Deploying EAR into JBoss 7.1.1

[nakshathri]

Hello All,

We are migrating application ear from Weblogic to JBoss 7.1.1. Below is the content of the ear:

lib

• All dependent Jars

war file

META-INF

• application.xml
• jboss-app.xml
• jboss-deployment-structure.xml
• jboss-all.xml

Attached are the files. When i deploy the ear we are getting below exception

20:12:49,182 WARN  [org.jboss.as.server.deployment] (MSC service thread 1-1) Class Path entry jackson-mapper-asl-1.8.11.jar in "/G:/Manjunath/Projects/FWCMS/Sof

twares/jboss-as-7.1.1/bin/content/tc-app-1.0.0.ear/tc-web-1.0.0.war"  does not point to a valid jar for a Class-Path reference.

This warning is coming for all the jars which are been included as part lib folder within ear. And below is the roll back exception:

Really appreciate if you can help me to identify the issue wrt to this deployment. Appreciate your help.

If you turn on DEBUG/TRACE level logs for org.jboss you will come to know what exactly is missing/not found. You can then add appropriate depedencies in jboss-deployment-structure.xml. At least, that's how I solved my deployment issues.

[sfcoy]

The warnings are irritating, but normal. It's not necessary to add manifest classpaths referencing jars that are installed in an EAR/lib directory.

There's something else wrong. Please attach your entire server.log.

[nakshathri]

Hello Stephen and Atul,

I have attached the server.log and also the boot.log with the debug on for the org.jboss. Really appreciate if you can help me in fixing this issue.

Regards,

Manjunath.

1. Please show us the output of:

     $ jar tf tc-app-1.0.0.ear

2. Please attach your standalone.xml file

Hello Stephen,

Below is the result of jar tf tc-app-1.0.0.ear. Also I have attached the standalone.xml.

Please remove the following jars from the EAR:

lib/activation-1.1.jar

lib/hibernate-jpa-2.0-api-1.0.1.Final.jar

lib/javax.inject-1.jar

lib/jms-api-1.1-rev-1.jar

lib/jstl-1.2.jar

lib/jta-1.1.jar

lib/mail-1.4.3.jar

lib/stax-1.2.0.jar

lib/stax-api-1.0.1.jar

These all provide code that is part of JBoss and their presence can cause weird and ugly things to happen.

Also, as you are using the jersey RS implementation you need to exclude the standard JBoss RestEasy module in your jboss-deployment-structure.xml file.

[sfcoy]

And the real problem:

{code:xml}
  <module>
    <java>lib/tc-generated-1.0.0.jar</java>
  </module>
  <module>
    <java>lib/tc-model-1.0.0.jar</java>
  </module>
  <module>
    <java>lib/tc-common-1.0.0.jar</java>
  </module>
  <module>
    <java>lib/tc-services-1.0.0.jar</java>
  </module>
{code}

Remove these from your application.xml. "java" modules are for application clients. Jars that are placed in the the EAR/lib directory are automatically made available to the application.

I still recommend that you remove the jars referenced in my earlier response and remove the manifest classpath entries from the WAR file.

[nakshathri]

Thank you Stephen. This is how my application.xml looks now :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE application PUBLIC

          "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD J2EE Application 1.3//EN"

          "http://java.sun.com/dtd/application_1_3.dtd">

<application>

  <display-name>tc-app</display-name>

  <module>

    <web>

      <web-uri>tc-web-1.0.0.war</web-uri>

      <context-root>/tc</context-root>

    </web>

  </module>

</application>

And this is what i have added for the jboss-deployment-structure.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<jboss-deployment-structure>

    <ear-subdeployments-isolated>false</ear-subdeployments-isolated>

    <deployment>

                    <exclusions>

                              <module name="org.jboss.as.jaxrs" />

                    </exclusions>

          </deployment>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

But after deploying this gives me error:

org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.deployment.unit."tc-app-1.0.0.ear".POST_MODULE: Failed to process phase POST_MODULE of deployment "tc-app

-1.0.0.ear"

But if i comment below lines in standalone.xml, then the deployment was successful.

<extension module="org.jboss.as.jaxrs"/>

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:jaxrs:1.0"/>

Please suggest. Also as we had in JBoss 5.1, the jboss.home.url etc JBoss Properties, are they available in JBoss 7.1? I was not able to use jboss.home.url in JBoss 7.1.1.
