Solution 1

Solved: It seems like the spring security libraries were not added to the artifact in the project build configuration. Also I've changed the SecurityConfiguration class body with:

@Autowired
public void configureGlobal(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception {
    auth
        .inMemoryAuthentication()
        .withUser("user").password("password").roles("USER").and()
        .withUser("admin").password("password").roles("USER","ADMIN");
}

@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
    http.authorizeRequests()
        .antMatchers("/").permitAll()
        .antMatchers("/admin").access("hasRole('ADMIN')")
        .and().formLogin();
        http.csrf().disable();
}

I've added the initializer class witch extends AbstractSecurityWebApplicationInitializer

package com.dragos.config;

import org.springframework.security.web.context.AbstractSecurityWebApplicationInitializer;

public class SecurityWebApplicationInitializer extends AbstractSecurityWebApplicationInitializer {
}

Solution 2

add proper spring security libraries.if still not working make sure to clean your tomcat directory

 <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-security-web</artifactId>
        <version>${springsecurity.version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-security-config</artifactId>
        <version>${springsecurity.version}</version>
    </dependency>

    I am having an issue with Spring Security. I am trying to configure it for a simple login but I am getting an error. Here is the code for the configuration:

    package com.drg.AppConfig;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.authentication.builders.AuthenticationManagerBuilder;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.EnableWebSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter;

/**
 * Created by me on 09-Aug-17.
 */

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
    @Override
    protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception {
        auth.inMemoryAuthentication()
                .withUser("user").password("password").roles("USER").and()
                .withUser("admin").password("password").roles("USER","ADMIN");
    }

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        http.authorizeRequests()
                .antMatchers("/auth").permitAll()
                .antMatchers("/").permitAll()
                .antMatchers("/program/").access("hasRole(ROLE_USER')")
                .antMatchers("/admin").access("hasRole(ROLE_ADMIN')")
                .anyRequest().permitAll();
    }

}

    And here is the error:

    For Spring Security I've added the following dependencies:

    <dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-security-core</artifactId>
    <version>4.2.3.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>


<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-security-web</artifactId>

</dependency>

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.security/spring-security-config -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-security-config</artifactId>
    <version>4.2.3.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

    Could someone please help me find a solution here? How can I avoid the exception I am getting. Please be aware that the class is downloaded from the maven dependency.

      Could do you verify in your m2 repository if you have the jar spring-security-config-4.2.3-RELEASE.jar? Also I have a similar configuration but I dont use the Configuration and EnableWebSecurity in the class

      in your ide see maven dependencies and check if spring-security jar is added and has class inside it

      You say the class has been downloaded due to the dependency but are you sure? Similar to what others have said, have you done a mvn clean install in the project directory and have seen the dependency get downloaded from the maven repository?
