Error: libapr-1.dll was not found starting JBossAS in JBoss IDE
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBIDE-2735
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-2735
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JBossAS
Affects Versions: 2.1.2
Environment: Eclipse: 3.3.1.1
OS: Windows
JBoss AS 4.2.2GA JBossWeb native
Reporter: hmr_mueller
When starting the JBossAS 4.2.2GA with JBoss Web native configured from within a JBoss
Server configured with the Eclipse IDE (JBoss Tools), I'm getting the error '...
libapr-1.dll was not found ..' as a popup. After closing the popup for 3 times the
server starts, but does so with errors when starting the Tomcat https connector. When
running the run.bat script from the command line everything works fine.
Tomcat is configured to used the AprLifecycleListener and a https connector for APR
(OpenSSL style configuration).
The server launch configuration in eclipse contains the $JBOSS_HOME\bin\native directory
in the -Djava.library.path variable
The problem seems to be that the libtcnative-1.dll is loading the libapr-1.dll dynamically
but since the Path environment variable does not contain the $JBOSS_HOME\bin\native
directory the library is not found (setting this is done by the run.bat script).
If I put the native directory in the Path variable, the server starts up correctly, so
just defining the java.library.path in the launch configuration does not suffice.
The problem can be fixed I think, if instead of setting the java.library.path the launch
configuration extends the environment (Tab Environment) to contain the native directory in
the Path environment variable and changing the class
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.core.server.internal.launch.AbstractJBossLaunchConfigType to add
this to the 'VMRunnerConfiguration' in the 'actualLaunch' method.
