java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.data.repository.config.RepositoryConfigurationSource.getAttribute

Question

I tried to integrate Spring Data Neo4j with the Spring framework but it doesn't seem to work. Seeing the problem seems to be a version issue, but I don't know exactly which version it is compatible with.    I used the version of the spring framework 5.0.5, Spring Data Neo4j 5.0.6

The following is my configuration information:

@Configuration
@EnableTransactionManagement
@EnableNeo4jRepositories("lissom.db.neo4j")
public class Neo4jConfig{
    @Bean
    public org.neo4j.ogm.config.Configuration configuration() {
        return new org.neo4j.ogm.config.Configuration.Builder()
          .uri("bolt://neo4j:admin@localhost:7687")
          .connectionPoolSize(150)
          .build();
     }

    @Bean
    public SessionFactory sessionFactory() {
        return new SessionFactory(configuration(),"lissom.db.neo4j.entity");
    }

    @Bean
    public Neo4jTransactionManager transactionManager() throws Exception {
        return new Neo4jTransactionManager(sessionFactory());
    }
}

The following is the exception information:

Answer 1

Your issue comes from incompatibilities between Spring and Spring Data Neo4j.

If you are using Spring Boot then you don't specify any versions when using Spring Boot's Gradle plugin as Spring Boot comes with dependency management for your dependencies ensuring compatibility across the references libraries.

In general, Spring Boot should be your master for dependency versions. Spring Data 2.x is not compatible with Spring Boot 1.x. Maybe a downgrade to Spring Data Neo4j 5.0.5 would help.
