I got this error today:
“java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:org.apache.poi.util.POILogger.log(I[Ljava/lang/Object;)V]”
It looks different from your error, but quite similar. FYI, I’m using maven to manage jars. After some experiment, I found out the root case is the poi.jar and poi-ooxml.jar’s version are not consistent.
This configuration will get an error:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi</artifactId>
<version>3.12</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi-ooxml</artifactId>
<version>3.13</version>
</dependency>
I changed the version of poi.jar from 3.12 to 3.13
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi</artifactId>
<version>3.13</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi-ooxml</artifactId>
<version>3.13</version>
</dependency>
bingo, problem solved. I hope this will help someone who ran into this kind of Exception.
