Can't create SparkSession in Spring Boot

I'm trying to run Spark on Spring, the project itself runs without errors, but after I try to create a session, i get this error.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'scala.collection.SeqOps scala.collection.mutable.Buffer$.empty()'

controller

@RestController
public class MainController {
    @GetMapping("/")
    public String index() {
        SparkSession spark = SparkSession
                .builder()
                .appName("AppSpark")
                .config("spark.master", "local")
                .getOrCreate();

        return "Hello World!";
    }
}

I tried to downgrade the versions in the pom file, but it did not help, only the error type changed.

If anyone has come across the same error, I would appreciate any help.

Scala libraries are compiled against a Scala version which is visible in the artifact name like spark-sql_2.13 means it's spark-sql compiled for Scala 2.13.

You cannot have multiple Scala versions in the same project.

In your case, you have:

• scala-library: 2.12
• spark-core: 2.12
• spark.sql: 2.13

Choose a single version and stick to it. 2.13 if possible as it's more recent.
