Spring 2.5 + quartz java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/quartz/JobDetail


I have an issue with quartz library. I'm using it with spring 2.5:




<bean id="reminderBean" class="com.mail.timexis.ReminderBean">
<property name="mailSender">
<ref local="timexisMailSender" />
</property>
</bean>

<bean id="jobDetail"
class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.MethodInvokingJobDetailFactoryBean">
<property name="targetObject" ref="reminderBean" />
<property name="targetMethod" value="execute" />
</bean>

<bean id="cronTrigger" class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.CronTriggerBean">
<property name="jobDetail" ref="jobDetail" />
<!-- run every morning at 6 AM -->
<property name="cronExpression" value="* * * * * ?" />
</bean>

<bean class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.SchedulerFactoryBean">
<property name="triggers">
<list>
<ref bean="cronTrigger" />
</list>
</property>
</bean>



Maven:




<dependency>
<groupId>org.quartz-scheduler</groupId>
<artifactId>quartz</artifactId>
<version>1.8.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-collections</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-collections</artifactId>
<version>3.2</version>
</dependency>



And when i run tomcat it cannot instantiate "jobDetail" bean because it can't see JobDetail class used by MethodInvokingJobDetailFactoryBean class ( Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/quartz/JobDetail)



Maven downloads the jars and i can see it under MavenDependencies and I can find the JobDetail class.



I think it's something with the compatibility of spring 2.5 and quartz. Any ideas?

  1. Did you add the dependency to spring-context-support ?

    It contains the org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.MethodInvokingJobDetailFactoryBean which seems to be missing according to the stacktrace.

  2. You need to add external jar file for class org.quartz.JobDetail

    Get it from here
