[Guice/ErrorInCustomProvider]: NoSuchMethodError: 'void ConstructorConstructor.<init>(Map)' at GsonModule.provideGson(GsonModule.java:99)

Question

I have a Spring Boot project which uses jClouds and has 2 classes as shown below:

@Configuration
public class S3Config {

  @Value("${amazon.s3.access-key}")
  private String accessKey;

  @Value("${amazon.s3.secret-key}")
  private String secretKey;

  @Value("${amazon.s3.region}")
  private String region;

  @Value("${amazon.s3.bucket-name}")
  private String bucketName;

  @Bean
  public BlobStoreContext context() {
    Properties properties = new Properties();
    properties.setProperty(S3Constants.PROPERTY_S3_VIRTUAL_HOST_BUCKETS, "false");
    BlobStoreContext context = ContextBuilder.newBuilder("aws-s3")
      .credentials(accessKey, secretKey)
      .endpoint("https://s3." + region + ".amazonaws.com")
      .overrides(properties)
      .buildView(BlobStoreContext.class);
    return context;
  }

  @Bean
  public BlobStore blobStore() {
    return context().getBlobStore();
  }

  public void createBucket(String bucketName) {
    BlobStoreContext context = context().unwrap();
    S3BlobStore s3BlobStore = S3BlobStore.class.cast(context.getBlobStore());
    s3BlobStore.createContainerInLocation(null, bucketName);
  }

  public List<String> listBucket() {
    BlobStoreContext context = context().unwrap();
    S3BlobStore s3BlobStore = S3BlobStore.class.cast(context.getBlobStore());
    PageSet<? extends StorageMetadata> containers = s3BlobStore.list();
    List<String> bucketNames = new ArrayList<>();
    for (StorageMetadata container : containers) {
      bucketNames.add(container.getName());
    }
    return bucketNames;
  }
}

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/s3")
public class S3Controller {

  @Autowired
  private S3Config s3Config;

  @PostMapping("/create-bucket")
  public void createBucket(@RequestParam String bucketName) {
    s3Config.createBucket(bucketName);
  }

  @GetMapping("/list-bucket")
  public List<String> listBucket() {
    return s3Config.listBucket();
  }
}

When I run the project, I get below error ( It is much longer for real)

I am a junior developer, I can not understand well and can not solve this problem for a while.

Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'context' defined in class path resource \[com/gokhan/jclouds1mv/config/S3Config.class\]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate \[org.jclouds.blobstore.BlobStoreContext\]: Factory method 'context' threw exception; nested exception is com.google.inject.CreationException: Unable to create injector, see the following errors:

   at GsonWrapper.\<init\>(GsonWrapper.java:38)
   \_ for 1st parameter

   while locating GsonWrapper
   while locating Json

Is there anyone who can help for this please?

Tried some solutions in internet, however most of them out of date.

Answer 1

I solved this issue by adding Following dependencies:

<dependencies>
<!-- Other dependencies -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.code.gson</groupId>
    <artifactId>gson</artifactId>
    <version>2.8.8</version> <!-- Update to the latest compatible version -->
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.inject</groupId>
    <artifactId>guice</artifactId>
    <version>5.1.0</version> <!-- Update to the latest compatible version -->
</dependency>
<!-- Other dependencies -->

update the version based on your project version.
