Failed to define class com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.soap.SOAPDocumentImpl

[paul.robinson]

Hello,

I've started to see this error appearing in AS 7 master. It does not occur in a version I built from master on the 21st October, but it does occur in a version I built from master on the 31st October.

I have a simple jax-ws Web service with a handler chain. The problem only occurs when the handler chain it enabled. When invoking the service I see the following stacktrace:

{code}

11:02:29,643 INFO  [stdout] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-1) MyHandler.getHeaders()

{code}

I have done a search for "com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.dom.DocumentImpl" and it does not appear in any of the jars of either of the two AS7 builds mentioned above. However, it does appear in rt.jar of the JRE (oracle jdk1.6.0_27).

I have tried this with these java versions and get the same problem:

{code}

java version "1.6.0_22"

OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.10.4) (fedora-60.1.10.4.fc15-x86_64)

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)

java version "1.6.0_27"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_27-b07)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.2-b06, mixed mode)

{code}

I've attached a simple example that re-produces this issue. Do the following to try it:

1. Get an up-to-date checkout of AS7, build and start the AS
2. unzip my example
3. mvn install
4. cp target/echo_service.war $JBOSS_HOME/standalone/deployments
5. wait to deploy
6. mvn test
7. observe test failure and the above stacktrace on the server.

I'm assuming something has changed in the past 10 days, to cause this. Does anyone know what it may be?

Thanks a lot,

Paul

With high probability related to

https://github.com/jbossas/jboss-as/pull/524

that should be going upstream soon.

Rio,

Thanks a lot for the quick reply. It does look like that is the cause, I'm "watching" the pull request and I'll re-test when it goes upstream and report back.

Thanks,

Paul.

[asoldano]

I confirm, that's the fix for this issue.

[paul.robinson]

Alessio,

Thanks for the confirmation.

I tried using Jboss 7.1.0.CR1b , which  [AS7-2425] is solved . But i still get the same error .

[paul.robinson]

tee tee,

Have you tried reproducing the problem with the attachment in my original post?

Paul.

[skunjumohamed]

I am getting the same error with JBoss 7.1.0.Final when I invoke a Spring webservice. All the changes mentioned in the solution seems to be there. Any clue how to solve this ?

[asoldano]

Please start a new thread and provide more information on your client, how it is packaged, the module dependencies you set, etc. Thanks
