Hot Deploy Fails on Re-Deploy

[dgantenbein]

Hi -

I am using JBoss 3.0.1. My ear contains a sar file. When I deploy this ear for the first time, everything works great. I can hot deploy the ear or have the ear deployed before starting JBoss. However all re-deploys of the ear fail with a class loader error....

Any suggestions? Could this be a bug?

Thanks...

It looks like a bug, but I'd try the just released 3.0.2 before getting too worried.

[dgantenbein]

Thanks. I tried 3.0.2 and get the same problem. I will post a bug.

This problem also exists during EAR re deployment.This caused some heartburn since I was looking for the problem in the code. The most common symptom was ClassCastException i.e
16:45:26,578 INFO [EnvFileUploadServlet] Uploaded file :fileupload12113tmp
16:45:26,638 INFO [EnvFileUploadServlet] Object:session/EnvConfigurationServiceHome
16:45:26,658 ERROR [EnvFileUploadServlet] com.ids.servlet.util.fileupload.EnvFileUploadServlet@499616
java.lang.ClassCastException

at javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(PortableRemoteObject.java:134)

After hot deploy it seems the Tomcat/Web Server side references to old proxies dont get refreshed.

I always undeploy an app first, wait for the server logs to show that it's been undeployed, then deploy the new one. This ensures that whatever caching has been done by the server has been flushed. True on JBoss, true on WebLogic (had the same problems there).

Hi,

How do you create your initial context? Try it without setting the propertyies PROVIDER_URL and INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY
This worked for me.
