I have narrowed down the problem to the pom.xml file. My project works but when I add the following dependency I get an error

    
        org.springframework.data
        spring-data-jpa
        1.3.2.RELEASE
    

The error stack is as follow

ERROR DispatcherServlet - Context initialization failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Failed to read candidate component class: file [C:\workspace-sts\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp1\wtpwebapps\Webtest1\WEB-INF\classes\com\springweb\controller\SetHomePageController.class]; nested exception is java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: class org.springframework.core.type.classreading.ClassMetadataReadingVisitor has interface org.springframework.asm.ClassVisitor as super class

I can't understand what is wrong with the dependency, I need spring-data jpa dependency later when I'm going to add a dao that uses extends JpaRepository.

Thanks in advance.

解决方案：

You most likely have conflicting Spring dependencies on your classpath. It's probably an old spring-asm JAR.

Run mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=:spring*:: and check for conflicts. The best way to avoid these is to put a dependency on the spring-framework-bom in your project's dependencyManagement section, as follows

        
            org.springframework
            spring-framework-bom
            4.0.3.RELEASE
            pom
            import
