    JBoss EAP 6.3.0 Spring MVC deployment failure

      Greetings,

       

      I'm having some serious issues while deploying a Sping MVC (Maven) Web app to JBoss EAP 6.3 through eclipse luna (JBoss Tools (Luna). Until I don't use any frameworks deployment goes fine and I can access my webapps. In the moment I add a framework dependency I get the following deployment log:

      EAP 6.3.0 Deployment log error

      I tried to search for this error but couldn't find anything related. I found solutions for the error code but they were completely different. Any idea what is going wrong in here? The same issue occurs with the most basic application created with maven. In the moment I add springframework (core, web, webmvc) and start using them, I get this error.

          How are you adding the dependencies to your project? Could you upload the jboss-deployment-structure.xml and the module.xml for the module itself?

            Thank you for your response. I'm adding dependencies using pom.xml (It's a maven project). For

            <dependencies>
  <!-- Spring dependencies -->
  <dependency>
       <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
       <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
       <version>${spring.version}</version>
  </dependency>

       <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
       <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
       <version>${spring.version}</version>
  </dependency>

       <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
       <artifactId>spring-webmvc</artifactId>
       <version>${spring.version}</version>
  </dependency>
  <!-- Unit testing dependencies -->
  <dependency>
       <groupId>junit</groupId>
       <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
       <version>3.8.1</version>
       <scope>test</scope>
  </dependency>
  <!-- Logging dependencies -->
  <dependency>
       <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
       <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
       <version>1.2</version>
  </dependency>
  <!-- Javax (Not yet sure if required) -->
  <dependency>
       <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
       <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
       <version>3.0.1</version>
  <scope>provided</scope>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>

            The resolved dependencies are under a lib folder inside WEB-INF in the compiled .war file. All of them. However it seems like JBoss can't process Spring's DispatcherServlet. If I remove the following entry from the web.xml the deployment succeeds, but the application doesn't.

            <servlet>
     <servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
     <servlet-class>
       org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet
     </servlet-class>
     <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

            By removing the servlet-class the upper mentioned error does not appear and the deployment succeeds. The application however won't work. As for jboss-deployment-structure.xml, I am not using it at the moment. This is my first time working under JBoss application server, but I'll take a look at this xml.

             

            @Edit: After looking at the deployment-structure documentation I believe I don't need this functionality. I'm trying to deploy a wimple war not an ear where I would encounter ClassLoading problems. To give me details here's the server.log entry for the failed deployment:

            Those NullPointerExceptions are really bothersome for me.
            I've tried to deploy my application in the following ways:

            1. From Eclipse Luna
            2. From Command Line with mvn -X clean package org.jboss.as.plugins:jboss-as-maven-plugin:7.6.Final:deploy (By adding jboss-as-maven-plugin to pom.xml under build configuration)
            3. From Admin page through browser
            4. Through file system

            Well all of these results in the very same server.log message as I provided upper. The very same application depoys to GlassFish, Tomcat, Weblogic without any issues, so I don't think the problem is application related.

              I think you need to add a springmvc-resteasy.xml perhaps? Take a look at the JAX-RS Spring MVC (section 40.2) in the following documentation.

               

              RESTEasy JAX-RS

                I highly doubt. Resteasy has nothing to do with my application and it doesn't need it. Those exceptions arise within JBoss itself. I just don't think that resteasy is a required dependency for my project when I don't use it at all (and my app works on other app servers - glassfish, tomcat, weblogic).

                  Hello,

                   

                  i could generate the Exact error but on WildFly 9.0.0 Alpha 2. It can be a case what i have build WildFly using wrong version of Code. But i made sure i pulled it latest (master) repo from Git (Both Parent Aggregator and Core Aggregator). But the same works perfectly with Jboss EAP 6.2@@@@@

                       Do you have any space included in the EAP6.3 installation path?   If yes then remove that space. Means Install EAP 6.3 in  a PATH which does not include Space.

                      The issue was not because of space in the path.  It was due to a WAR which i was testing with the following context-param.  as a test case i used http://www.mkyong.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/RESTEasyt-Spring-Integration-Example.zip
