
I've checked the tomcat/lib directory and it already contains el-api.jar in it, which is likely why it tells me it's not going to load the one I list in pom.xml. The thing is, adding <scope>provided</scope> doesn't fix it either. Whatever I do, it still complains gives me the same java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/el/ELManager error.
SOLUTION
In addition to the part in the edit above regarding javax.servlet-api the problem with el-api was that I was running a Tomcat 7 with provided el-api jar in version 2.2. The missing class was introduced in el-api 3.0. Running the same webapp in Tomcat 8 (with el-api 3.0 jar) works properly.

You miss the javax.el-api as dependency. Add:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.el</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.el-api</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
</dependency>
to your pom.xml

Hibernate Validator 6.x -> Bean Validation 2.0 (JSR 380) -> EL3.0
Hibernate Validator 5.x -> Bean Validation 1.1 (JSR 349) -> EL2.2
Bean Validation 1.0 (JSR 303) -> (I'm not sure)
so,it also influence others version (tomcat,jdk,jsp,servlet)
such as tomcat7, if you want to use Hibernate Validator, should use Hibernate Validator 5.x, el 2.2 (and servlet 3.0, jsp 2.2 and jdk 6+)

Downgrade hibernate-validator to version 5 and it will work fine with Tomcat 7.
In my case I add next dependency to my pom:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
<version>5.4.3.Final</version>
</dependency>
Or you can add newer el-api.jat to tomcat lib folder.

Please refer to Hibernate validation "Unable to initialize javax.el.ExpressionFactory" error
use
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.el</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1-b08</version>
</dependency>

I'm using Tomcat 7.0.9 and couldn't change to any newer one due my company bureaucracy. Importing EL as a dependency didn't solve it either.
At Tomcat's root folder -> lib I replaced old el-api (2.2 version of it) with a new 3.0 (from local .m2\repository\javax\el\javax.el-api\3.0.0). Then, isolating tomcat's dependencies correctly (as shown here) made my WAR be correctly deployed at Tomcat 7.0.9

Adding my answer for those having Tomcat 7 and trying to apply selected answer.
If adding dependency does not help you and you continue getting
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/el/ELManager
that's because Tomcat 7 will not allow you to load a more modern jar with objects from javax.* package. It will print to the log:
jakarta.el-3.0.3.jar - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 3.0, section 10.7.2. Offending class: javax/el/Expression.class
The solution will be to either upgrade your Tomcat or downgrade hibernate-validator to the latest 5.x version. Another (less preferred from my POV) option would be to try to replace jars in your tomcat7/lib folder.

In my case,
Commented out this dependency,
<!-- <dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
<version>6.0.8.Final</version>
</dependency> -->
and added
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.el</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.el-api</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
This solved my issue

Try the following:
Add javax.eland javax.el-api to the pom.xml as others mention
If you have different classloaders - as often the case when using OSGi - you need to temporarily set the context to the one holding the implementation. Wrap your call with:
ClassLoader originalClassLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
try {
Class<?> currentClass = this.getClass(); // or any class that is in a bundle with the dependency
Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(currentClass.getClassLoader());
// execute library call
} finally {
Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(originalClassLoader); // back to original context
}
Add a service to META-INF/services/
Add a property to $java.home/lib/el.properties
Use the system property with the factoryId
When the library is instantiating the ExpressionFactory via > ELManager.newInstance(..) > FactoryFinder.find(..) it has several strategies to find an implementation. The call is hardcoded like this:
public static ExpressionFactory newInstance(Properties properties) {
return (ExpressionFactory) FactoryFinder.find(
"javax.el.ExpressionFactory", "com.sun.el.ExpressionFactoryImpl", properties);
}
See source of javax.el.FactoryFinder.find(..) for further information

jdbc driver works only when using in-memory

Intro:
I have 2 projects, quizManager-core, and quizManager-api.
As the names indicate, quizManager-core handles all the work and quizManager-api exposes the services as a REST API.
The core project is Maven, and uses derby database and Spring framework. The tests work perfectly using both in-memory database and a production database.
The api project is also Maven, uses spring-MVC to handle the API requests and responses.
The problem: The api project works well when using the in-memory database specified in the core project. But java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/QuizManager;create=true is raised when using the production database.
What I have tried: 1. Including derby packages in the API project (derby and derbyClient). 2. Add beans in the applicationContext.xml exactly like they are in the core project.
I can't determine from what part of the project this bug is happening.

Spring 4.0 and ActiveMQ enableStompBrokerRelay error

I've successfully got the example running from here using a SimpleBroker.
My config is set up like:
#Override
public void configureMessageBroker(MessageBrokerRegistry registry) {
registry.enableSimpleBroker("/topic");
//registry.enableStompBrokerRelay("/queue/","/topic/").setRelayHost("localhost").setRelayPort(61614);
registry.setApplicationDestinationPrefixes("/app");
}
When I comment out the SimpleBroker and try to use the StompBroker I get the following error.

<groupId>io.projectreactor.spring</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-spring-context</artifactId>
<version>2.0.5.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
See https://spring.io/blog/2015/02/18/reactor-2-0-0-rc1-with-native-reactive-streams-support-now-available
Then netty was missing in my classpath, so I've added:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.netty</groupId>
<artifactId>netty-all</artifactId>
<version>4.0.31.Final</version>
</dependency>

Your stack trace indicates very clearly it is missing a class:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: reactor/tcp/encoding/Codec
See How to read and understand the java stack trace? if you're not sure how to read it.
For any class not found problem, the most common solution is to include the corresponding jar into your classpath.
The simplest way to do this is go to http://search.maven.org and query the full class name that's missing, for example:
fc:reactor.tcp.encoding.Codec
This will tell you the class belong to reactor-tcp jar. You can either download the jar and manually add it to your classpath or simply paste the maven dependency xml to your pom file.

rsaez's answer is almost right, in my case at last.
I had to add this:
<!-- Reactor -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectreactor</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-core</artifactId>
<version>1.1.6.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectreactor</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-net</artifactId>
<version>1.1.6.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

I ran into the same issue and this worked for me. I am using Spring 4.1.6
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectreactor</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-core</artifactId>
<version>1.1.6.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectreactor</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-net</artifactId>
<version>1.1.6.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectreactor</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-tcp</artifactId>
<version>1.0.1.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

i have made it by following Alex Bretet above,
yet only one change is the version
<dependency>
<groupId>io.projectreactor</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-core</artifactId>
<version>2.0.8.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
instead of 2.0.5
my app works on spring 4.3.18

If you are using spring boot you can just use the amqp and reactor-netty starters:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-amqp</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-reactor-netty</artifactId>
</dependency>

Tomcat: FAIL - Application at context path /employee could not be started

I am new to Spring MVC.
Tried to build the project with the security login, but can not start .war in tomcat.

The log states: "No matching bean of type [org.hibernate.SessionFactory] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency".
You could define it in the applicationContext.xml as shown in this question. Using ApplicationContext in Spring MVC.
It would be something like
<bean id="sessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"></property>
<property name="mappingResources">
<list>
<value>UserAccount.hbm.xml</value>
...
</list>
</property>
<property name="hibernateProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.dialect">${hibernate.dialect}</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.show_sql">${hibernate.show_sql}</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
Hope it helps.
