Spring boot 2.2 activemq jetty conflict

I am trying to upgrade Spring boot to the version 2.2 together with jetty starter.
I get these errors due to jetty version conflict
The following method did not exist:
'org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.server.NativeWebSocketConfiguration org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.server.NativeWebSocketServletContainerInitializer.initialize(org.eclipse.jetty.servlet.ServletContextHandler)'
The method's class, org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.server.NativeWebSocketServletContainerInitializer, is available from the following locations:
jar:file:/some-dir/target/p3.0.166-SNAPSHOT.war!/WEB-INF/lib/jetty-all-9.4.19.v20190610-uber.jar!/org/eclipse/jetty/websocket/server/NativeWebSocketServletContainerInitializer.class
jar:file:/some-dir/target/p3.0.166-SNAPSHOT.war!/WEB-INF/lib/websocket-server-9.4.20.v20190813.jar!/org/eclipse/jetty/websocket/server/NativeWebSocketServletContainerInitializer.class
I have activemq dependency which brings in it's own jetty-all versioned 9.4.19 dependency which is in conflict with spring-boot 2.2 jetty (9.4.20)
And part of my pom.xml is:

Any idea how I can fix this?

ActiveMQ is wrong here.
jetty-all is not meant to be used as a dependency in a project.
See https://www.eclipse.org/lists/jetty-users/msg06030.html
It only exists as a command line tool for the documentation to educate folks about basic featureset of Jetty.
It does not, and cannot, contain all of Jetty.
A single artifact with everything that Jetty produces is impossible.
As #Shilan pointed out, excluding jetty-all is the correct solution.
The use of the other appropriate dependencies (by spring-boot-starter-jetty it seems) will already pull in the correct Jetty transitive dependencies that you need.
You can use $ mvn dependency:tree from the command line to see this (before and after excluding jetty-all)
You might want to run one of the duplicate class finder maven plugins to see what other duplicate classes you have going on and correct for those as well.

Wildfly10 Server giving ClassCastException on deploying EJB module

I'm trying to move from wildfly9 to wildfly 10.
My code works properly on wildfly9
But when I try to deploy my ejb module on wildfly 10 I get the following error:
java.lang.ClassCastException: org.dom4j.DocumentFactory cannot be cast to org.dom4j.DocumentFactory
I tried all the options available out there to correct this error but nothing helped me.
Here are the dependencies that i have in my pom

According to the solutions available I have found the the problem is related to hibernate, I have updated hibernate dependencies, changing the scope and also adding dom4j dependency but nothing worked.
The same module gets deployed without any problem on wildfly 9.
Can anybody help me out in resolving this error.

I have found the solution of my question may be it will help others.
i got the solution from this blog.
I added the line in my war's MANIFEST.MF file:
Open {your war}/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
Add this line at the end - Dependencies: org.dom4j export
and added the following line in persistence.xml:
<property name="hibernate.listeners.envers.autoRegister" value="false"/ >
And it worked for me.

You problem is this:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
<version>5.1.0.Final</version>
</dependency>
It brings in the old dom4j jar: Reference this ticket: org.dom4j.DocumentFactory cannot be cast to org.dom4j.DocumentFactory.
You either need to remove it, declare it as provided in scope, or not run the application on the Wildfly Server (which is probably not your preferred option).

How do I decide the dependencies for my maven project?

So,
As of now, I do not have knowledge about bean/spring-webflow/hibernate etc...
What is the approach to know the dependencies required for my "spring nature" project?

Maven projects need dependencies instead of including jar files by build path.when you create a maven project, it requires the library files for the methods you use.you add the dependencies in pom.xml file and when you execute the maven build command the files are automatically downloaded from the internet and included in the project.
You can control the files to download.
you can just add dependencies of the library files you need in your source code.
you decide your dependencies by the methods you use in your source code.
for example.you are using sql database in your project you must need a jar file for the sql driver.
if you have a maven project you just have to add the dependency of the sql in pom.xml

Dependencies list depends on your project nature and usage of .jar relative files.
Simple if you want to use sql in your project then you only need to add sql dependencies in your pom.xml and in the same way if you use junit in your project then you will add junit dependencies in pom.xml in this way after tag
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.8.2</version>
</dependency>
no need of extra dependencies that are not being used in project.
Note that in maven dependencies repository you will see some extra dependencies. These are ones which maven used for itself or for other dependencies.

The "Spring nature" is related to how your IDE works with Spring plug-in. In eclipse, a "project nature" creates an association between the a project and a tool, plug-in, or feature set. By adding a nature to an eclipse project, you tell an eclipse plug-in that it is configured to use that project. By adding the "Spring Project Nature" to your project, you are enabling eclipse's spring plugin to work with your project.
Add dependencies on need basis. if you don't need hibernate or web-flow don't add it.Its like adding required toppings to your pizza. If you dont want mushroom, dont add it :)

What maven artifacts do I need for spring hibernate and mysql support?

