My WEB-INF/lib contains "jackson-core-2.8.10.jar" which contains the necessary class file. In fact I am able to create objects for other classes in the same jar, so it isn't as f the jar itself is invisible somehow. But when running on
Tomcat I am getting a ClassNotFoundException. I am posting the stacktrace below. This error has been giving me nightmares for the past week. Absolutely any sort of hint will be appreciated. Please feel free to call me an idiot.
Relevant information:
Tomcat version: Apache Tomcat/8.5.23
Java version: 1.8.0_151
I am getting the exception in the following line:
Same code, same
test cases running on a windows machine with same Java and Tomcat machine. Unfortunately, don't have access to the pc whole time otherwise I would have developed on it. Even stranger, when I try to place a try catch around the statement to catch the particular error I get:
Error:(61, 11) java: exception com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonProcessingException is never thrown in body of corresponding try statement
Here's the stack trace when I receive the request.
