NoSuchMethodError AuthenticationHandler.configure

[Oliver Hoff]

Hi,

I'm using the Jira Rest Java Client Library like described here:
https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JRJC/Tutorial

Here's the part of my Code, that establishes the connection:

public class JiraConnection {
    
    private URI jiraHost;
    private JiraRestClient restClient;
    private JerseyJiraRestClientFactory factory;
    private NullProgressMonitor pm;
	
	public JiraConnection() throws URISyntaxException{
        pm = new NullProgressMonitor();
        jiraHost =  new URI("http://myJiraHiost/");
        factory = new JerseyJiraRestClientFactory();
		//This is line 34:
        restClient = factory.createWithBasicHttpAuthentication(jiraHost, "x", "y"); 
    }
	...

When the Constructor of this class is called I recieve the following exception:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.atlassian.jira.rest.client.AuthenticationHandler.configure(Lcom/sun/jersey/client/apache/config/ApacheHttpClientConfig;)V
    at com.atlassian.jira.rest.client.internal.jersey.JerseyJiraRestClient.<init>(JerseyJiraRestClient.java:63)
    at com.atlassian.jira.rest.client.internal.jersey.JerseyJiraRestClientFactory.create(JerseyJiraRestClientFactory.java:34)
    at com.atlassian.jira.rest.client.internal.jersey.JerseyJiraRestClientFactory.createWithBasicHttpAuthentication(JerseyJiraRestClientFactory.java:39)
    at ...JiraConnection.<init>(JiraConnection.java:34) //this the constructor of my class
    ...

I googled for it an looked at the sourcecode of AuthetificationHandler, JerseyJiraRestClient.java:63 and other involved classes but couldn't detect the root cause.
Do you have any clues?

If you need more information let me know. Thanks for any advice!

Regards

I noticed that jira-rest-java-client(-core/plugin/api) have slightly different versions. Might this be the problem?

Yes, this is problem for sure. You have to depend only on jira-rest-java-client-core and I suggest using the most fresh version (2.0.0-m25).

This is because probably your code uses 2.0.0-m2 API which is aparently sligly different than 2.0.0-m25. If the problem still exists after fixing dependencies then please verify what JARs do you have on classpath inside glassfish container. And compare that with output of mvn dependency:list.

Also the jira-rest-java-client dependency should be the only one that you need for that project - all the jersey, apache client etc should be pulled from maven automatically with proper versions (unless you use other dependency that depends on other version of those libraries - but then you'll have fun anyway if the're not compatibile ;)).

Thank you, that solved the problem!

I removed the other dependencies and now only have jira-rest-java-client-core 2.0.0-m25 left.

Here is the pom.xml. I run the project in NetBeans on a Glassfish server.

I'm using JRJC 2.0.0

I noticed that jira-rest-java-client(-core/plugin/api) have slightly different versions. Might this be the problem?

Could you share pom.xml? What version of JRJC do you use? How do you run your project?
