ClassNotFoundException: org.elasticsearch.plugins.ActionPlugin

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I'm trying to create spring boot application with elasticsearch (without spring data).
I've added following Maven dependency:

org.elasticsearch.client transport 5.0.0 
    </dependency>

Trying to execute the following code:

TransportClient client = new PreBuiltTransportClient(Settings.EMPTY)
.addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName("http://localhost"), 9300));

and getting an exception:

Solution which given is not working for me

I think you are mixing versions in your classpath.

Run mvn dependency:tree to check that.

Hi.

Tried your solution also. That is also not resolved the issue, getting the same issue only.

What does it give?

May be share a sample minimalist pom.xml and a java main class would help to reproduce your issue?
