NoSuchMethodError: com.google.common.base.Preconditions.checkArgument(ZLjava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;)

Question

I am programming an application with the telegram-bot-api. I want to send a message to a telegramgroup via the bot. This works fine, if I run the jar-application in Eclipse. But if I test it in a Spigotplugin on my localhost, I get this error:

[02:40:55 ERROR]: Error occurred while enabling TelegramTest v0.0.1 (Is it up to date?)
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.google.common.base.Preconditions.checkArgument(ZLjava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;)V

I am using the Telegram-Bot-API-Plugin for Spigot to load the TelegramAPI and google guava stuff. I am using guava 28.1-jre This is my pom.xml:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</project>

And this is my plugin:

package de.iltisauge.telegram;

import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;

public class TestTelegram extends JavaPlugin {

    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        Bot bot = new Bot("BOTNAME", "BOT_TOKEN");
        bot.sendMessage(CHAT_ID, 0, "Bot wurde gestartet!");
    }
}

package de.iltisauge.telegram;

import org.telegram.telegrambots.bots.TelegramLongPollingBot;
import org.telegram.telegrambots.meta.api.methods.send.SendMessage;
import org.telegram.telegrambots.meta.api.objects.Update;
import org.telegram.telegrambots.meta.exceptions.TelegramApiException;

public class Bot extends TelegramLongPollingBot {

      private String username;

      private String token;

      public Bot(String username, String token) {
        this.username = username;
        this.token = token;
      }

      public void onUpdateReceived(Update update) {
      }

      public void sendMessage(long chatId, int replyId, String text) {
          try {
              execute(new SendMessage().setChatId(Long.valueOf(chatId))
                      .setText(text).setReplyToMessageId(Integer.valueOf(replyId)));
          } catch (TelegramApiException e) {
              e.printStackTrace();
          } 
      }

    public String getBotUsername() {
        return username;
    }

    public String getBotToken() {
        return token;
    }
}

I searched for answers on stackoverflow but I did not find a solution.

Answer 1

Run a mvn dependency:tree on the location of your pom and check whether there are more than one guava dependency. If it does then exclude the older versions using:

<exclusions>
    <exlcusion>
        <groupId>com.google.guava</groupId>
        <artifactId>guava</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
</exclusions>

on that dependency which brings the older version. Then try your program again. And if it does not work please add the result of the mvn dependency:tree so that I can have a better look at that.
