Problem with Thymeleaf dependencies of a SpringBoot application

In my SpringBoot 3.0 application with Java 17 (built from Bootify.io), if I don't specify version for the following Thymeleaf dependencies, the application works correctly, and I can access http://localhost:8080/ without problem:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>nz.net.ultraq.thymeleaf</groupId>
<artifactId>thymeleaf-layout-dialect</artifactId>
</dependency>
But, if I specify the following 2.X.X versions, I can no longer access http://localhost:8080/
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf</artifactId>
<version>2.7.7</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>nz.net.ultraq.thymeleaf</groupId>
<artifactId>thymeleaf-layout-dialect</artifactId>
<version>2.5.3</version>
</dependency>
It fails with typicall:
Whitelabel Error Page
This application has no explicit mapping for /error, so you are seeing this as a fallback.

There was an unexpected error (type=Not Found, status=404).
On the other hand, I can't specify 3.X.X dependencies, because running via GraalVM doesn't work. Also, if I don't specify version for Thymeleaf dependencies, execution from GraalVM fails
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>nz.net.ultraq.thymeleaf</groupId>
<artifactId>thymeleaf-layout-dialect</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>

You have 3.x as parent and giving 2.x in the starter and other dependencies is the problem. The idea of parent pom is to manage all spring related versions. if you define different dependency versions in your pom xml, it will break the compatibility. Therefore you will have errors or worse(compile problems like method not found).
You can see the parent pom in the pom xml like below
<parent>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
<version>3.0.2</version>
<relativePath /><!-- lookup parent from repository -->
</parent>
Very rarely you may need to override versions of dependencies you can via properties check option 2

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed to link org/pentaho/di/core/attributes/metastore/EmbeddedMetaStore

I'm building a batch with Pentaho Kettle to process some files. This batch is started by a servlet. However, when I try to start it, I get the following warn which actually block the process:

However, when I look in my lib folder, the jar containing this class (kettle-engine-8.2.0.0-342.jar) is there and the class is also in it.
I'm using a JBoss EAP 7.0 with Java 1.8.0.161 on my computer for development. I start it with my IDE (Eclipse Photon). Here are my dependencies in the pom.xml:
<dependencies>
<dependency>

<dependency>

<artifactId>netty</artifactId>
<version>3.9.0.Final</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Important : this issue does not occur when using previous version of kettle-core and kettle-engine (tested with 7.0).
It's an embedded call so I do not directly call this class in my code.
I do not have multiple versions of this jar in my classpath.

Another person in my company found out so i'll just answer here to close the topic.
I didn't show it here but in my dependencies I had a dependency to some custom framework from work. This framework actually included pentaho, but the 7.0 version. Then, #suresh was right when he talk about multiple version jar.
So the answer is :
Check if any dependency actually contains duplicate dependency you're calling somewhere else. To avoid this issue, use the excluding syntax in the dependency calling the wrong versions :
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>pentaho-kettle</groupId>
<artifactId>kettle-engine</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>pentaho-kettle</groupId>
<artifactId>kettle-core</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>

Spring Boot Project cannot run by IntelliJ IDE [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Run Spring-boot's main using IDE

Edit:
Here's the WebApplication file:

Did I miss something in POM settings?

As a quick workaround, you can add a jar configuration that uses the resulting jar from target folder.
In this way you can start the application normally or in debug mode.
As a drawback for this approach: you won't have the hotswap available and you will see the changes only after a maven build. But in this case I usually add in the add jar run configuration window in before section a maven goal with "clean package -DskipTests" so each time I press run I will have the latest changes available.
This is a quickfix; the problem can be solved in other ways - I done it some times ago but I can't remember exactly what was the problematic dependency - you need to dig a little in Spring source code with some debugging around the methods from which the exception jumps.

How did you set the Configuration on IntelliJ? Since it's a WAR file, you'd need to have a web server container. Your pom has spring-boot-starter-tomcat, so you'll need to create a Tomcat Server configuration. This is a paid feature in IntelliJ, so you probably can't do it with the community edition.
A work-around is to create a Remote Debugging on your war file:

unable to deploy spring-xd processor module using spring-data-jpa on xd-singlenode

I have a spring-xd processor module which has a dependecy to a project using spring-data-jpa:
pom.xml of the xd-processor module:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.test.common</groupId>
<artifactId>org.test.common</artifactId>

</dependency>
</dependencies>
pom.xml of org.test.common:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactId>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
If I run the integration test everything works fine. But the deployment to xd-singlenode (1.2.0.RELEASE) fails with the following error:
2015-06-21T20:50:35+0200 1.2.0.RELEASE ERROR DeploymentsPathChildrenCache-0 boot.SpringApplication - Application startup failed

What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated.

When deploying a web application I get the exception NoClassDefFoundError:LocalizableImpl

I have a standard J2EE web application that includes web services. I'm using the webservices-rt library to host the services. [See the maven dependency below]. However, I get the following exception at run time:

Maven WS Dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.xml.ws</groupId>
<artifactId>webservices-rt</artifactId>
<version>1.4</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
Am I missing a library? I've tried adding jaxws-rt. However, that requires an additional repo [jboss]. I'm a bit leery of that, as that it introduces a lot of new libraries into the project.

If you are using Maven, add below to your project should solve your problem:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.xml.ws</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxws-rt</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
</dependency>
You don't have to add others jar because it will automatically pull the rest of dependencies. I prefer to add the jar to my war instead of Tomcat lib. I think it is more portable.

try
The JAX-WS dependency library “jaxws-rt.jar” is missing.
Go here http://jax-ws.java.net/.
Download JAX-WS RI distribution.
Unzip it and copy “jaxws-rt.jar” to Tomcat library folder “{$TOMCAT}/lib“.
Restart Tomcat.

For a maven, tomcat application try these dependencies in your pom.xml
<dependencies>
<!-- jax-ws maven dependency -->
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.xml.ws</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxws-rt</artifactId>
<version>2.2.8</version>

Declaring the JBoss repo doesn't automatically import the repo libraries. It simply makes the libraries available for importing.
Bottom line is that if you want to use a class that's in a library, then you have to pull the library into your project. If the library is in the JBoss repo, then you have to declare the JBoss repo.
