In my case  spring threw this because i forgot to make an inner class static    When you found that it doesnt help even adding a no-arg constructor  please check your modifier

If your environment is using both Guice and Spring and using the constructor  Inject  for example  with Play Framework  you will also run into this issue if you have mistakenly auto-completed the import with an incorrect choice of   import com google inject Inject    Then you get the same missing default constructor error even though the rest of your source with  Inject looks exactly the same way as other working components in your project and compile without an error   Correct that with   import javax inject Inject    Do not write a default constructor with construction time injection

You must have  to define no-args or default constructor if you are creating your own constructor  You can read why default or no argument constructor is required  why-default-or-no-argument-constructor-java-class html

Spring cannot instantiate your TestController because its only constructor requires a parameter  You can add a no-arg constructor or you add  Autowired annotation to the constructor    Autowired public TestController KeeperClient testClient        TestController testClient   testClient      In this case  you are explicitly telling Spring to search the application context for a KeeperClient bean and inject it  when instantiating the TestControlller
