Algolia Java API throwing mysterious exception

Stack trace follows:

Perhaps you have an unintended dependency on a specific Guava version?

Could be that I’m doing something wrong. This exception started happening on our production server, but I can’t reproduce it in our dev environment.

Hi @steve1,

Indeed it seems a dependency issue.
Could you give me your dependency tree?

@rcs

I am also experiencing the same issue when calling below function

TimeoutableHostNameResolver(long timeout) { this.timeout = timeout; this.timeLimiter = SimpleTimeLimiter.create(Executors.newCachedThreadPool()); }

I have tried using both guava-22.0.jar and guava-23.0.jar and still getting the same exception. Please help.

Here you go. Thank you for prompt response.

it is a bit strange because I do NOT get this error while running from a java main program or a spring boot application. In both cases builder function is invoked from a static method.

But when I run it in a cron job in Hybris e-commerce I face this issue.

I’ve released the version 2.16.2 with updated dependencies (and removal of others). Could you try to see if you still have this issue?

Thanks

I’m receiving this same error.
I’ve only included algolia dependency in pom.xml as directed in API reference.

I’m trying to learn and stuck on step 1 only.
Could you please help ?

Thanks @rcs. I haven’t tried the new version of jar yet.
Since it was an urgent delivery, I had to call the non-public constructor of API client via java Reflection to move forward.

Will use your new jar before moving to production.

It was a guava dependency collision for me. Datomic uses 18 and Algolia uses 24. I forced 24 and everything worked.
