Error creating bean when I run spring boot application

error:Error creating bean with name 'formContentFilter' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/servlet/WebMvcAutoConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.filter.OrderedFormContentFilter]: Factory method 'formContentFilter' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.BootstrapMethodError: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:

If you are under spring boot, jackson is added by default,

So the version you are adding manualy is probably conflicting with the one spring boot adds,

Try to delete the jackson dependencies from your pom

I'd like to write this to a different answer, since the stacktrace you provided lead me to a completely different path.

I see in your pom.xml that you use jackson-core:2.1.3 and jackson-databind:2.1.3 version, which is more than 7 years old at this point.

However, based in this list, the spring version you use expects the much newer 2.9.8 version. So probably, the method not found exception is because during runtime, spring gets a completely different version of the ObjectMapper class (source code here), which probably doesn't have the required addMixIn() method.

To fix this, since the parent of you pom.xml is set to the spring-boot-starter-parent, you can just delete the tag which sets the version of all of your dependencies starting with jackson and spring.

I quickly went through the original version of you pom.xml and cleaned it up a little, try replacing the content of your pom.xml with this:

Please take a look at this part of your pom.xml:

        <dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>2.1.3.RELEASE</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

This was not meant to be in project.dependencies. It was mean to be in project.dependencyManagement.dependencies.

What is probably happening is that maven includes all the dependencies into your project on compile-time, but doesn't package them with your application.

In the meantime, you use a dependency that is available because of the part I highlighted, but the class is not available during runtime.

Please try to place the part I highlighted like this:

<project>
...
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>2.1.3.RELEASE</version>
<type>import</type>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
...
</project>

Also pay attention to the scope, which changed from provided to import.
