[seam-dev] seam-booking from CR3 preliminary testing results on WebSphere v8 beta

[Denis Forveille]

I'm trying to deploy the seam-booking app on WebSphere v8 beta (WAS).

It still fails to start. My discoveries:

Extension that have their constructor in scope "package" instead of "public" that makes the initialization to fail in WAS:
- org.jboss.seam.servlet.ServletExtension    --> Dan you wrote in a previous mail that it was solved in CR3, it is not
- org.jboss.seam.servlet.logging.TypedMessageBundleAndLoggerExtension
- org.jboss.seam.solder.logging.TypedMessageLoggerExtension
- org.jboss.seam.solder.messages.TypedMessageBundleExtension
- org.jboss.seam.solder.serviceHandler.ServiceHandlerExtension
They may be other but they have not been "seen" by the initialization process..

Dan, if you want to create JIRA for those, please let me know

Missing jar in CR3 distribution. Both were included in CR2
- ocpsoft-pretty-time.jar (Used by org.jboss.seam.examples.booking.booking.BookingAgent)
- prettyfaces-jsf2.jar. Not sure for this one, but there is a file name pretty-config.xml under WEB-INF...Maybe this is the later 
file that should not be there.

If you want me to create JIRAs for those, I will

And now I'm stuck with this exception at startup:

I will try to investigate why this occur
