I have defined a trivial SpringBoot Hibernate app, copy-pasted from sample code found in a random site on the Internet. The hopefully relevant portions of my spring.xml look like this:

<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
... details ommitted ...

<bean id="sessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
... details ommitted ...

<bean id="transactionManager"
    class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.HibernateTransactionManager">
    <property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
</bean>

<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager" />

Why do I get this error?

The bean 'org.springframework.transaction.config.internalTransactionAdvisor', defined in class path resource [org/springframework/transaction/annotation/ProxyTransactionManagementConfiguration.class], could not be registered. A bean with that name has already been defined in null and overriding is disabled.

Other things I have already tried

  • Using org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager - same error
  • Using org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager - same error
  • Removing the transactionManager bean - ok my SpringBoot app works but now all my JUnit tests break

  • Maybe check this answer, I was getting the same error after upgrading to Spring Boot 2.x from 1.5.xx : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51367566/trouble-when-changing-spring-boot-version-from-2-0-3-release-to-2-1-0-build-snap – lincolnadym Jul 16 '19 at 16:27
