Can anyone explain me what does the below error means? And how can I fix it?

The package dependency org.codehaus.jettison.json with the version greater than or equal to 1.3.0 required by bundle com.hosyt.astyanax.astyanax_1.0.13 cannot be resolved.

I am working with Maven and using Astyanax client with Cassandra.

Below is my pom.xml file

It means com.hosyt.astyanax.astyanax_1.0.13 depends on org.codehaus.jettison:jettison version 1.3.0 or greater but it's not found.Your pom includes version 1.3 but Maven determines 1.3 is older than 1.3.0. Try changing it into

<dependency> <groupId>org.codehaus.jettison</groupId> <artifactId>jettison</artifactId> <version>1.3.1</version>
</dependency>

(Assuming your project is compatible with 1.3.1)

Just a guess (since I cannot check this because of the non-public artifacts): Move the jettison dependency before the astyanax dependency - because it seems to work for the cassandra-all dependency which you also exclude. To me it looks like Maven tries to resolve the transitive astyanax dependencies before knowing the later declaration.

gradle dependency for Android

implementation ('com.thoughtworks.xstream:xstream:1.4.9') { exclude group: 'xmlpull', module: 'xmlpull'
}
implementation 'com.github.codehaus:jettison:jettison-1.3.7'
