[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & DEPLOYMENT] - Re: Problem deploying a JPA web application

You are correct with your bet, sir. I do have hibernate JARs in my WAR. I tried removing the hibernate*.jars from my WAR, but I am still getting a classcast error, a different one this time: 12:04:25,625 INFO [TomcatDeployer] deploy, ctxPath=/sujuvuus-webapp-1.0-SNAPSHOT, warUrl=.../tmp/deploy/tmp18674sujuvuus-webapp-1.0-SNAPSHOT-exp.war/ 12:04:32,015 INFO [STDOUT] ERROR [ScannerThread] ContextLoader.initWebApplicationContext(203) | Context initialization failed org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionAttributeSou rceAdvisor': Cannot create inner bean '(inner bean)' of type [org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionInterceptor] while setting bean proper ty 'transactionInterceptor'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name '(inner bean)': Can not resolve reference to bean 'transactionManager' while setting bean property 'transactionManager'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.

with JBoss. I want to be able to pick and choose the hibernate version freely by updating the WAR. I tried to make JBoss classloading "isolated" from server classes using the instructions in http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ClassLoadingConfiguration so - I added this jboss-web.xml in WAR's WEB-INF: <jboss-web> <class-loading java2ClassLoadingCompliance="false"> <loader-repository> com.example.loaderrepository:loader=sujuvuus-webapp.war <loader-repository-config>java2ParentDelegation=false</loader-repository-config> </loader-repository> </class-loading> </jboss-web> and included the hibernate JARs once again. No help - I am still getting the java.lang.ClassCastException: org.hibernate.search.event.FullTextIndexEventListener errors. Am I doing something wrong, how can I use my own hibernate JARs?
