ClassNotFoundException JBossAS5 Web deployer

[alvo]

Hi, i have a Cleassloading problem, originally postet under "JBoss Web Server":
http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=150683.

Excerpt of logfile:

It seems that the class is loaded before, but there is thrown a ClassNotFoundException by the BaseClassLoader. The war is deployable under JBossAS4 (4.2.2).

Any Ideas? Help appreciated!

Looks like a bug. The org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.injection.WebResourceHandler uses this:

private static void loadXmlResourceEnvRefs(InjectionContainer container, Collection<ResourceEnvironmentReferenceMetaData> refs)
 {
...
 if(resTypeName != null)
 {
 Class<?> resType = Class.forName(resTypeName);

The right thing would be to use the container's classloader to load the resource type (since the resource type can be application specific) :

Class<?> resType = Class.forName(resTypeName,false,container.getClassloader());

Thank you, jaikiran.

I assume that this bug will be fixed and available at some time. Is there a issuetracker ID? ( https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-3393 sounds similar, but apparently its different)

Cheers

Fixed in the upcoming 5.0.1 GA https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6403
