ERROR [ContextLoader] [] - Context initialization failed

Has anybody experiences with this kind of migrations? Is my idear Right that everything that is running on Tomcat should run on Jboss Web as well? How can fight tis logging problem?

Ok enough questions at once..Thanks for anwering.

[jfclere]

jbossweb-2.1.x isn't supporting the specs level of tomcat7 you should try to use AS7.

The problem you have looks to be a missing jboss-logging.jar

[mikemike]

jboss-logging.jar is a transitive dependency of hibernate4 and after the maven build it is packaged within the war. I also tried a direct specification, but it was not helping. Nevertheless I got my application running on JBoss AS 7.1.1.

Thank you for helping.

Dear JBoss advertiser,

“JBoss Web Server is based on Apache Tomcat that is used in the official Reference Implementation or the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies.” [http://www.jboss.org/jbossweb/introduction.html]

It sounds for me that JBoss-Web is even more than a simple Tomcat. I couldn’t find the concrete specification or at least a list of differences. But this might be helpful for others to choose the right platform in the first shot.

Hello,

In case someone need this feedback.

Got the same problem because I was using org.jboss.logging-3.1.0.GA needed by Springframework 4.1.3 Final.

The solution for me was to exclude org.jboss.logging coming from Hibernate and add org.jboss.logging-3.2.0.Final to my project in the pom.xml. As specify here ([JBLOGGING-70] JBoss LogManager detection is still incorrect - JBoss Issue Tracker) org.jboss.logging-3.1.0.GA (and CR2) has a failure in LoggerProviders detection and it is fixed in 3.2.0 Final (https://github.com/jboss-logging/jboss-logging/commit/787577b1d42f49ba464fc11c2ac5fd307dfdccb0)
