[jboss-user] [Beginners Corner] - JBoss 5 NoClassDefFoundError & Other Exceptions

Tue Jul 28 14:51:03 EDT 2009

I'm new at JBoss 5 and I've been stuck on this problem for a week and could really use (and appreciate) any help I can get.

I'm using JBoss 5.1.0 GA and I've tried JBoss 5 jdk5 version with JDK 5 and JBoss 5 jdk version with JDK 6 and have gotten the same results. I'm also using EJB3 with GWT and jBPM.

My ear application deploys perfectly on JBoss 4.2.3GA but not on JBoss 5. It keeps on complaining that usual Java classes, like org.w3c.dom.Document cannot be found. There's also a warning about the ClassLoader and I'm not sure if that's related. 

First of all, are these warning normal? Or is something already wrong when I start the JBoss 5 server. And how do I fix these warnings?

  | 18:16:20,791 WARN  [JBossASSecurityMetadataStore] WARNING! POTENTIAL SECURITY RISK. It has been detected that the MessageSucker component which sucks
  | messages from one node to another has not had its password changed from the installation default. Please see the JBoss Messaging user guide for instructions on how to do this.
  | 18:16:20,791 WARN  [AnnotationCreator] No ClassLoader provided, using TCCL: org.jboss.managed.api.annotation.ManagementComponent
  | 18:16:20,947 WARN  [AnnotationCreator] No ClassLoader provided, using TCCL: org.jboss.managed.api.annotation.ManagementComponent
  | 

Then when I deploy the EAR that works on JBoss 4, it gives me these different exceptions (depending on the scenario) in JBoss 5...

This exception occurs if I hit CTRL-C because nothing is happening:

Anyone seen anything like this? I also had the same NoClassDefFoundError when using javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder so I switched to using com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.DOMParser and it stopped complaining about it but that's just a hack/workaround, not really a solution. I also tried to put rt.jar and/or xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar (because they contain the org.w3c.dom classes) in ${jboss_home}/server/default/lib but it still doesn't solve the problem.

Also, both error messages mention something about the ClassLoader and there was a warning about it earlier--so I'm wondering if that's related at all? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
