Problem is that javax.validation:validation-api-1.1.0-Final.jar and jakarta.validation:jakarta.validation-api-2.0.2.jar are both on your classpath, they have classes in the same namespace(javax.validation) and older version of the class, one which doesn’t have methods present in the latest version, is being loaded by the classloader.

You’ll have to exclude javax.validation from your classpath, it’s coming from swagger-models

For bystanders ending up here, this has been fixed in swagger-core v2.1.2 from https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-core/pull/3467 so the exclusion shouldn’t be needed anymore.
