App can't start

[vahidshirvani]

Describe the bug

Our app on Spring-boot version 3.4.1 can't start with your latest dependency (version 4.4.0)

To Reproduce

This is the console output

***************************
APPLICATION FAILED TO START
***************************

Description:

An attempt was made to call a method that does not exist. The attempt was made from the following location:

    org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.embedded.TomcatWebServerFactoryCustomizer.customizeMaxQueueCapacity(TomcatWebServerFactoryCustomizer.java:168)

The following method did not exist:

    'void org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol.setMaxQueueSize(int)'

The calling method's class, org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.embedded.TomcatWebServerFactoryCustomizer, was loaded from the following location:

    jar:nested:/app.jar/!BOOT-INF/lib/spring-boot-autoconfigure-3.4.1.jar!/org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/embedded/TomcatWebServerFactoryCustomizer.class

The called method's class, org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol, is available from the following locations:

    jar:nested:/app.jar/!BOOT-INF/lib/tomcat-coyote-10.0.27.jar!/org/apache/coyote/AbstractProtocol.class
    jar:nested:/app.jar/!BOOT-INF/lib/tomcat-embed-core-10.1.34.jar!/org/apache/coyote/AbstractProtocol.class

The called method's class hierarchy was loaded from the following locations:

    org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol: jar:nested:/app.jar/!BOOT-INF/lib/tomcat-coyote-10.0.27.jar!/

Expected behavior

It should not crash on startup

Environment

• Version of this library used: 4.4.0
• Version of Java used: 21
• Version of Spring Boot used: 3.4.1
• Web server used (Tomcat, Jetty, Undertow or Netty): Tomcat
• Web application type used (Servlet Stack or Reactive Stack): Servlet

Solution

I did some research and found the root cause. The issue was in logback-access and it was resolved in version 2.0.5. Here is the discussion qos-ch/logback-access#17 (comment)

So basically you need to bump the version of the logback-access from 2.0.4 to at least 2.0.5 and release logback-access-spring-boot-starter version 4.4.1

Do you have any ETA for this patch? I have temporarily manually included logback-access 2.0.5 in my pom.xml in my project to be able to move further and not be stuck.

I ran into this. I had to exclude a few dependencies from logback-access-spring-boot-starter

<dependency>
            <groupId>dev.akkinoc.spring.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>logback-access-spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.apache.tomcat</groupId>
                    <artifactId>tomcat-catalina</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.apache.tomcat</groupId>
                    <artifactId>tomcat-coyote</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>

Updated Logback-access in v4.4.1.
Could you please try v4.4.1 or later?
