java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.FilterProvider when flink boot up

I'm running Flink 1.11 on k8s cluster and getting the following error when trying to update the log4j-console.properties file:

Im using "flink:1.11.1-scala_2.11-java11" docker image and validated that all log4j2 dependencies are in the classpath.

I have also tried to create a new docker image from the above base image and add to it the missing dependency and yet nothing happened.

I too suffered from this bug. The issue here is that when the task manager and job managers start they are running with a modified classpath, not the JAR that you've built via your build system.

See the constructFlinkClassPath in the flink source code. To prove this out, revert the JSON logging pattering and check out the classpath in the tm/jm logs on startup. You'll notice that your JAR isn't on the classpath.

To fix this issue you need to provide the dependencies (in this case you'll need jackson-core jackson-annotations and jackson-databind) to the lib folder within the tm/jm nodes (the lib folder is included by default in the flink classpath).

If you are using docker, you can do this when you build the container (RUN wget...).
