JBoss 7.1.1.Final issue with Spring 3.1.1
nnanda May 30, 2012 6:11 PMHi All,
We are using Spring 3.1.1 and JBoss 7.1.1.Final for our web application. My web.xml looks like below:
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5"> <context-param> <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name> <param-value>classpath:spring/applicationContext.xml</param-value> </context-param> <!-- Listeners are loaded in the sequence mentioned in web.xml --> <listener> <description>Spring Application Context listener. This must be loaded first</description> <display-name>Spring Context Config Listener</display-name> <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class> </listener> <listener> <description>JAX-WS Listener. This will initialize Metro web service engine</description> <display-name>JAX-WS Listener</display-name> <listener-class>com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServletContextListener</listener-class> </listener> <servlet> <servlet-name>JAX-WS Servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet> <servlet-name>RESTful Servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>com.sun.ws.rest.config.property.resourceConfigClass</param-name> <param-value>com.demo.util.ws.restful.config.DemoRestfulResourcesConfig</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerRequestFilters</param-name> <param-value>com.demo.util.ws.handler.DemoRestfulRequestHandler</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>3</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>JAX-WS Servlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/ws/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>RESTful Servlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/restful/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app>
This clearly tells to load Spring context listener before Sun-Metro listener. However, JBoss 7 is loading Sun Metro servlet/listener before Spring context listener.
This works perfectly fine in JBoss 5.1.
Am I doing something wrong? Why JBoss 7 is behaving weirdly?
Thanks,
Niranjan
