Question

I am using Spring 4.2.5 version and all tile of 3.0.5 version. maven build also successful. But while starting of application I am getting error as java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tiles/TilesApplicationContext.

I try to search this class "TilesApplicationContext" in my project and found its used in spring-webmvc -4.2.5.jar and TilesApplicationContext is there till tiles-api-2.2.2 version and I am using tiles-api-3.0.5

Could any one help me on this issue. Following is my maven configuration:

Answer 1

I found the solution after debugging the core jars, as I have added tiles of version 3.0.5 jars and in "web-application-config.xml" file "org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles3.TilesConfigurer" was used as "org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesConfigurer". After modifing this its working seamlessly.
