Hello,
This is our environment
- OS: RHEL 5 on VMWare
- Jboss EAP 5.1
- JDK 1.6
By mistake we had a same class(with same package) bundled in two different jars, and both of this jar are present in our Web apps WEB-INF\classes folder
- portal-impl.jar (Had the wrong version of the class)
- ext-web-ext-impl.jar (Had the correct version of the class)
Until now Jboss was loading the correct version of the class from ext-web-ext-impl.jar and our application was working fine.
This week our production servers were moved to VMWare 5 (from VMWare 4) and there was no other change to OS, JDK or Jboss version. Suddenly what happened is that Jboss started to load the wrong class from portal-impl.jar and our application start to throw NoSuchMethod exception as the class in portal-impl.jar is very old.
We can NOT do a deployment in to production to fix this problem, is there any JVM or OS level setting that we can set to get the old behavior back.
I really appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
Muthu
