[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & DEPLOYMENT] - Scoped ClassLoading + commons-collections.jar

[Tarantul]

Dear JBoss Users,

I am trying to migrate a war-application (that was already running on Tomcat) to JBoss5.1.0GA. After some revaluation of my web.xml file and some fighting with JBoss-classloading it is finally possible to deploy it. Yippee!

BUT! Now I have a following problem while running the application:

  | java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.commons.collections.CollectionUtils.isNotEmpty(Ljava/util/Collection;)Z
  | 

After some "investigation" I've found, that it's because of the jboss-5.1.0.GA/common/lib/commons-collections.jar version is prior to 3.2. 

My application is however configured for the isolated classloading by the "jboss-classloading.xml":


  | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  | 
  | <classloading xmlns="urn:jboss:classloading:1.0"
  |               name="reportal.war"
  |               domain="MyWar_Domain"
  |               export-all="NON_EMPTY"
  |               import-all="false">
  | </classloading>
  | 

Thats why I would expect my application to use a commons-collections-3.2.jar from WEB-INF/lib folder within the application war folder. What obviously is not the case.

Replacing the jboss-5.1.0.GA/common/lib/commons-collections.jar with a newer version solves the problem. It is though not really a preferred option cause of the requirement I have - in an optimal way there should be as less customization on JBoss as possible.

The question now is:
Why isn't the applications own commons-collections.jar loaded?
How do I can achieve it?
