JDBC, Socket factory not found while using mariadb driver

So, basically, I get java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/net/SocketFactory
while trying to connect to my database. I'm using mariadb driver from mvn repo.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mariadb.jdbc</groupId>
<artifactId>mariadb-java-client</artifactId>
<version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>
And this is my code:
try{
DriverManager.registerDriver(new org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver());
}catch (SQLException e){
logService.log(LogService.LOG_ERROR, "Error while registering driver.");
}
try (Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mariadb://myhost:myport/mydb?allowMultiQueries=true", "admin", "password")) {
Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery(queryString);
Is there something wrong with my code or configuration?
Edit: full stack trace

Turns out javax.net package wasn't included in the OSGi bundle. It caused a lot of confusion since we used MySQL JDBC driver before and I suppose it has it's own implementation of SocketFactory, which MariaDB driver apparently hasn't.

Make sure you are using a jdk and that the jdk is not corrupted. It must contain the jsse.jar in the jdk1.8.0_xyz\jre\lib dir. See https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/jsse-136410.html for manual download (this should not be necessary in a clean installation and I'd rather re-install the jdk).

This is solved but in case someone else goes through the same error.
If you get this error in your plugin you can just import javax.net under the tag of your pom file.

How to handle when request payload is empty in jersey REST?

You do not has jackson jar in your project. Your screenshot show only jersey jars.
Visit http://findjar.com/ and search for your missing class org.codehaus.jackson.JsonFactory. It will show which jar contains that. You need to find what version will work for your project.
Not sure if you are using maven or gradle for dependency management.

How to change unicode [0x0] character data from SOAP response

I am new to Spring WS and I have written a SOAP web service client to consume Soap based web service using Spring WS. I am able to send request however I am getting error
ERROR: 'An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x0) was found in the element content of the document.
I just wanted to change this unicode character to empty string (i.e., "") before parsing response(pojo) object. Or How can I skip this Unicode character validation before parsing it response object.
Below is the log message

Eclipse with tomcat : java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException when I try running a web service client

I am developing a SOAP web service with Axis2/Eclipse/Tomcat and I'm hitting java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException when I try running the web service client.
I have two projects on Eclipse: MyWebService, which contains the actual source code and from where I generate the wsdl; and MyWebServiceClient, which contains the proxy, service locator, soap binding stub, etc. (generated automatically by Eclipse)
The java methods that are later exposed as SOAP methods work normally when they're run as a Java application.
I changed the code a few times and replaced the method bodies with dummy contents (e.g., return 1 or return true straight away, without any logic processing). The stubs have worked perfectly.
In this sense one thing I noticed is that the problem only happens when I instantiate a class from "MyWebService" project on my JSP file (which sits on the Client project). And this led me to another thought: where are the references to "MyWebService" classes in the "MyWebServiceClient"? (I couldn't find any...)
The client was generated automatically, so I believe I am missing something here... If the references to the WS are missing, what would be the correct way to add them into MyWebServiceClient?
Thanks

The hibernate JARs hadn't been included to the web project (WEB-INF/lib), only to the Eclipse project
Thanks Leos.
