[Solved] JAXBException: Implementation of JAXB-API has not been found on module path or classpath.

1 Comment

JAXBException is the root exception class for all the JAXB exceptions. Generally this exception occurred when the implemented code is not fulfill the pre-requisite for JAXB related dependencies.

Constructors

JAXBException class having following constructors.

  • JAXBException(String msg): Construct exception with detail message..
  • JAXBException(String msg, String errorCode) : This construct exception with detail message with error code.
  • JAXBException(String msg, String errorCode, Throwable exception) : Construct detail message with error code and stacktrace of linked exception stacktrace.
  • JAXBException(String msg, Throwable exception) :Construct exception with detail message and stacktrace of linked exception.
  • JAXBException(Throwable exception) : Construct exception with stacktrace of linked exception.

Problem

This JAXBException occurred in your code because on runtime JAXB is not able to find JAXB-API related dependency.

javax.xml.bind.JAXBException: Implementation of JAXB-API has not been found on module path or classpath.
 - with linked exception:
[java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.xml.internal.bind.v2.ContextFactory]

Solutions

To implement JAXB marshalling and unmarshalling in your application, you need to add following dependencies in you code. As above exception message explained “JAXB-API has not found in module or class path” this exception occurred when you forget to add JAXB-API dependency.

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-core</artifactId>
    <version>2.3.0.1</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.3.1</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
    <version>2.3.1</version>
</dependency>
 
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.javassist</groupId>
    <artifactId>javassist</artifactId>
    <version>3.25.0-GA</version>
</dependency>

[Solved] Maven: No compiler is provided in this environment. Perhaps you are running on a JRE rather than a JDK

Leave a comment

This maven exception occurs  when your Window/Unix environment variable for JAVA_HOME and PATH are pointing to JRE instead of JDK. That’s why maven will not compile code and throw below exception.
