Standalone OpenEJB packaging with dependencies - openejb

there's some documentation/specification about how to package and deploy EJB with dependencies on OpenEJB?
I tried to deploy an EAR package:
service.ear/lib/activemq-all.jar
service.ear/META-INF/application.xml
service.ear/model.ejb!META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
service.ear/model.ejb!com/example/MyActivemqDependentService.class
It was deployed successfully, client can find using JNDI, but, when it initialized, NoClassDefFound exception ocurr.

ActiveMQ already comes with OpenEJB, I wouldn't expect it to work including it in the EAR as well.
That could very likely be the source of your NoClassDefFoundErrors. Removing that activemq-all.jar is the first thing I'd try.

Vaadin 23 application doesn't recognize vaadin-dev-server dependency when running in development mode

I'm in the process of upgrading a Vaadin Flow application from Vaadin 14 to Vaadin 22. I'm using Gradle 6.9.1 to build the application. When I run the application in Eclipse, I get warnings and errors in the logs identical to those documented in issue 11982. According to this issue, this initial warning about the vaadin-dev-server dependency is the most relevant message:
WARN [] [VaadinServletService] [qtp819245704-14] no DevModeHandlerManager implementation found but dev server enabled. Include the com.vaadin.vaadin-dev-server dependency.
I have included the dependency in my build.gradle file. Here are the dependencies that are relevant to Vaadin:
dependencies {
implementation "com.vaadin:vaadin-core:22.+"
implementation "com.vaadin:vaadin-dev-server:9.0.0"
}
I can see vaadin-dev-server-9.0.0.jar in my Referenced Libraries within Eclipse along with the other Vaadin .jar files. All of them are located in my Gradle cache.
Am I missing something, or is there anything I can do to resolve this issue? Let me know if there's any more information I can provide.
Edit: I'm now trying to upgrade the application to Vaadin 23 instead and I'm experiencing the same issue. I'm also getting the webpack error referenced in this question. If it helps, I'm running the project locally using embedded Jetty and I'm manually instantiating and invoking the initializers used by Vaadin as described in this answer.

Grails/aNimble on Windows : Getting cannot find the specified path

I am trying to setup aNimble on Windows following this article.
I have setup the Java and MySQL (xampp) on Windows and both are working properly.
Now, as the final step I need to execute
grails prod execute-database-scripts-all
but I am getting cannot find the specified path. Even when I type grails only I get the same error. I have zero experience in Grails, but it seems that I need to install Grails first on the PC. Until I do this, I want to know is there anything else that I need to do this to successfully execute this command.
What are the three portions of this command grails, prod and execute-database-scripts-all
This error means that Windows is unable to find grails executable anywhere it looks (in any paths specified in PATH system property) when you typing grails command. You may have to follow this guide in order to install grails application framework properly in your system (also, make sure you are installing a correct version of grails compatible with your distribution of aNimble) and then retry.
Grails is a web application framework and which provides a set of tools to develop, build and run web applications like aNimble, prod is a command line option for grails telling it to run in a production mode and execute-database-scripts-all is aNimble-specific command to initialize it's database.

Issue Deploying a Grails 2.1.1 app to JBoss because of Xerces

I have a Grails app that uses the Rest plugin
When I drop my war into my JBoss deploy directory and start it up, the deployment of the app fails because of the following error:
2012-11-01 15:48:33,931 ERROR [org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.deployers.JBossContextConfig] XML error parsing: context.xml
org.jboss.xb.binding.JBossXBRuntimeException: Failed to create a new SAX parser
I believe this refers to the grails app containing a version on xercesImpl as well as JBoss having it's own. We usually rectify this by removing xercesImpl from our apps or setting them to "provided" scope.
I'm trying to figure out how I fix this deploy issue. I'm assuming I have to edit the BuildConfig.groovy script and tell it, somehow, to exclude xerces right? How would I do that for this plugin? If this were a "dependency" that appears to be easy to specify the exclusions. But I'm not sure how to do it for this plugin...
any ideas?
In your BuildConfig.groovy add this:
inherits('global') {
excludes 'serializer'
}
It turns out, doing the following in the plugin section of my BuildConfig.groovy did the trick after all...
compile(":rest:0.7"){
excludes "xercesImpl"
}

Grails JBOSSAS Plugin -- How To get it To Work?

