I am doing a prototype using Spring Boot on an existing project with many Hibernate dependencies. I am trying to define a custom LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean and it is here that I get this error:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.persistence.JoinColumn.foreignKey()Ljavax/persistence/ForeignKey;
I have tried updating my hibernate versions (could not use all latest versions due to project backward compatibility causing many other compile errors) but with the following hibernate dependency graph could get it to compile but still get this runtime dependency error. When I searched for this error all results to pointed to upgrade of Hibernate 4 and JPA 2.1. We were already using Hibernate 4+, so just changed the version a little higher but no luck. The following dependency graph from Gradle shows that I do not have any old version of "org.hibernate.javax.persistence:hibernate-jpa-2.0-api"

Any pointers will be of much help.

Try excluding dependencies that you don't need and enforcing versions for those you want. E.g.:
configurations.all { conf ->
exclude group: 'org.hibernate', module: 'hibernate-annotations'
resolutionStrategy {
// Forces one verion among the project
force "org.hibernate.common:hibernate-commons-annotations:4.0.5.Final"
}
}
