I am trying to introduce 'spring-data-jpa-datatables' to my project as a maven dependency, but getting several other errors while starting the server

Question

Not sure why I am getting java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.validation.Configuration.getDefaultParameterNameProvider

I added below dependencies to my pom.xml

   <dependency>
        <groupId>com.github.darrachequesne</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-data-jpa-datatables</artifactId>
        <version>5.0.0</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
        <version>6.0.10.Final</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>javax.validation</groupId>
        <artifactId>validation-api</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.1.Final</version>
    </dependency>

Created a repository

  @Repository("fedGLRepository")
  public interface FedGLRepository extends 
  DataTablesRepository<FedGLVariance, Long> {

  }

but after i build and deploy, I get the below Exceptions

This kind of exception is a sure sign you are having incompatible versions of libraries on your classpath.

Run mvn dependency:tree -Dverbose to see how Maven chose between conflicting versions of dependencies. See also the "Resolving conflicts using the dependency tree"
