AutoDiscoveryMethodFactory ClassNotFoundException when executing mockservicerunner

I upgraded to 5.2.1 and still got the same ClassNotFoundException.

 

Some googling makes me believe that the class is from the Pro release?

 

https://www.soapui.org/apidocs/pro/index.html?com/eviware/soapui/plugins/auto/factories/AutoDiscoveryMethodFactory.html

 

Annoying, but not cripling, I too observe that the script does run with all the error messages.

    Do you have any plugins? or soapui logs that you can attach here?

      If the SoapUI version is 5.2.1 (I use this and found the same problem), the problem ties to the default plugins installed under "C:\Users\<user name>.soapuios\plugin".

       

      For SoapUI 5.2.1, there are 4 default plugins installed under this directory:

      1. readyapi-swaggerhub-plugin-1.0.jar
      2. ready-mqtt-plugin-dist.jar
      3. ready-uxm-plugin-1.0.1-dist.jar
      4. soapui-swagger-plugin-2.2-dist.jar

      Just rename the original folder 'plugins' to 'plugins_NOTinUse' (or something else), so that default plugins could be forced hidden during runtime. The problem then disappeared.

        I had several errors like that: 

         


        log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.

        ERROR [SoapUI] An error occurred [com.eviware.soapui.plugins.auto.factories.AutoDiscoveryMethodFactory], see error log for details
        ERROR [SoapUI] An error occurred [com.eviware.soapui.plugins.auto.factories.AutoImportMethodFactory], see error log for details

         

        I did the solution for jrahman and it works now!
