Hi,

I am trying Hazelcast 3.6-EA (Currently using 3.5.3). When running I get an AbstractMethodError:

java.lang.AbstractMethodError: javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory.setFeature(Ljava/lang/String;Z)V

at com.hazelcast.config.XmlConfigBuilder.parse(XmlConfigBuilder.java:226)

at com.hazelcast.config.XmlConfigBuilder.parseAndBuildConfig(XmlConfigBuilder.java:210)

at com.hazelcast.config.XmlConfigBuilder.build(XmlConfigBuilder.java:201)

at com.hazelcast.config.ClasspathXmlConfig.<init>(ClasspathXmlConfig.java:100)

at com.hazelcast.config.ClasspathXmlConfig.<init>(ClasspathXmlConfig.java:57)

at com.hazelcast.config.ClasspathXmlConfig.<init>(ClasspathXmlConfig.java:44)

Any idea why this might be? I am running on Java 8.

regards,

Wim

Hi Wim,

this seems like a very old version of Xerces is on your classpath. Are you running your application inside Java EE or Spring container? Can you check if XercesImpl.jar is on your classpath?

Cheers,

Jaromir

I do have Xerces in my classpath indeed. I will further look down that path and see if I can upgrade to a later version.

regards,

Wim

For anybody that has the same issue: Removing Xerces indeed solved the issue.

Hi Wim,

What was the your xerces version?

Also if possible can you post logs when you add -Djaxp.debug=1 and xerces in classpath?

Thanks Wim.

I had the exact same issue. Resolved after getting rid of xerces-impl jar
