java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/jetty/server/nio/SelectChannelConnector using com.j256.simplejmx.web.JmxWebServer

Question

I am trying to implement simple JMX Client/Server using com.j256.simplejmx. I want to spy my objects using Web Browser. I copied a really simple piece of code:

package com.my.package.jmx;

import com.j256.simplejmx.web.JmxWebServer;

public class JMXServer {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception  {

        JmxWebServer jmxWebServer = new JmxWebServer(8123);
        jmxWebServer.start();
    }

}

When I run it I have got an exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/jetty/util/thread/ThreadPool
    at com.my.package.jmx.JMXServer.main(JMXServer.java:9)

    at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
    ... 1 more

I added this to my pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>jetty-util</artifactId>
    <version>9.1.3.v20140225</version>
</dependency>

I run it once again and I have got an another excpetion:

Ex

    at com.my.package.jmx.JMXServer.main(JMXServer.java:9)

So once again, I update my pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>jetty-server</artifactId>
    <version>9.1.3.v20140225</version>
</dependency>

And it gives me an error once again:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/jetty/server/nio/SelectChannelConnector
    at com.mu.package.jmx.JMXServer.main(JMXServer.java:9)

    at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
    ... 1 more

and I cannot find any solution for that. What else I should add to my pom.xml file? Maybe it is an issue with versions of dependencies?

Thank you in advance.

I edited my pom.xml

<project...> 

    <properties>
        <jetty-version>8.1.9.v20130131</jetty-version>
    </properties>

    <dependencies>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.j256.simplejmx</groupId>
            <artifactId>simplejmx</artifactId>
            <version>1.8</version>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId>
            <artifactId>jetty-util</artifactId>
            <version>${jetty-version}</version>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId>
            <artifactId>jetty-server</artifactId>
            <version>${jetty-version}</version>
            <optional>true</optional>
        </dependency>

    </dependencies>

</project>

Now, I can run this server:

INFO  Server - jetty-8.1.9.v20130131
INFO  AbstractConnector - Started SelectChannelConnector@0.0.0.0:8123

but when I go to my Web Browser and I put:

localhost:8123

it thows an exception:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector

So right now SimpleJMX has an optional dependency for 8.1.9.v20130131 Jetty to support publishing JMX over web/HTTP. If you check out the pom.xml you'll see:

<jetty-version>8.1.9.v20130131</jetty-version>
...
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>jetty-server</artifactId>
    <version>${jetty-version}</version>
    <optional>true</optional>
</dependency>

Can you try this version of Jetty? I'm not sure there is a way for me to support both 8.X.X and 9.X.X but I'll look into it.
