Error Creating Bean - Autowiring of dependencies failed

Question

I am getting this error when I run my spring-mvc application :

Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory' defined in com.config.SpringConfig: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.AbstractMethodError

Error creating bean with name 'personDAOImpl': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private org.hibernate.SessionFactory com.dao.PersonDAOImpl.sessionFactory; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory' defined in com.config.SpringConfig: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.AbstractMethodError

I have also checked the dependencies in my pom.xml

<!-- Spring -->
<spring-framework.version>4.2.4.RELEASE</spring-framework.version>

<!-- Hibernate / JPA -->
<hibernate.version>5.2.1.Final</hibernate.version>

Apart from this, I have specified ${spring-framework.version} and ${hibernate.version} in the version of all the dependencies

Answer 1

According to docs you should update your Spring dependency to 4.3 if you want to use Hibernate 5.2.

Also you have to correct dependencies for Hibernate search (it's releases are different then Hibernate's core).

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-search-orm</artifactId>
        <version>5.5.4.Final</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-search-engine</artifactId>
        <version>5.5.4.Final</version>
    </dependency>
