NoClassDefFoundError for class in jre/lib/ext jar
Hello,
I have already tried to get some help for the kind of problem I encounter in the thread https://community.jboss.org/message/809443#809443 (Problem with JBoss JACC Integration Service and jre/lib/ext jars). However, in that thread I specified that I am using the version 7.1.1.Final and the suggestion I have received was to try a 7.2.0 version. Perhaps the suggestion was triggered by my initial message.
In this thread, I will try to be clearer and to provide additional information regarding the structure of the application and the runtime error since I am able to reproduce the same error in the jboss-eap- 6.1 version and I come to the conclussion that JACC Integration Service is not involved in my problem.
The application I try to migrate to JBoss 7 (coswin8i.war) contains several jars among them the following two contain code relevant for my problem.
- CommonLogin.jar contains the following interface:
package com.siveco.login;
public interface PolicyProviderAdapter
{
public Object create( PolicyDescriptor descriptor );
}
- JSFLogin.jar contains the following class (its code has been stripped since only the line 39 that is clearly marked is important)
package com.siveco.jsf.login;
import java.security.Policy;
import net.jini.security.policy.DynamicPolicy;
import com.siveco.login.PolicyDescriptor;
import com.siveco.login.PolicyProviderAdapter;
public class DynamicPolicyProviderAdapter implements PolicyProviderAdapter
{
private String realmName;
public DynamicPolicyProviderAdapter( String realmName )
{
this.realmName = realmName;
}
public Object create( PolicyDescriptor descriptor )
{
Policy policy = Policy.getPolicy();
if( policy instanceof DynamicPolicy && ( (DynamicPolicy)policy ).grantSupported() ) /* line 39 */
{
/* some code here */
}
else
throw new RuntimeException( "Can't start the JAAS module: Invalid policy: " +
( ( policy == null ) ? null : policy.getClass().toString() ) +
" expecting net.jini.security.policy.DynamicPolicy" );
return null;
}
}
DynamicPolicy is a class in the jsk-policy.jar that is located in the jdk’s jre/lib/ext folder.
In the previous versions of JBoss (4.2.2, 5.1.0 and 6.1.0) I was able to pass a property to JVM in the JBoss command line:
-Djava.security.properties=%JBOSS_CONFIG_DIR%/jini.sec.properties
The purpose of the file jini.sec.properties is to specify the class that has to be used as a policy provider by the java security (in case this is not specified the class sun.security.provider.PolicyFile will be used as stated by default in jdk’s jre/lib/security/java.security). Therefore, jini.sec.properties file contains the following line:
- policy.provider=net.jini.security.policy.DynamicPolicyProvider
Using JBoss 6.1 EAP beta (from 19.04.2013) I obtain the following exception at runtime:

Any suggestion to solve this issue is welcome.
Deliberately, I do not recall here all the attempts I have done to solve the issue (by following “similar” threads or suggestions).
Thank you,
