java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/validation/ParameterNameProvider

Question

I write small hibernate application and get following stacktrace:

org.hibernate.cfg.beanvalidation.IntegrationException: Error activating Bean Validation int         


        

Answer 1

Just remove the javax.validation dependency

    javax.validation
    validation-api
    1.0.0.GA

That fixed this particular problem on my end.
