    Jaxb-impl in Guvnor's WEB-INF/lib

      Hi all,

       

      I've set up a JBoss AS 5.1 installation of Guvnor (5.3.1 GA) using the JBPM 5.2 installer (installed using the provided ANT script).

      After some usage of Guvnor and jbpm-console without apparent issues, jbpm-console becomes unable to communicate with Guvnor.

       

      Snippet of "server.log":

      Now, since jaxb is part of the JRE since version 1.6.0_04, I guess some other webapp triggered bootloader classloading of MarshallerImpl.

      I removed jaxb-impl-2.2.1.1 from the WEB-INF/lib folder of drools-guvnor and now it appears to run without problems.

       

      Wouldn't it be better to remove jaxb-impl from WEB-INF/lib in guvnor distribution wars? Do I miss something?

       

      Thanks in advance, regards.
