Mockito 4.6.1 does not work with springboot

When I run Junit tests from Eclipse it all passes, however when I run the test from a gradle task which is literally just a test task it fails with the following error message:
java.lang.IllegalStateException at PluginLoader.java:88
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException at DefaultMockitoPlugins.java:85

If I delete testImplementation group: 'org.mockito', name: 'mockito-core', version: '4.6.1' it runs successfully, so it seems like somehow that dependency causes the issue, but unfortunately I definitely need that.
I have both JUnit 4 and JUnit 5 tests in my project. There are some test with #RunWith(SpringRunner.class) and some with #ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class) annotations. I am using Java 11.
Any ideas are welcomed!

You probably use this plugin.
apply plugin: 'io.spring.dependency-management'
and this plugin fix the bytebuddy version to 1.11.22 where mockito 4.6.1 need 1.12.10.
So according to Could not initialize plugin: interface org.mockito.plugins.MockMaker after upgrading Mockito from 4.4.0 to 4.5.0
You need to add
testImplementation 'net.bytebuddy:byte-buddy:1.12.10'
To override the version.

Spring Boot migration from 1.5.22 to 2.0.0

I migrate my app from Spring Boot 1.5.22 to 2.7.0 and I have a problem. Java 8. To migrate to 2.0.0 I have to replace save () with saveAll (), replace the postgres driver: compile group: 'postgresql', name: 'postgresql', version: '9.1-901-1.jdbc4' with implementation ' org.postgresql: postgresql: 42.2.9 ', I also add this line to application.properties:
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.jdbc.lob.non_contextual_creation = true. After that, I build without mistakes, but precisely: when I start shooting with Postman, with the correct token I get 401. (Before it was 200). When I started analyzing it, it turned out that after Spring migration, when the project is being built, postgres tables on localhost are created correctly, but they are empty, (that's why I get 401). I don't know how to work around it. Would you have an idea? I'm pasting build.gradle:

Spring Boot: Project won't compile after changing gradle dependencies

I have a rather strange issue with my Spring boot application which has been driving me around the bend.
So I have my Spring boot API which is in Github and uses Gradle to manage my dependencies. If I add a dependency and compile the project everything works fine. However, if I decide I do not need said dependency anymore and remove it from my build file, my Project will no longer compile stating it cant find packages / symbols for dependencies unrelated to what I removed.
Has anyone seen something like this before? As an FYI I'm using Intellij.
To give an example, here is my current build file:

java: package org.openapitools.jackson.nullable does not exist
I've tried reimporting my project, I've deleted it and pull down a fresh copy from Git..I'm at a loss now. Please if anyone has come across this let me know as google is failing me now :-/
Many thanks
EDIT: Please note for clarification, this seems to only happen when I have Intellij performing the build and Run.
If I switch the below to Gradle I've no issues remove dependencies as described above. However, I'd like to keep Intellij performing the build and run.
Edit:
Adding gradle-wrapper.properties in case it helps
distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7-bin.zip
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
Also, following a suggestion below, I purged the cache in Intellij which Did solve the problem, However, once I remove another dependency I'm back to getting the errors above.
Second Edit
I'm not sure it matters but I noticed since Lombok is the main error I checked the annotation settings.
Why is there a default & a gradle imported, Would that be causing any of the issues?

Can someone please tell me why it is so? and what changes I should I make it to work?

How dependency mapped
dependencies mapped with testCompile will be compiled with src/test/java classes
dependencies mapped with compile will be compiled with src/main/java classes
Issue with the gradle config
Few dependencies are mapped as testCompile but it could be referenced in production code src/main/java.
testCompile group: 'org.apache.commons', name: 'commons-lang3', version: '3.3.2'
Should be
compile group: 'org.apache.commons', name: 'commons-lang3', version: '3.3.2'

Deorg.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeAwareParserConfiguration cannot be cast to org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration

I'm using the Xerces jar in a gradle project, I use then the jar of this project inside a gradle plugin: In fact, I'm developing a gradle plugin with custom tasks that use some functions of the gradle project jar; when I try to run the tasks, I have this error; however when I try to run the function from the gradle project it works correctly. When I tried to search on the net, I found that the cause of the error is that the JRE packages a version of Xerces but I don't know how to resolve the problem...

It a conflict between your version of Xerces 2.11.0 and a version brought through a transitive dependency. Try this :
configurations.all {
resolutionStrategy {
force 'xerces:xercesImpl:2.11.0'
}
}
