Simple jee 6 compliance seam_weld demo project incompatible on jboss and glassfish

infinity2heaven Jan 27, 2011 12:56 PM

I was able to deploy the base weld archetype project into glassfish3 and jboss6.However, when I added seam3 jars to it with no change in functionality except these:
-- swapped weld-extensions jar with seam-solder
-- changed org.slf4j.Logger to org.jboss.logging.Logger in two service files
-- changed to mysql

I'm not able to deploy on glassfish anymore (continues to deploy on jboss6 though). I can verify that mysql ds is working fine on glassfish. On initial deploy using asadmin, it threw a persistence error on SeedDataImporter so I removed the file and ran again and here is the error.

com.sun.enterprise.admin.cli.CommandException: remote failure: Exception while deploying the app : java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unknown JCDI-enabled managed bean com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer@371c24d2 of class class com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer

It seems that there's a jira issue fixed on glassfish 3.1b.

My question is, if a simple JEE6 compliance demo project like this one can't guarantee compatibility among standard JEE6 containers, what's the point of working on a JEE6 project?

Note that after debugging for a bit, the root cause of this was found to be weld-extensions-1.0.0.Beta1 or seam-solder.3.0.0.Beta1. On the base archetype that worked on glassfish, it was weld-extensions-1.0.0.Alpha2. So Seam 3Beta broke it or is it a bug in glassfish3.0.1?

Solder currently does not work in Glassfish 3.0.1. There are bugs in the integration code. In Glassfish 3.1 we have found some additional bugs beyond what we originally thought and are working on getting them ironed out.

A work around for 3.1 (maybe possibly work, I haven't tried, on 3.0.1 with the current version of Solder) is to jar up any of your application classes making use of CDI and add the jar to WEB-INF/lib.

It would help to add a disclaimer on Seam 3 home page in bold like this
"Seam 3 Beta_Alpha" only works on JBoss 6" to prevent other developers from wasting debugging efforts.
