[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-877) too many classes on classpath break RAR deployments without deployment descriptor

too many classes on classpath break RAR deployments without deployment descriptor --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-877 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-877 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: JCA Reporter: Marcel Šebek Assignee: Stefano Maestri Fix For: 9.0.0.CR1 Attachments: test-ra.zip An EAR containing a RAR and a large number of classes cannot be deployed, the exception depends on jboss version. For example, the latest 7.1 snapshot produces the following: 14:37:57,354 INFO [org.jboss.as.server.deployment] (MSC service thread 1-1) JBAS015876: Starting deployment of "test-ear.ear" 14:37:57,499 INFO [org.jboss.as.server.deployment] (MSC service thread 1-4) JBAS015876: Starting deployment of "test-rar-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.rar" 14:37:57,499 INFO [org.jboss.as.server.deployment] (MSC service thread 1-2) JBAS015876: Starting deployment of "test-ejb-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" 14:37:57,807 ERROR [org.jboss.msc.service.fail] (MSC service thread 1-2) MSC00001: Failed to start service jboss.deployment.subunit."test-ear.ear"."test-rar-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.rar".INSTALL: org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.deployment.subunit."test-ear.ear"."test-rar-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.rar".INSTALL: JBAS018733: Failed to process phase INSTALL of subdeployment "test-rar-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.rar" of deployment "test-ear.ear" at org.jboss.as.server.deployment.DeploymentUnitPhaseService.start(DeploymentUnitPhaseService.java:123) [jboss-as-server-7.1.4.Final-SNAPSHOT.jar:7.1.4.Final-SNAPSHOT] at org.jboss.msc.service.ServiceControllerImpl$StartTask.startService(ServiceControllerImpl.java:1811) [jboss-msc-1.0.2.GA.jar:1.0.2.GA] at org.jboss.msc.service.ServiceControllerImpl$StartTask.run(ServiceControllerImpl.java:1746) [jboss-msc-1.0.2.GA.jar:1.0.2.GA] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1145) [rt.jar:1.7.0_13] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:615) [rt.jar:1.7.0_13] at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:722) [rt.jar:1.7.0_13] Caused by: org.jboss.as.server.deployment.DeploymentUnitProcessingException: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.jboss.as.connector.deployers.ra.processors.ParsedRaDeploymentProcessor.deploy(ParsedRaDeploymentProcessor.java:185) at org.jboss.as.server.deployment.DeploymentUnitPhaseService.start(DeploymentUnitPhaseService.java:116) [jboss-as-server-7.1.4.Final-SNAPSHOT.jar:7.1.4.Final-SNAPSHOT] ... 5 more Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.jboss.jca.common.metadata.ra.common.ResourceAdapter1516Impl.validate(ResourceAdapter1516Impl.java:351) at org.jboss.jca.common.metadata.ra.common.ConnectorAbstractmpl.validate(ConnectorAbstractmpl.java:332) at org.jboss.as.connector.deployers.ra.processors.ParsedRaDeploymentProcessor.deploy(ParsedRaDeploymentProcessor.java:142) ... 6 more 14:37:58,104 INFO [org.jboss.as.server] (DeploymentScanner-threads -

An EAR that exhibits this is attached. If you comment out maven dependencies, you will be able to deploy the same EAR. If you put different dependencies, you will get the same error again. The problem seems to depend only on the classpath size, more classes causes the problem to occur more likely. The problem is that when JCA container builds ra.xml from JCA 1.6 annotations, for some reason the content of <resourceadapter-class> tag is null (the string "null"). As a workaround for resource adapters with large classpath, one can supply a deployment descriptor with just <resourceadapter-class> tag containing the correct value.
