Error unable to create configuration, because no bean validation provider could be found

It’s been over a decade since I worked on a JEE application, and with all the spring-scanner stuff in Atlassian’s code base, I find myself struggling to resolve things. I have been tasked with fixing code of a departed developer. and I have run into this error when starting up jira from the plugin dir with atlas-run.

Error creating bean with name ‘pluginMethodValidationPostProcessor’ defined in URL …MET-INF/spring/plugin-context.xml. Invocation of inti method failed; nested exception is javax.validation.NoProviderFoundException: Unable to create a Configuration, because no Bean Validation provider could be found. Add a provider like Hibernate Validator to your classpath.

I believe the validator should be in the spring-scanner code/jar, right?

I have this defined in my plugin-context.xml file. I have
com.atlassian.plugin
atlassian-spring-scanner-annotation
3.0.2
provided

and also



com.atlassian.maven.plugins
jira-maven-plugin
${amps.version}
true

${jira.version}

I haven’t really found anything on the web. Can someone help point me in the right direction?

Thank you.
