Answer 1

You can do what other people suggest which is to exclude xml-apis which worked fine with me, but if your are using and an old jaxb-api replace them with jakarta.xml.bind-api:

    jakarta.xml.bind
    jakarta.xml.bind-api
    2.3.3

and of course upgrade your jaxb-impl to match the same api:

    com.sun.xml.bind
    jaxb-impl
    2.3.3
