java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: gherkin/IGherkinDialectProvider

[lgoldstein]

This is a reopen of issue #32. Still occurs with Cucumber 4.1.1 and Gherkin 6.0.14 - despite having cleaned and m2 repository and re-fetching the relevant artifacts (as originally suggested in the issue)

This is happening to me as well. Here are the dependencies I am using:

dependencies {
    compile 'io.cucumber:gherkin:6.0.14'
    compile 'io.cucumber:cucumber-core:4.2.0'
    compile 'io.cucumber:cucumber-java:4.2.0'
    compile 'io.cucumber:cucumber-junit:4.2.0'

    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}

tests.CucumberJvmTest > initializationError FAILED
    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: gherkin/IGherkinDialectProvider

        Caused by:
        java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: gherkin.IGherkinDialectProvider

When I downgrade the gherkin dependency to the following, then everything compiles: compile 'io.cucumber:gherkin:5.1.0'

From version 6.0.0, then I get the error above.

I am facing the same problem. I downgraded to Gherkin 5.1.0 . It did not work for me.

My Cucumber java version is 4.2

Try this project our, it works for me. It is in gradle though. You can take out the allure dependencies if you don't use it.

Still occurs even with version 4.2.2

To avoid problems with versions mess there is a compatibility matrix - https://github.com/reportportal/agent-java-cucumber#compatibility-matrix-for-cucumber-agents

This table might help you to choose the right versions of all сucumber libs.

@filland I have used dependencies as per matrix you have provided but it is not working for me and I am getting same error.

@Imspaliwal what version of cucumber java do you want to use ?
