Error creating bean with name 'defaultValidator' defined in class path resource

I am getting the following Error while trying to deploy my spring boot application on JBOSS. It works well on embedded Tomcat Server though. I tried to browse through Stack overflow to find similar issues. Could not find a solution yet. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Error starting ApplicationContext. To display the conditions report re-run your application with 'debug' enabled.

I resolved it in springboot2.0 by adding org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-validation in the build.gradle https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot-starter-validation

I had the same exception as below. I was using Tomcat 7 to deploy a spring boot web app. I changed it to tomcat 8 and it resolved. but its obvious that changing the server is not a easy and feasible solution in most of the case. adding the missing dependency for java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/el/ELManager would resolve it.

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'defaultValidator' defined in class path resource [org/sprin gframework/boot/autoconfigure/validation/ValidationAutoConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframe work.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.validation.beanvalidation.LocalValidatorFactoryBean]: Factory method 'defaul tValidator' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/el/ELManager at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.ConstructorResolver.instantiate(ConstructorResolver.java:656)

The error is thrown from the org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/validation/ package if the spring boot is unable to auto configure the bean.The possible reasons for this error includes dependencies mismatch, broken dependencies or missing dependencies.Here is the solution

  1. Update maven project by right clicking on your project,scroll down to maven and in side bar and choose update maven project. Mark force update of snapshots/releases checkbox and click ok (Eclipse / STS IDE). This will update the dependencies and build the project fixing dependencies related problem.

enter image description here

  1. If the error is not resolved you can also try updating your bean validation api manually by adding the dependency to your pom file. https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax.validation/validation-api/2.0.1.Final

I update the [Bean Validation API] dependency to the latest one. It fixed my problem.

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax.validation/validation-api -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.validation</groupId>
    <artifactId>validation-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.1.Final</version>
</dependency>

I was getting the same error when trying to use spring boot in a Java 9 modularized application. In the end I had to require com.fasterxml.classmate. I managed to start a rest api with an echo controller with the following pom dependecies and module-info:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
        </dependency>

module mymodule {
    requires spring.boot;
    requires spring.boot.autoconfigure;
    requires spring.core;
    requires spring.web;
    requires com.fasterxml.classmate;

    exports mymodule;

    opens mymodule;
}

I was also fetching the same issue when i tried to run my spring boot application. After a lot of search i got my problem is that it might be missing Spring JPA, Hibernate, Mysql or maybe jackson in my pom.xml file. so i just added this dependency and it works fine.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-orm</artifactId>        
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>            
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>mysql</groupId>
    <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId> 
 </dependency>

it might help, Thank you
