[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (SEAMSERVLET-29) Deployment to Glassfish AS 3.1 fails with java.lang.NullPointerException

Deployment to Glassfish AS 3.1 fails with java.lang.NullPointerException ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: SEAMSERVLET-29 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMSERVLET-29 Project: Seam Servlet Issue Type: Bug Components: Compliance Affects Versions: 3.0.0.CR1 Environment: Glassfish 3.1 (release), Linux (Ubuntu 10.10), Java 1.6.0_20 Reporter: Craig Ringer Assignee: Dan Allen Fix For: 3.0.0.Final Deployment of an empty skeleton application to a Glassfish AS 3.1 server fails with java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.seam.solder.beanManager.BeanManagerAware . It appears that the 3.0.0.CR1 release depends on Seam Solder, but the maven pom doesn't declare that, so the dependency decaration: <dependency> <groupId>org.jboss.seam.servlet</groupId> <artifactId>seam-servlet</artifactId> <version>3.0.0.CR1</version> </dependency> causes failure. If I explicitly add a dependency on Seam Solder: <dependency> <groupId>org.jboss.seam.servlet</groupId> <artifactId>seam-servlet</artifactId> <version>3.0.0.CR1</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.jboss.seam.solder</groupId> <artifactId>seam-solder</artifactId> <version>3.0.0.CR1</version> </dependency> , the failure changes to a NPE that looks like it's deep in the Glassfish deployment code, as shown below. Deploying Seam Solder alone, without Seam Servlet, works fine, but when both are present the deployment log shows: SEVERE: Exception while deploying the app [com.mycompany_dummy_war_1.0-SNAPSHOT] SEVERE: The log message is null. java.lang.NullPointerException at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.OrderingDescriptor$Node.access$300(OrderingDescriptor.java:434) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.OrderingDescriptor.sort(OrderingDescriptor.java:169) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.WebArchivist.readStandardFragments(WebArchivist.java:438) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.WebArchivist.postAnnotationProcess(WebArchivist.java:350) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.WebArchivist.postAnnotationProcess(WebArchivist.java:89) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.Archivist.readRestDeploymentDescriptors(Archivist.java:409) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.Archivist.readDeploymentDescriptors(Archivist.java:383) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.Archivist.open(Archivist.java:246) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.Archivist.open(Archivist.java:255) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.Archivist.open(Archivist.java:216) at com.sun.enterprise.deployment.archivist.ApplicationFactory.openArchive(ApplicationFactory.java:165) at org.glassfish.javaee.core.deployment.DolProvider.load(DolProvider.java:180) at org.glassfish.javaee.core.deployment.DolProvider.load(DolProvider.java:93) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.server.ApplicationLifecycle.loadDeployer(ApplicationLifecycle.java:826) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.server.ApplicationLifecycle.setupContainerInfos(ApplicationLifecycle.java:768) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.server.ApplicationLifecycle.deploy(ApplicationLifecycle.java:368) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.server.ApplicationLifecycle.deploy(ApplicationLifecycle.java:240) at org.glassfish.deployment.admin.DeployCommand.execute(DeployCommand.java:370) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.CommandRunnerImpl$1.execute(CommandRunnerImpl.java:355) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.CommandRunnerImpl.doCommand(CommandRunnerImpl.java:370) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.CommandRunnerImpl.doCommand(CommandRunnerImpl.java:1067) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.CommandRunnerImpl.access$1200(CommandRunnerImpl.java:96) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.CommandRunnerImpl$ExecutionContext.execute(CommandRunnerImpl.java:1247) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.CommandRunnerImpl$ExecutionContext.execute(CommandRunnerImpl.java:1235) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.AdminAdapter.doCommand(AdminAdapter.java:465) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.admin.AdminAdapter.service(AdminAdapter.java:222) at com.sun.grizzly.tcp.http11.GrizzlyAdapter.service(GrizzlyAdapter.java:168) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.server.HK2Dispatcher.dispath(HK2Dispatcher.java:117) at com.sun.enterprise.v3.services.impl.ContainerMapper.service(ContainerMapper.java:234) at com.sun.grizzly.http.ProcessorTask.invokeAdapter(ProcessorTask.java:822) at com.sun.grizzly.http.ProcessorTask.doProcess(ProcessorTask.java:719) at com.sun.grizzly.http.ProcessorTask.process(ProcessorTask.java:1013) at com.sun.grizzly.http.DefaultProtocolFilter.execute(DefaultProtocolFilter.java:225) at com.sun.grizzly.DefaultProtocolChain.executeProtocolFilter(DefaultProtocolChain.java:137) at com.sun.grizzly.DefaultProtocolChain.execute(DefaultProtocolChain.java:104) at com.sun.grizzly.DefaultProtocolChain.execute(DefaultProtocolChain.java:90) at com.sun.grizzly.http.HttpProtocolChain.execute(HttpProtocolChain.java:79) at com.sun.grizzly.ProtocolChainContextTask.doCall(ProtocolChainContextTask.java:54) at com.sun.grizzly.SelectionKeyContextTask.call(SelectionKeyContextTask.java:59) at com.sun.grizzly.ContextTask.run(ContextTask.java:71) at com.sun.grizzly.util.AbstractThreadPool$Worker.doWork(AbstractThreadPool.java:532) at com.sun.grizzly.util.AbstractThreadPool$Worker.run(AbstractThreadPool.java:513) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:636) SEVERE: Exception while deploying the app [com.mycompany_dummy_war_1.0-SNAPSHOT]
