Confluence: BeanDefinitionStoreException: does not load Plugins due to Spring-Scanner Exceptions

Matthias Steinböck

Our client upgraded from Confluence 6.4.1 to 6.7.2

Sometimes we get BeanDefinitionStoreExceptions on startup leaving some plugins disabled:

2018-03-24 12:54:14,794 ERROR [ThreadPoolAsyncTaskExecutor::Thread 18] [internal.dependencies.startup.DependencyWaiterApplicationContextExecutor] fail Unable to create application context for [at.example.confluence.exampleplugin.example-plugin], unsatisfied dependencies: none

The Atlassian-Support-Team told us:

We had similar cases where we found the trigger was from a couple of conflicting third party plugins which have dependencies on the system plugin results in both third party and systems plugins failing to be enabled during the startup.

We have both, 3rd party and custom plugins installed in the System.

How can "unsatisfied dependencies: none" cause such behaviour?

Here is the pom.xml for one of them:

Is there anything wrong that could lead to the aforementioned exception?

Can anybody help us clarifying if this exception is even related to bugs in pom.xml?

Does anybody have similar experiences with custom plugins in confluence (eg. not loading correctly, BeanDefinitionStoreException, InvalidStateException)?

Ohh you are using atlassian-spring-scanner 2.1.0. Have you upgraded it recently too?

Matthias Steinböck

Yes it is possible that the problem exists since the upgrade. But i have no evidence to support this. Did you have Problems with 2+? Did you switch back to an older one?
