Solution

Quartz 2 APIs are changed a lot, and someone already filled a bug report on Spring JIRA. At this moment, “Spring 3 is NOT COMPATIBLE with Quartz 2“.

Here are 3 alternatives :

  1. Use Quartz 1.8.5, Spring 3 is integrated great with Quartz 1.x, classic and stable also.
  2. Do not use Spring’s QuartzJobBean for integration, uses Quartz’s interface / class directly.
  3. Last, what else? Please wait for the bug fixed.

If You are using Spring 3.x & Quartz 2.1.x…

Then do only two changes.
1st : for Simple Trigger

Use class=”org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.SimpleTriggerFactoryBean”> instead of
class=”org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.SimpleTriggerBean”>

2nd : for Cron Trigger
use class=”org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.CronTriggerFactoryBean” instead of
class=”org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.CronTriggerBean”

If any one Still getting error like

Caused by: java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: class org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.JobDetailBean has interface org.quartz.JobDetail as super class

then I can send complete source package which works with Spring 3.x & Quartz 2.1.7. Contact me [email protected]/[email protected]……

Regards,
Vijay

Perfect Solution if you using Spring 3.x & Quartz 2.1.7, jdk 1.7

1 step : Add following dependency in pom.xml

org.springframework
spring-tx
3.1.2.RELEASE

org.springframework
spring-context-support
3.1.2.RELEASE

org.springframework
spring-core
3.1.2.RELEASE

org.quartz-scheduler
quartz
2.1.7

2 Step : Full Configuration file :Spring-Quartz.xml

<!– Spring Quartz

–>

|RunMeJob.java|
package TestQuartz;

import org.quartz.JobExecutionContext;
import org.quartz.JobExecutionException;
import org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.QuartzJobBean;

public class RunMeJob extends QuartzJobBean {
private RunMeTask runMeTask;

public void setRunMeTask(RunMeTask runMeTask) {
this.runMeTask = runMeTask;
}

protected void executeInternal(JobExecutionContext context)
throws JobExecutionException {

runMeTask.printMe();

}
}

|RunMeTask.java|
package TestQuartz;

public class RunMeTask {
public void printMe() {
System.out.println(“Spring 3 + Quartz 2.1.7”);
}
}

|Start.java|
package TestQuartz;

import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;

public class Start {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(“Spring-Quartz.xml”);

}
}

Hi,

I am able to configure Quartz 2.1.6 successfully with Spring 3.1. To resolve above issue use JobDetailFactoryBean instead of JobDetailBean and use SimpleTriggerFactoryBean instead of SimpleTriggerBean.
