[secretmanager] Failed to instantiate SecretManagerServiceClient in Java client library

[thagikura]

When I tried to instantiate SecretManagerServiceClient in the java client library, an Exception was thrown in the protobuf layer.
I couldn't instantiate the client because of the error.

Environment details

1. Specify the API at the beginning of the title. For example, "[vision]: ...").
   SecretManager

2. OS type and version:
   macOS Sequoia 15.1.1

3. Java version:
   17

4. Version(s):
   google-cloud-bom: 26.51.0
   (derived version from bom) com.google.cloud:google-cloud-secretmanager:2.54.0
   Kotlin version: 2.1.0

Steps to reproduce

1. Instantiate SecretManagerServiceClient

Code example

import com.google.cloud.secretmanager.v1.SecretManagerServiceClient

val client = SecretManagerServiceClient.create()

Any additional information below

I tried both
import com.google.cloud.secretmanager.v1beta2.SecretManagerServiceClient and
import com.google.cloud.secretmanager.v1.SecretManagerServiceClient

but resulted in the same error.

[suztomo]

Thank you for the report. That "GeneratedMessageLite" having the suffix "Lite" is suspicious to me. Protobuf Lite is for special runtime environments.

Would you share the followings?

• the dependency graph (gradlew dependencies for Maven; mvn dependency:tree)
• A simple project that reproduces the problem

[suztomo]

@thagikura I'll close this issue if there's no activity.

[thagikura]

Sorry for the delayed response.

When I created a minimal project to try to reproduce the issue, I couldn't reproduce that issue in that project.

Here is the minimal project that instantiates the SecretMangerServiceClient. (It requires Application Default Credentials to run, but it succeeds to instantiate the SecretManagerServiceClient)

And here is the result of ./gradlew dependencies in that minimal project.

The instantiation issue still happens in my production repository, but I still couldn't manage to extract it to a minimal reproducible project.

Do you have any ideas from what I'm observing?

[suztomo]

An java.lang.VerifyError has occurred in the past #10698 and it seems related to the operating system. Did you try running it in the same Docker container or VM image?

[thagikura]

Yes, both of them were running on the same Mac PC.
