Correct the classpath of your application so that it contains a single, compatible version of org.axonframework.eventsourcing.eventstore.jpa

Question

I am working on Spring Boot + Axon example. Following https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBKZOTe9QM4&list=PL4O1nDpoa5KTq5QKX9ueK-0QCJ-6Wm_ma link from the youtube and using the latest dependencies.

If I used axon-core and axon-amqp version to 3.0-RC1 then it works fine. But I use 3.4 version, then I get the below error on starup. Any quick help ?

Answer 1

Here is the issue:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.axonframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>axon-spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
        <version>3.0-RC1</version>
    </dependency>

should be:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.axonframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>axon-spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
        <version>3.4</version>
    </dependency>

since you upgraded the axon library to v3.4.
