I googled for com/google/inject/internal/util/$Preconditions, and came to know that it is part of guice-3.0.jar. But guice-3.0.jar is already there in my project. How to debug then? any help..???

Answer 1

Problem is solved now. It was a mistake between guice 3.0 and guice-3.0.0, because both are having the same maven artifact-id but group-id was different.

Answer 2

I suggest printing out what's on your classpath from within your app (see this answer). That way you'll know exactly what classpath your app is using, if there's anything missing or any collisions.

Answer 3

Open the property of your project and add a dependency library.
