Spring Boot and Spring Data Rest - java.lang.IllegalAccessError

See original GitHub issue

Under WildFly 10.1.0.Final I am getting:

java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class org.springframework.data.rest.webmvc.RepositoryEntityController cannot access its superclass org.springframework.data.rest.webmvc.AbstractRepositoryRestController

This issue started to happen when I added Spring Data Rest configuration with all the necessary dependencies into the project.

I noticed that issue cannot be reproduced when I comment<context:load-time-weaver />tag inside the applicationContext.xml.

This is a sample app that reproduces the problem: https://github.com/emaysyuk/spring-boot-data-rest

I met this issue and resolve it by removing

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-devtools</artifactId>
            <scope>runtime</scope>
        </dependency>
