java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE

Question

When trying to submit my topology through StormSubmitter, I am getting -

Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: INSTANCE  
at org.apache.http.impl.io.Defaul         


        

Answer 1

Harsh is right its in the storm class path.

So what I did to make this work was remove the httpclient and httpcore that comes with storm and replaced them with newer version 4.3.3 and 4.3.2 respectively. This changes the classpath the works/nimbus/supervisor uses to start. You can run storm classpath and it print the class path out.

[nimbus ~]$ storm classpath
...../storm-0.8.2/lib/httpclient-4.3.3.jar:..../storm-0.8.2/lib/httpcore-4.3.2.jar.....

I am not sure this is a very good work around, I am not sure what part of storm uses this jar.

if you look at the python storm code you see that it will put all jars in the storm root and storm/lib

def get_classpath(extrajars):
    ret = get_jars_full(STORM_DIR)
    ret.extend(get_jars_full(STORM_DIR + "/lib"))
    ret.extend(extrajars)
    return normclasspath(":".join(ret))

I faced similar issue like this, In my class path there was two jar contains same class, httpcore-4.3 and apache-httpcomponents-httpcore, I have removed apache-httpcomponents-httpcore from class path solved the issue.

Answer 3

This is probably a dependency issue.

It's a very unclear error message but I found something similar here: Hibernate NoSuchFieldError INSTANCE but only with Struts 1?

Answer 4

I had the below jar files in the path inside the plugin folder:
./var/lib/jenkins/plugins/build-pipeline-plugin/WEB-INF/lib/httpcore-4.2.1.jar
./var/lib/jenkins/plugins/git-client/WEB-INF/lib/httpcore-4.3.2.jar
./var/lib/jenkins/plugins/maven-plugin/WEB-INF/lib/httpcore-4.2.4.jar

After, I removed the below file, it worked for me
/var/lib/jenkins/plugins/build-pipeline-plugin/WEB-INF/lib/httpcore-4.2.1.jar
