Spring Boot 1.15.11: `java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError` about mongock

[alexciornii]

@nicholassmith Please share more of the stack trace. Also try to use 3.2.2.BETA version of mongock-spring.

Thanks @nicholassmith.
At first I can see one important thing, you are mixing standalone mongock with springMongock,. You're probably using Springboot, so I suggest this:
new SpringBootMongockBuilder(mongoClient, "yourDbName", "com.package.to.be.scanned.for.changesets") .setApplicationContext(springContext) .setLockQuickConfig() .build();

SpringContext is optional, but very helpful if you require any other dependency than MongoTempalte/MongoDatabase in your changeSet.

The lock is also optional, but highly recommended as without this, the lock behaviour is the legacy one, and is very poor, if anything happens, doesn't unlock for 24hours, but doesn't throw any exception if lock cannot be acquired.

Also, if you use the last versión, 3.2.2.BETA, as @alexciornii suggest, you can initialise SpringBootMongockBuilder with MongoTemplate, having something like this:

new SpringBootMongockBuilder(mongotemplate,"com.package.to.be.scanned.for.changesets") .setApplicationContext(springContext) .setLockQuickConfig() .build();

Please have a try with that, and let us know ;)

Thanks for the replies! @alexciornii here's further stack trace:

I can't use 3.2.2.BETA however as it pulls in the latest version of some Spring dependencies which breaks a lot of our response layer code, even with them excluded as dependencies:

compile ('com.github.cloudyrock.mongock:mongock-core:3.2.1.BETA') {
    exclude group: 'org.springframework'
  }

  compile ("com.github.cloudyrock.mongock:mongock-spring:3.2.1.BETA") {
    exclude group: 'org.springframework'
  }

Hi @nicholassmith , we'll be looking at this evening. I will come back to you.

Cheers

Got further, the exclude has to be very specific org.springframework.data in my case, however I get snagged on A component required a bean of type 'com.mongodb.DB' that could not be found. instead. I suspect that because we're trying to use a much older version of Spring Boot there's some requirement mismatches.

Sorry @nicholassmith , I wasn't able to have a look yesterday. I will try today, but I cannot commit as we got something urgent. I will keep you posted.

However, it seems, as you say, you are using an older version.
On the bright side, we are refactoring the entire framework in such a way we are going to provide much better support for old versions of frameworks(spring, etc), driver and MongoDB(3.X, 4.X), etc.) But this hasn't been released yet and I don't this will be ready until next month. So, we'll try to fix your current issue and then, my suggestion is to move to the new refactored version(keeping the versions of Spring, etc you are using)

As said, I will keep you posted

Hello @nicholassmith , I don't know if you have worked it around or not. But Just for you to know that com.mongodb.DB is not supported in the new 3.X version( I just realised it now, after reading your message again). You should use MongoDatabase.

Let me know how it goes
