NoSuchMethodError: MongoPersistentEntity.getPreferredConstructor

[martypitt]

I have a project that combines both MongoDB and JPA persistence strategies, so uses both of the associated projects.

After upgrading versions I get the following error when running a unit test:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.MongoPersistentEntity.getPreferredConstructor()Lorg/springframework/data/mapping/PreferredConstructor;
	at org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.convert.MappedConstructor.<init>(MappedConstructor.java:56)
	at org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.convert.MappingMongoConverter.read(MappingMongoConverter.java:212)
	at org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.convert.MappingMongoConverter.read(MappingMongoConverter.java:200)
	at org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.convert.MappingMongoConverter.read(MappingMongoConverter.java:164)
	at org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.convert.MappingMongoConverter.read(MappingMongoConverter.java:73)
..(snip)

My versions declared in the pom are as follows:

	<properties>
		<spring.data.jpa.version>1.1.0.RC1</spring.data.jpa.version>
		<spring.data.mongo.version>1.0.1.RELEASE</spring.data.mongo.version>
		<query.dsl.version>2.3.0</query.dsl.version>
	</properties>

I assume this is a conflcit between version. Previously I was using:

	<properties>
		<spring.data.jpa.version> 1.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT</spring.data.jpa.version>
		<spring.data.mongo.version>1.0.0.RC1</spring.data.mongo.version>
		<query.dsl.version>2.3.0</query.dsl.version>
	</properties>

Which worked.

However, I assume that the build snapshot for JPA has changed, as I'm now getting:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/data/mapping/model/SpELAwareParameterValueProvider

Is there a working combination of the two projects currently?

[martypitt]

After further investigation, it appears the conflict is in the dependency versions of spring-data-commons-core

spring-data-jpa:1.1.0.RC1 -> spring-data-commons-core:1.3.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT
spring-data-mongodb:1.0.1.RELEASE -> spring-data-commons-core:1.2.1.RELEASE

I'm no closer to resolving the issue, just sharing where the conflict appears to stem from.

[martypitt]

Unfortunately, going to spring-data-mongodb:1.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT solves the problem, and introduces another.

Given the dependencies of:
spring-data-jpa:1.1.0.RC1
spring-data-mongodb:1.0.1.RELEASE
spring-data-commons-core:1.3.0.M1

I get a null pointer error as follows:

I have the same configuration and I'm getting the same exception. I don't have a work around yet.

I am getting this error too.
