Context initialization failed - NoSuchMethodError: AntPathMatcher.setCaseSensitive()

Question

After configuring spring security in my spring mvc application I get the follow error when running it:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: E         


        

Answer 1

The setCaseSensitive() method of AntPathMatcher does not exists on spring-core-4.1.x. You have to use the 4.2.x version. See the AntPathMatcher on 4.1.X.RELEASE and AntPathMatcher on 4.2.X.RELEASE.
