Error because migrating from 1.1 to 1.1.5

[YSutarko]

At first my application is going well, but i'm interested in using the fileupload to database feature of the spring ibatis support
(class org.springframework.orm.ibatis.support.BlobSeriali zableTypeHandler)
which is in version 1.1.5

but when i changed the spring.jar from 1.1 to 1.1.5, an error like this occured:

this particular line is strange:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.util.Assert.hasText(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String

because if i see in the source, there is a method like this...
does anyone have this problem?

[Rod Johnson]

Are you sure there aren't any old Spring JARs on your classpath?

[YSutarko]

yes..

i only use two (2) spring related jar before, which is
spring.jar (1.1) and spring-sandbox.jar (i'm using this to use the commons validator feature)
and when i replaced the old spring.jar, it encountered this error.. is it maybe because of the spring-andbox.jar?

[robh]

This is definitely a class loading issue, make sure you are not mixing JARS from different version of Spring.

Rob

[YSutarko]

is there anyone who has tried spring-sandbox.jar and spring.jar 1.1.5
combined? (i'm using sandbox to use the common validaotr)

because... this class loading problem still persists.. even though i have done the following thing:
- i search ALL spring.jar files in my computer
- i deleted them ALL
- i download a fresh file (spring-sandbox.jar and spring.jar)
- i paste that file in my webapp's WEB-INF/lib
- i deploy to tomcat
but still the same error message ..

maybe its just me.. but im now desperate..

[YSutarko]

this is the stacktrace

[YSutarko]

well.. guessing from the fact that theres no one answering my problem, this is absolutely my fault or mistake

[YSutarko]

so.. i finally found the problem
i do not know if this is my mistake or not..
but as you said, this is a class loading issue
so here's what i do:

1. i unzipped the spring-sandbox.jar
2. i go to folder org/springframework/util
3. i deleted the class Assert.class, because this class is already in the original spring.jar
4. i zip the spring sandbox again

and the app is running well...

[sds]

I have the same problem. I just switched the order of the libraries in the classpath, first spring-1.1.5, then spring-sandbox.
