how to solve Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.xml.bind.JAXBException migrating to Java 11(Openjdk-11.0.1 )

Question

I have installed OpenJDK 11.0.1 and when i try to run my application using mvn install, i get the following error, i have added the necessary dependency as fix by adding javax.xml.bind to my pom.xml but it doesn't seem to work, anybody faced this problem? do i need to do anything else? my mvn --version returns this

Maven home: /usr/local/Cellar/maven/3.5.2/libexec
Java version: 11.0.1, vendor: Oracle Corporation
Java home: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home
Default locale: en_GB, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.14.2", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"

i add this but didn't fix the problem

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>

and here is what i get

Solution 1

You need add this dependency as well,

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
    <version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>

Solution 2

I had a similar issue before when I tried to deploy my Spring Boot app to a stand-alone servlet container which carries its own JAXB implementation. Your application was forced to use the JAXB library from the environment instead of using the jaxb-api from Maven dependency. You can fix that by including a single line in your Application.java.

public static void main(String[] args) {
    // com.sun.xml.bind.v2.ContextFactory comes from within your depedency
    System.setProperty("javax.xml.bind.JAXBContextFactory", "com.sun.xml.bind.v2.ContextFactory");

    SpringApplication.run(MonolithicApplication.class, args);
}
