Cxf + wss4j + maven NoSuchMethod error

Question

trying to use cxf + wss4j using maven. Created both a service and a client without any compilation problems. The service works great in tomcat.
Question: When I run the client code, I get "java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.xml.security.utils.I18n.init (Ljava / util / ResourceBundle;) V". This class is in the xmlsec jar, which comes with the cxf distribution.

pom.xml for client project

Edit: Using wss4j to try the username token, client code:

 public static void main(String[] args) { ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("spring-context.xml"); HelloWorld helloworld= (HelloWorld) context.getBean("helloClient"); HelloRequest hreq = new HelloRequest(); hreq.setRequestMsg("This is client"); HelloResponse hres = helloworld.sayHello(hreq); System.out.println(hres.getResponseMsg()); }

Answer 1

CXF 3.0.0 does not work with WSS4J 1.6.15. Instead, you need to use WSS4J 2.0.0.

Answer 2

I had the same problem too. It is resolved using the dependency "wss4j-ws-security-common-2.0.3.jar"

For more information on wss4j 2.0.0 migration, see " http://ws.apache.org/wss4j/migration/wss4j20.html "

Answer 3

You can find wss4j in another group in maven:

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.wss4j/wss4j/2.1.7

Answer 4

When you add the wss4j dependency, make sure you add it as pom , otherwise you will have an error. It could be addiction in your pom

  <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.wss4j</groupId> <artifactId>wss4j</artifactId> <version>2.1.7</version> <type>pom</type> </dependency> 

Also, be sure to specify the central maven repository so that it can find it for sure:

  <repositories> <repository> <id>central</id> <url>http://central.maven.org/maven2/</url> <releases> <enabled>true</enabled> </releases> </repository> </repositories> 

Here it is.

Answer 5

There was exactly the same problem. In my case, updating to wss4j 2.xx did not help. I had 2 overlapping dependencies, and as soon as I removed the extra wss4j and relied only on spring-ws-security , everything worked fine:

 <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.ws</groupId> <artifactId>spring-ws-security</artifactId> <version>3.0.1.RELEASE</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.ws.security</groupId> <artifactId>wss4j</artifactId> <version>1.6.15</version>
