Migrating Resource Adapter from JBoss 6 to WildFly

[simas_ch]

Hi,

I tried to migrate a resource adapter currently running on JBoss 6.1.0 to WildFly.

But I get an error:

The new in WildFly:

    <archive>

         ProShopUniversalConnector.rar

    </archive>

        <connection-definition class-name="com.prodega.proshop.integration.IODataSource" jndi-name="jca/IOConnector" pool-name="IOConnector"/>

    </connection-definitions>

</resource-adapter>

Thanks for your help.

Use http://www.ironjacamar.org/doc/userguide/1.1/en-US/html/ch10.html#tools_rarinfo 's sample deployment descriptor as a starting point

[simas_ch]

When I use the converter to convert the DataSource I get:

[jeff.zhang]

I use latest ironjacamar 1.1 and doing convert.

./converter.sh -ra proshop-ds.xml proshop-ra.xml

Hi Jeff,

That helped at least for the configuration.

Now I get an error when WildFly is deploying the RAR:

Please, use

http://www.ironjacamar.org/doc/userguide/1.1/en-US/html/ch10.html#tools_rarinfo

to get an overview of your .rar - it will contain a sample deployment descriptor too.

You'll need the implementation class of the ManagedConnectionFactory.

[simas_ch]

I can't see a problem as the connector runs on JBoss 6.1.0 and GlassFish 3 and 4

[jesper.pedersen]

You have

com.prodega.proshop.integration.spi.GenericManagedConnectionFactory

as the MCF ? Anyway, you may want to try the ./validator.sh on the .rar, as there appears to spec errors.

IronJacamar is pretty strict with the .rar implementations, since we depend on the spec contracts.

[simas_ch]

I run validator.sh and it says:

\dist\jca\ProShopUniversalConnector.rar

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.jboss.logging).

log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

Validation errors

But in the logfile is simply a warning:

Severity: WARNING

Section: 20.2

Description: Class files packaged inside RAR instead of JAR

[jesper.pedersen]

That should be ok - we can work around that.

Attach the source of the resource adapter if possible, if you still have deployment problems.

[simas_ch]

Source code attached.

Thanks a lot for your help!

[jesper.pedersen]

I can't something just looking at the file - so better break out the debugger, and see what you can find.

Let us know of your progress, and what the problem is/was.

[simas_ch]

How should I debug that?

The error happens when WildFly is deploying the resource adapter.

[jesper.pedersen]

Start by enabling TRACE logging for org.jboss.as.connector and org.jboss.jca - then check if the applied activation metadata is correct.

If so, start to debug through AbstractResourceAdapterDeployer to find the place where it goes wrong. If not, you are looking for something in WildFly, so you will need to debug there.

[simas_ch]

I found a warning in the log file:

2013-11-06 09:57:44,662 WARN  [org.jboss.as.connector.deployers.RaXmlDeployer] (MSC service thread 1-7) IJ020004: Only one connection definition found with a mismatch in class-name: com.prodega.proshop.integration.IODataSource

What does this mean?