Newbie Question:
I've been required to deploy a grails app to jboss 5. I'm having a hell of a time figuring out how to take advantage of the grails jbossas plugin. I've followed the documentation as best as I know how, but I get the same exceptions just as if the plugin was never there.
Here's the documentation i've been following:
http://grails-plugins.github.com/grails-jbossas/docs/manual/guide/2%20Usage.html
I've added the plugin to the BuildConfig.groovy plugin{} closure. I then called grails war. Nothing happens and my war deploy bombs out.
Could somebody give a newbie a little hand holding to get this plugin to work? Unfortunately, I'm finding the documentation to be wanting in the regard of actually telling you how to use it, or when the plugin will do its magic.
UPDATE:
My environment:
Mac OS X Lion Dev machine
Grails 2.0.3
JBoss 5.1.0 -- running a Liferay instance.
Burt, I've done the following:
grails generate-jboss-deploy 5
grails war.
scp the generated war file to the deploy-jboss directory on my remote server.
Dutifully, jboss picked up the new war and attempted to deploy it. I'm getting the following (now dreaded) exception:
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator
Per the usage instructions, I've modified Datasource.groovy's hibernate configuration:
hibernate {
cache.use_second_level_cache = true
cache.use_query_cache = true
cache.region.factory_class = 'net.sf.ehcache.hibernate.EhCacheRegionFactory'
validator.apply_to_ddl = false
validator.autoregister_listeners = false
}
The only file that seems to have been modified or created by running the generate-jboss-delpoy 5 script is WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml. It's contents are:
<jboss-web>
<class-loading java2ClassLoadingCompliance="false">
<loader-repository>
sappi-label:loader=sappi-label.war
<loader-repository-config>java2ParentDelegation=false</loader-repository-config>
</loader-repository>
</class-loading>
</jboss-web>
I confirmed that the jboss-web.xml file is present in the generated war file (exploded, then checked the directory).
Burt: what files other than jboss-web.xml should have been altered?
UPDATE (Again):
I don't think there's anything wrong with the jbossas plugin. I've done more testing and see that the plugin is doing what it is supposed to do: remove jars, put in jboss-web.xml. I haven't been able to confirm that it modifies the hibernate config, but I assume it is. I think the problem lies within the server I'm attempting to deploy to, a Liferay instance.
regardless of what I'm doing I get an exception saying that slf4j was unable to load successfully. Nothing more, nothing less. I'll keep whacking away at the problem, but it is out of scope of my original question. Burt, thanks for your help. If you have any ideas about why slf4j vomits in a Liferay/jboss environment, please let me know.
Regards.
Thanks!
I guess I didn't make it clear that you need to run the generate-jboss-deploy script, passing in the major version of JBoss that you're using, so in your case generate-jboss-deploy 5. I've updated the docs to describe this.
If this doesn't help please update your question with some indication of what the errors that you're seeing are.

Grails - trying to deploy a nojars application into glassfish 3.0.1

Because of memory constraint i am trying to build a grails app with smaller memory footprint. I build the war with this argument "--nojars". I created a war file without all the jar and when i deploy within the glassfish i encounter this error
Exception while loading the app : java.lang.Exception: java.lang.IllegalStateException: ContainerBase.addChild: start: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.codehaus.groovy.grails.web.util.Log4jConfigListener
It seems like the application fail to find where is the jar file.
I had already indicates the path to the library before deploying the application in glassfish.
did i miss out somethinng?
It is commonly recommended to use GlassFish's Common Classloader. That means putting the shared JARS into the $domain-dir/lib folder (but not into a subfolder of that).
You're probably trying to use the Application Classloader with the asadmin deploy --libraries command. This is more complicated and error-prone. If you don't need different versions of the same JARs with different web applications, you should definitely go for the Common Classloader as specified above.
Also see The Classloader Hierarchy for a reference.
EDIT Updated as per the questioner's comment:
The domain/domain1/lib folder definitely works (I've tested that). To validate that, put log4j.jar into that folder and add a test.jsp to domain1/applications/$applicationName, that just contains:
<% out.println(
org.apache.log4j.Logger.getLogger(this.getClass())); %>
If that works but your other code does not, there may be another point to consider: Are you using Log4J's Logger.getLogger(..) or Apache Commons' LogFactory.getInstance(..) in your code?
See the article Taxonomy of class loader problems encountered when using Jakarta Commons Logging for related issues. - I'd also like to advise you to post your complete stacktrace.
