NoClassDefFoundError: FilterRegistrationBean

[FdezI]

I'm experimenting a weird issue with (Grails version is: 3.3.2):

    compile 'org.grails.plugins:spring-security-core:3.2.0'
    compile('org.grails.plugins:spring-security-shiro:3.0.1') {
        exclude group: 'org.grails.plugins', module:'spring-security-core'
    }

The trace is:

:bootRun

If I follow the trace and go to: SpringSecurityCoreGrailsPlugin.groovy:204, I find that the class being imported is:

import org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.FilterRegistrationBean

However, somehow, the runtime expects the non-existent:

org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.FilterRegistrationBean

@FdezI can you please verify the problem using Grails v3.3.2 and spring-security-core plugin version to 3.2.1.BUILD-SNAPSHOT. Also, it would be great if you could share the sample application replicating the problem.

[sdelamo]

which Grails version are you using?

[sdelamo]

I think the issue maybe the shiro plugin which is not updated to 3.3.

We experienced this issue in Spring Security Core:
#488

[FdezI]

I'm using Grails 3.3.2 (as stated in the OP). However, I think we can close this issue, I'm not using shiro any more.

This problem has been fixed in Grails Spring Security Shiro v3.1.1
