java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionIdListener

Question

I have two projects that run correctly by themselves but when I include MailSender in TradingFramework I get this NoClassDefFoundError:

I have excluded the conflicting jars but still it is the same. Here are the pom.xml files:

Answer 1

After spending 4 hours on this thing, finally found the solution. The thing is since Servlet API 5.0, the API moved from the package javax.servlet to jakarta.servlet So instead of adding dependency of javax , add dependency of jakarta in pom of the project

   <dependency>
      <groupId>jakarta.servlet</groupId>
      <artifactId>jakarta.servlet-api</artifactId>
      <version>5.0.0</version>
   </dependency>

Answer 2

<!-- http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax.servlet/javax.servlet-api -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>

note to

javax.servlet-api

instead of

servlet-api

Answer 3

include maven dependency for javax.servlet api, something like this

<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
