JBoss 7.1 Beta1 no longer has the system module

[pstackle]

When running on JBoss 7.1 Beta1, I receive a ClassNotFoundException for sun.security.x509.X509CertImpl. In JBoss 7.0.2, I was able to fix this issue by adding the following XML snippet to my jboss-deployment-structure.xml file for my EAR:

<module name="system">
  <imports>
    <include-set>
      <path name="sun/security/x509" />
    </include-set>
  </imports>
</module>

In JBoss 7.1 Beta1, it appears that the system module has been removed and has been "somewhat" replaced by the sun.jdk module. Unfortunately, I can no longer successfully deploy and use the sun.security.x509.X509CertImpl class. I have tried depending on the following XML module snippets in my jboss-deployment-structure.xml file with no success:

The first two resulted in no errors logged, but I still get the ClassNotFoundException.

<module name="deployment.sun.jdk">
  <dependencies>
    <module name="sun.jdk">
      <imports>
        <include-set>
          <path name="sun/security/x509"/>
        </include-set>
      </imports>
    </module>
  </dependencies>
</module>

<module name="deployment.sun.jdk">
  <dependencies>
    <module name="sun.jdk">
      <imports>
        <include path="sun/security/x509"/>
      </imports>
    </module>
  </dependencies>
</module>

This one resulted in a parse error because it doesn't like the <system> tag.

<module name="deployment.sun.jdk">
  <dependencies>
    <system export="true">
      <paths>
        <path name="sun/security/x509"/>
      </paths>
    </system>
  </dependencies>
</module>

I've tried looking through the JBoss Modules documentation for how to add dependencies to the system module, but all I found were the following two pages that are blank:

https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/MODULES/The+system+module

https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/MODULES/Handling+the+system+module

Does anyone have any suggestions for what else I could try or that can point out what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you.

Please have a look at http://community.jboss.org/message/638330#638330

Kind regards,

Is there a way to define the dependency without modifying the container's sun.jdk module?

[gonne]

Yes, the you find the solution in https://community.jboss.org/message/717927#717927

Hi Gonne,

I have been getting this error

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: sun.security.x509.X509CertImpl

As suggested I added jboss-deployment-structure.xml in my ear/META-INF/

Following is content of my jboss-deployment-structure.xml

<jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.1">

    <deployment>

        <dependencies>

            <system>

                <paths>

                    <path name="sun/security/x509"/>

                </paths>

            </system>

        </dependencies>

    </deployment>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

But that didnt resolve the problem, though adding following line in existing sun\jdk module.xml worked

<path name="sun/security/x509"/>

I had to do something like the following to get it to work for me with an EAR that contains a application.war and a application.jar.

{code:xml}
<jboss-deployment-structure>
  <deployment>
    <dependencies>
      <system>
        <paths>
          <path name="sun/security/x509"/>
        </paths>
      </system>
    </dependencies>
  </deployment>
  <sub-deployment name="application.war">
    <dependencies>
      <system>
        <paths>
          <path name="sun/security/x509"/>
        </paths>
      </system>
    </dependencies>
  </sub-deployment>
  <sub-deployment name="application.jar">
    <dependencies>
      <system>
        <paths>
          <path name="sun/security/x509"/>
        </paths>
      </system>
    </dependencies>
  </sub-deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>