I have a IDEA project using maven2.
I want to use hibernate + mysql, what dependancies do I need?

first of all, I separate the versions from the artifacts:
<properties>
<spring.version>3.0.3.RELEASE</spring.version>
<hibernate.version>3.5.3-Final</hibernate.version>
<mysql.version>5.1.13</mysql.version>
<junit.version>4.7</junit.version>
</properties>
then I reference them like this:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-orm</artifactId>
<version>${spring.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>${mysql.version}</version>
<!-- perhaps using scope = provided, as this will often
be present on the app server -->
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
<!-- or hibernate-entitymanager if you use jpa -->
<version>${hibernate.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>${junit.version}</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
That way you keep the versions all in one place and can easily update them, especially if you reference e.g. multiple spring artifacts.
BTW: these should be the current versions, but you can always look up current versions using MvnRepository.com

Pasting these dependencies into pom.xml after <depdendencies> should work:
<!-- MySQL database driver -->
<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>5.1.9</version>
</dependency>
<!-- Hibernate framework -->
<dependency>

</dependency>

<artifactId>dom4j</artifactId>
<version>1.6.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>

</dependency>
<dependency>

</dependency>
<!-- Hibernate library dependecy end -->
Shamelessly cloned from http://www.mkyong.com/hibernate/quick-start-maven-hibernate-mysql-example/ (with the addition of jta as recommended by a commenter)
You may want to tweak the version numbers on the dependencies.
IntelliJ IDEA 9 can find Maven dependencies based on class name. If you start using a class which isn't available in the current dependencies you can get IntelliJ to help find it by using Alt-Enter.
I used this to great effect with a Java-base Subversion hook implementation I am building at work. I was able to get SVNKit and Google Guice dependencies into my project fairly easily this way.
MySQL in your case may be trickier since it is more of a runtime dependency when using Hibernate.

Java - getting jar dependencies right

I'm relatively new to Java & maven, and so to get to know my way around, I decided to do a project as a means for learning.
I picked a pretty common stack :
Java 1.6
Hibernate (with annotations)
Spring (with annotations)
JUnit 4
Tomcat
Oracle XE / In-mem hsqldb
By far one of the biggest problems I've experienced is getting the correct combination of jar versions to get a stable environment. It's an issue I'm still fighting with over two months later.
Quite often I get noSuchMethod or classNotFound exceptions thrown, and it turns out to be that Spring module A x.x.x is not compatible with Hibernate module B y.y.y. Or even, just as commonly, spring module A x.x.x is not compatible with spring module B y.y.y
I expected in starting from a clean slate, version dependencies should be minimal -- just grab the latest version and everything should work... but that has not been the case.
I expected that using maven would simplify this process, and no doubt it has.
But it's certainly be far from painless. I'd have thought that if module A requires a specific version of module B, that it be enforced somewhere along the line, and certinaly provide more meaningful messages that just "noSuchMethod".
Additionally, it seems that the only way I discover these problems is to try a new method call, get the dreaded noSuchMethod error, and start googling.
Have I missed something along the way here that has made this more difficult on myself than it needed to be?
For reference, here's the dependencies section of my pom...if you notice anything horrendously non-standard, please let me know!

One thing that I've found challenging is determining what is in each package, especially from Spring.
To that end, I've found Netbeans' support for maven to be outstanding in how it lets you know what libraries are pulled in by each requirement. 6.7 Beta contains a graphical tree which is outstanding, and m2eclipse also has a very nice graphical dependency tree. How else would you know that spring-orm includes, spring-beans, spring-core, spring-context, and spring-tx? You can ask maven for the dependencies using the dependency plugin from the command line, but the graphical representation is quite handy. dependency:tree is the goal you want to run. Obviously you can also run that from Netbeans or Eclipse.
So, as an example of one of your collisions:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-annotations</artifactId>
<version>3.4.0.GA</version>
</dependency>
actually includes hibernate-commons-annotations-3.1.0.GA not 3.3. It also includes hibernate-core-3.3.0.SP1, not 3.3.1.GA.
I would start at your "biggest" component, and start to see what parts that already includes and only add what is missing. Even then, double check that you don't have a duplicate dependency and if need be, exclude the duplicate as shown in the answer to this question.

If you are using eclipse, then you should download the maven plugin from sonatype here http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/.
This comes with a useful graphic visualisation of your dependencies (in particular transitive dependencies - dependencies you have not explicitly defined in your POM), and also shows conflicting dependencies.
Update: from the comments below, your mileage may vary.
