Hibernate 5 java.lang.NoSuchMethodError org.jboss.logging.Logger.debugf

Question

I have a problem when I deploy a webapp with hibernate 5

Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.logging.Logger.debugf(Ljava/lang/String;I)V

With Hibernate 4 everything is OK.

I had a look at the class NamedQueryRepository at line 149. That class is calling the method debugf in this way

        log.debugf( "Checking %s named HQL queries", namedQueryDefinitionMap.size() );

I can not see the problem

Here is my dependency tree

Answer 1

In glass fish This problem is caused by collision with dependencies of glassfish modules. If you check lib list in glassfishdir/modules you would see boss-logging.jar. You can delete it and replace with latest such as org.jboss.logging:jboss-logging:jar:3.3.0.Final. It worked for me.
