Hello All,I am new to Activiti with a project where I try to setup an environment which integrates Activiti, Spring and Hibernate.The application is fine when I only register the processEngine bean, but it will hit the following error when I try to register runtimeService bean through:<bean id="r

And I just tried to access the processEngine in the web app instead of unit tests. I put a little segment of code inside controller and try to access the page in the browser which will in turn trigger the controller.

It now gives me the same error of NoSuchMethodError.

Hello All,

After spending some time this morning with the problem, I believe I have resolved the issue.

Apparently, I have an unnecessary dependency


<dependency>
      <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-support</artifactId>
      <version>2.0</version>
   </dependency>

in my POM and it caused conflict with some other packages. Essentially, the executing code was no longer following the expected path anymore.

I removed this dependency and upgraded to Activiti 5.10 and Spring 3.1.2.Final as they are perfectly compatible with each other.

Activiti 5.9 seems to be depending on Spring 3.0.3.Final and I didn't want to take chances.

This solved the issue. Thank you for your time!

Thanks for posting back the solution. I would have guessed it was a library issue, but I would have looked for it in Hibernate, not in Spring!
