    "Services with missing/unavailable dependencies" for ear/lib jars

      Hi all. I'm porting an application from JBoss 4.2 to JBoss 7.1 on behalf of the company for which I work. I'm trying to deploy the application as standalone. The application is an exploded ear with the following structure (results of jar tf):

      When I start the server the deployment fails and in the .failed file I have the following message:

       

      {"JBAS014653: Composite operation failed and was rolled back. Steps that failed:" => {"Operation step-2" => {"JBAS014771: Services with missing/unavailable dependencies" => ["jboss.deployment.unit.\"uaEar.ear\".PARSEjboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/spring-context-2.5.1.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/spring-ldap-1.1.2.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/axis-saaj-1.4.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/aspectjrt-1.5.1a.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/mule-transport-vm-1.4.1.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/commons-collections-3.2.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/spring-beans-2.5.1.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/hibernate-3.2.0.cr2.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/spring-orm-2.5.1.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/mule-core-1.4.1.jar\".STRUCTURE, jboss.deployment.subunit.\"uaEar.ear\".\"lib/axis-jaxrpc-1.4.jar\".STRUCTURE, .........

       

      The complete message is in the attached file, but summarizing it seems that it needs some dependencies for all jars under ear/lib directory. Am I interpreting this message the right way? How can I solve this dependencies issue? How can I solve this problem using the jboss-deployment-structure.xml file (is it sufficient to use informations from tattletale report and insert them into the file or not)?

       

      Any help would be really appreciated.

       

      Thanks

      Filippo

          You have a few problems here.

          1. You must upgrade Spring Framework to 3.0.3 or newer. Versions between 2.5 and 3.0.2 do not work on JBossAS 5.x, 6.x or 7.x
          2. I think AS7.x only supports Hibernate 3.5 or newer
          3. You should remove the following jars, as the services they provide are provided by JBoss (and all other vendor's as well):
            1. activation-1.1.jar
            2. geronimo-jta_1.0.1B_spec-1.0.1.jar
            3. mail-1.4.jar
            4. xstream-1.4.3.jar
            5. I think the axis jars may be problematical as well.

           

          In theory JBoss will actually ignore these while they're in the EAR, but if any exist also in your WAR files then they may cause problems.

            Hi. Trying to understand the root of the problem I have created a minimal POC with the same structure of our company project, but only one dependency.

             

            This is the structure of the POC (all is within an .ear)

             

            META-INF/

            META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

            META-INF/application.xml

            lib/

            lib/commons-collections-3.2.jar

            helloWeb.war

             

            Basically is a simple hello world example. The content of the application.xml is the following:

             

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

            <application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/application_1_4.xsd" version="1.4">

              <description>HelloWorld Project</description>

              <display-name>HelloWorld</display-name>

              <initialize-in-order>true</initialize-in-order>

              <module>

                <java>lib/commons-collections-3.2.jar</java>

              </module>

              <module>

                <web>

                  <web-uri>helloWeb.war</web-uri>

                  <context-root>/hello</context-root>

                </web>

              </module>

            </application>

             

            When I go to deploy the application this is the result:

              commons-collections is only a library. Spo put it into the lib folder as you have, but do not reference it as a module in application.xml.

              Increase version of application.xml to 6 and specify lib as the library folder, just for clarification. Not needed, as it is the standard name.
