I'm using Spring Boot 3.4.5 with springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui:2.3.0 to integrate Swagger UI in my Spring Boot REST application. This is my security configuration:

@Bean
    SecurityFilterChain filterChain(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        http.cors(Customizer.withDefaults()).csrf(AbstractHttpConfigurer::disable)
                .exceptionHandling((exceptionHandling) -> exceptionHandling.authenticationEntryPoint(authenticationEntryPoint))
                .sessionManagement((sm) -> sm.sessionCreationPolicy(SessionCreationPolicy.STATELESS))
                .authorizeHttpRequests(
                        (authRequest) ->
                                authRequest.requestMatchers("/").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers("/api-docs",
                                                "/configuration/ui",
                                                "/api-docs/**",
                                                "/v3/api-docs/**",
                                                "/swagger-resources/**",
                                                "/configuration/security",
                                                "/swagger-ui/**",
                                                "/swagger-ui.html",
                                                "/webjars/**").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers("/account/register").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers("/account/login").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers("/account/verify").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers(HttpMethod.GET, "/imgs/**").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers("/account/forget-password").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers("/account/forget-password/verify").permitAll()
                                        .requestMatchers("/account/reset-password").permitAll()
                                        .anyRequest().authenticated())
                .authenticationProvider(authenticationProvider());
        http.addFilterBefore(authenticationFilter, UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter.class);
        return http.build();
    }

This is my minimal configuration for swagger.

@Configuration
public class SwaggerConfig {
    @Bean
    public OpenAPI customOpenAPI() {
        return new OpenAPI()
                .info(new Info()
                        .title("Customer Feedback SaaS API")
                        .version("1.0")
                        .contact(new Contact()
                                .name("Ajoy Deb Nath")
                                .email("[email protected]")));
    }
}

When I hit the endpoint http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui/index.html in the browser, It shows:

In the console, I get this error:

I tried to clean and rebuilt the project, but nothing changed. Then I looked into my GlobalExceptionHandler. Is this could be a problem as @ControllerAdvice is only used here in the code? Am I doing anything wrong here?

@ControllerAdvice
public class GlobalExceptionHandler {
    @ExceptionHandler(exception = UsernameNotFoundException.class)
    public ResponseEntity<?> handleUsernameNotFoundException(UsernameNotFoundException ex, WebRequest request){
        return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND).body(new MessageResponse("User not found"));
    }
    
    @ExceptionHandler(exception = BadCredentialsException.class)
    public ResponseEntity<?> handleBadCredentialsException(BadCredentialsException ex, WebRequest request){
        return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND).body(new MessageResponse("Email/Password credential not matched"));
    }
}

Seems like the issue you're encountering is not caused by @ControllerAdvice or your custom exception handling. The actual root cause seems to be a version incompatibility between springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui:2.3.0 and Spring Boot 3.4.5.

Try to upgrade springdoc-openapi to a compatible version:

So update your springdoc-openapi version from 2.3.0 to 2.3.1 or later, which is compatible with Spring Boot 3.2+ and therefore also with 3.4.5.

Changes in build.gradle:

implementation("org.springdoc:springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui:2.3.1")

Changes in pom.xml:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springdoc</groupId>
  <artifactId>springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui</artifactId>
  <version>2.3.1</version>
</dependency>

2.3.1 explicitly fixes compatibility issues with Spring Framework 6.1+.

Downgrading Spring Boot would also be an option, however updating makes way more sense.

Upgrading the springdoc-openapi worked for me. Thanks.
@CodeSage Glad it worked. Happy I could help!
For anyone who wish to understand the compatible versions, kindly refer springdoc.org/….
Also, please make sure to clear the IDE cache before running mvn clean install. Otherwise, the issue persists even after updating the right versions.

  1. Here the ControllerAdviceBean refers to the internal thing in the spring-web not the one in you code.

  2. This happens when your application is using Spring Boot 3.x (which depends on Spring Framework 6), but at runtime it loads an old version of spring-web, typically Spring 5.x.

  3. The ControllerAdviceBean(Object) constructor exists only in Spring Web 6+. If an older version is loaded, the method is missing, and you get the NoSuchMethodError.

  4. Since the error occurs even you are using Spring Boot 3.4.5 means there is some other dependency in your pom.xml / buil.gradle that's been adding the old spring-web to the classpath.

  5. First look for duplicate springweb either jar files in classpath or using the command

    ./mvnw dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.springframework

  6. Look for any unexpected or duplicate versions like:

    org.springframework:spring-web:5.x.x <-- BAD

    org.springframework:spring-web:6.2.6 <-- GOOD

    If you find 5.x.x, find which dependency brought it in:

  7. You can do this by checking the dependency tree in IDE and exclude the spring-web from it by adding the <exclusion> tag.

    <dependency>
  <groupId>conflicting.group</groupId>
  <artifactId>conflicting-lib</artifactId>
  <exclusions>
    <exclusion>
      <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
  </exclusions>
</dependency>

Hope this solves your issue this is my first answer in Stackoverflow I don't know the standard practices here so please do excuse me if anything seems wrong.

I didn't find any 5.x.x version in dependency tree. Upgrading the springdoc-openapi solved the issue.
