Spring 5 with Spring-social reports java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.web.util.WebUtils.extractFullFilenameFromUrlPath

Question

I have tested Spring 5.0.0.RELEASE to 5.3.4 and all failed with the latest spring social with Facebook login and all reported this error

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.web.util.WebUtils.extractFullFilenameFromUrlPath(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;

I looked at all JARs & it seems that the static method of WebUtils.extractFullFilenameFromUrlPath doesn't exists in 5.x.x. BTW. I tried this solution and it failed too; Spring still attempts to invoke the method

On the other hand, Spring 4.x.x worked like a charm

It should be noted that I am not using Spring Boot Plz help

Try using latest spring-webflow version.

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.webflow/spring-webflow -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.webflow</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-webflow</artifactId>
    <version>2.5.1.RELEASE</version>
