java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to introspect Class

java spring spring-boot elasticsearch

134,716

Solution 1

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.data.elasticsearch.core.ElasticsearchOperations

This error message means that the jar containing this class is not on the application classpath.

Add spring-data-elasticsearch jar to it, and your error should be gone.

if you are using maven, add the jar to the classpath this way :

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-data-elasticsearch</artifactId>
    <version>3.2.5.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

The version that you should use depends on the version of elastic search you are connecting to :

+--------------+----------------------------+----------------+-------------+
| Spring Data  | Spring Data Elasticsearch  | Elasticsearch  | Spring Boot |
+--------------+----------------------------+----------------+-------------+
| 2021.1       | 4.3.x                      |         7.15.2 | 2.5.x       |

You need to add spring-data-elasticsearch.jar file into your class path. The error is showing because of this small mistake.

I am trying to add Elasticsearch to my project. I have addded the necessary dependencies to my pom.xml file. When I run the server I am getting this error:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to introspect Class

Please help me solve this problem.

Also I tried to find elasticsearch.yml file in eclipse to configure node but there is no such file. where Can i find elasticsearch.yml file.

Please tell me what am i doing wrong here? Problem is related to dependancies?

Could you include the stacktrace that you got along with the error message ?

Thierry over 5 years

@vidy you're next error message seems to say that elastic search servers you have configured in your application are not there (not started, not at this address, and / or not listening on right port). Please take also a moment to read the stackoverflow faq : to keep the site usable for everybody, comments should be related to the answer / question they are on, and not contains new questions to solve. If you have a new problem, you should raise a new question :)
Abdullah Khaled about 2 years

just a small note, please remove the versions from your dependencies, if they are spring-* for sure, and let the parent handle them
Thierry about 2 years

@AbdullahKhaled The compatibility table is useful for those not using spring boot as parent artifact, to know quickly which version to include in their project.
