Exception on starting up a Spring Data Neo4J 4.0.0 InProcessServer - neo4j

I got the following exception when instantiating a new org.springframework.data.neo4j.server.InProcessServer. Any help will be highly appreciated.

The neo4j-ogm version is really old- can you change that to 1.1.3?
You also should not need a dependency on neo4j-io

Neo4j Exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/neo4j/cypher/javacompat/ExecutionEngine on unmanaged extensions

I'm trying to use an unmanaged extension which uses 2.1.2 neo4j.version
on a neo4j server (version CE 3.5.11 Cypher version: CYPHER 3.5).
The neo4j server starts properly but when I invoke the Rest Service provided by that unmanaged extension via Postman I get the following error
javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/neo4j/cypher/javacompat/ExecutionEngine
the extension is installed via the following pom :

locally the extension works well all unit tests succeed.
Thank you for your help.
You need to set <neo4j.version> to 3.5.11, to be compatible with the neo4j server version.
If necessary, you may also need to fix the extension so that it will build and work correctly, since version 2.1.2 is extremely old.

Getting exception Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError AnnotationRepositoryConfigurationSource.<init>

I am getting below exception when I start my spring boot war file in a docker container. Strange thing is, same war file works absolutely fine when I deploy it in my windows tomcat as well as a linux tomcat. It is only failing when I launch it in docker container. Below are details.

I have tried to upgrade spring boot version from 1.3.5.RELEASE to higher version. But that makes me run into either build errors or ClassNotFound exception which I see on my windows laptop as well. Hence I am ruling out those as an option.
Kindly help.
For starters your dependencies are a mess. You hav so many overrides for the versions that a mix of versions of the same framework is inevitable. You are working around/against the framework instead of using it.
Judging from the way your dependencies are structured you aren't using the spring-boot-starter-parent as the <parent> of your pom.xml. So instead you should have a <dependencyManagement> block and import the spring-boot-dependencies dependency (See using maven without a parent).
So add the following to your pom.xml(assuming that the spring.boot.version is the actual Spring Boot version you want to use, 1.4.6.RELEASE).
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<!-- Import dependency management from Spring Boot -->
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>1.4.6.RELEASE</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
Then cleanup your dependencies by removing all the version elements and removing the spring-boot-starter-parent as dependency.

Remove the org.springframework.data dependencies, as those are included in the spring-boot-starter-data-jpa. The same applies to the hamcrest-all and Junit dependencies those are included in the spring-boot-starter-test dependencies. Spring Boot will also manage the version of lombok,HikariCP` and others.
Remove the unneeded properties from the <properties> section to clean up things. If you want to upgrade to a newer Spring Boot version the only thing you need to do is upgrade the version in the dependencyManagement section to get new versions of all related frameworks.

The root cause of this is rest-assured *ObjectMapperFactory package names changing, for example between versions 3.x and 4.x.
For anyone coming across this after the release of rest-assured 4.0.0, this problem can appear in Spring Boot projects - caused by a version mismatch between rest-assured and its transitive dependencies on json-path and xml-path in the spring-boot-dependencies bom.
If you specify a dependency io.rest-assured:rest-assured:4.0.0, you also need to explicitly include io.rest-assured:json-path:4.0.0 and io.rest-assured:xml-path:4.0.0, otherwise spring-boot-dependencies will pull in version 3.1.1 with the old *ObjectMapperFactory package names.
For anyone running into this I found this git page helpful as well : https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/issues/1168
And an example of my maven POM that ended up working is this :
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>rest-assured</artifactId>
<version>${io-rest-assured.version}</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<!--Added required depeendencies due to : https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/issues/1168 -->
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>rest-assured-common</artifactId>
<version>${io-rest-assured.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>json-path</artifactId>
<version>${io-rest-assured.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>xml-path</artifactId>
<version>${io-rest-assured.version}</version>
</dependency>
As Jim Riordan said you have to explicitly include io.rest-assured:json-path:4.0.0 and io.rest-assured:xml-path:4.0.0
I also needed to add an exclusion in my maven dependency io.rest-assured:spring-mock-mvc
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-mock-mvc</artifactId>
<version>4.0.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<artifactId>rest-assured</artifactId>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
Another options is to define dependency on rest-assured-all
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>rest-assured-all</artifactId>
<version>4.3.1</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
And exclude 3.X version if you are using Spring Mock MVC
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-mock-mvc</artifactId>
<version>3.3.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<artifactId>rest-assured</artifactId>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
In looking at the error, You need to put GSON in your classpath or POM dependancy section explicitly since it's an optional dependency to Rest Assured.
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.code.gson/gson -->
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.code.gson</groupId>
<artifactId>gson</artifactId>
<version>2.8.1</version>
</dependency>
For Maven projects, the code below works well with Spring Boot projects:
<properties>
<groovy.version>3.0.7</groovy.version>
<rest-assured.version>4.3.3</rest-assured.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>

Getting 'NoClassDefFoundError' (com/../JsonSchemaFactory) when trying to validate schema in Rest-Assured tool

We are trying to validate a JSON response to see if it matches a schema placed in the Eclipse ClassPath. This is designed to be a Maven project and I believe we have all the dependencies in place. But we are always getting the following error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/github/fge/jsonschema/main/JsonSchemaFactory

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.github.fge.jsonschema.main.JsonSchemaFactory

We have the following dependencies in place:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.jayway.restassured</groupId>
<artifactId>rest-assured</artifactId>
<version>2.9.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>

</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.fge</groupId>
<artifactId>json-schema-core</artifactId>
<version>1.2.5</version>
</dependency>
Not sure what we are missing here - can someone please help?
Vishnu, Just add following dependencies and remove all above dependencies.
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>rest-assured</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>json-schema-validator</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
</dependency>
