Weblogic deployment causes - Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.dao.annotation.PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor#0'

Question

I am using Hibernate 4, Spring 3 , JSF 2.0 and Weblogic 10.3.6

When I start weblogic server and server starts successfully, however whenever it starts publishing application, I am getting the following exception.

   Error creating bean with name 
 'org.springframework.dao.annotation.PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor#0' 
  defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: 
  Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is 
  org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: 

    Caused By: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating 
   bean with name 'entityManagerFactory'defined in ServletContext resource 
   [/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; 
   nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 
   javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceUnitInfo.getSharedCacheMode()Ljavax/persistence/
   SharedCacheMode;

In Weblogic 10.3.6 I have enabled JPA2 support by adding the following in commEnv.cmd

@rem Enable JPA 2.0 functionality on WebLogic Server 
set PRE_CLASSPATH=%BEA_HOME%\modules\javax.persistence_1.1.0.0_2-0.jar;
%BEA_HOME%\modules\com.oracle.jpa2support_1.0.0.0_2-1.jar

How can I resolve this error?

@ManjulaWeerasinge As mentioned in the post I already have the following in pom.xml <dependency> <groupId>org.hibernate.javax.persistence</groupId> <artifactId>hibernate-jpa-2.0-api</artifactId> <version>1.0.1.Final</version> </dependency>' — Jacob

@Polppan: Just out of interest, is there a specific reason why you're using your own connection pool rather than using a weblogic datasource? — beny23
– beny23, Commented Jan 28, 2013 at 10:55
@beny23 If I would want to use weblogic datasource what I need to do? Besides does this have any relation with this error? Thanks — Jacob
– Jacob, Commented Jan 28, 2013 at 10:58
@Polppan: Define your datasource through the weblogic console and then use a jndi datasource in spring: static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.2.x/… but this is probably unrelated to the error. — beny23

This issue has been resolved, for Weblogic 10.3.6 exe distribution there is no javax.persistence_1.0.0.0_2-0-0.jar, what it has is javax.persistence_1.1.0.0_2-0.jar.

That class along with jpa2support_1.0.0.0_2-0.jar needs to be in classpath.

Thanks

Maybe the problem is related to the classloading hierarchy and some classes are loaded from the system class loader rather than the jars included in your EAR.

In WebLogic Server, any .jar file present in the system classpath is loaded by the WebLogic Server system classloader. All applications running within a server instance are loaded in application classloaders which are children of the system classloader. In this implementation of the system classloader, applications cannot use different versions of third-party jars which are already present in the system classloader. Every child classloader asks the parent (the system classloader) for a particular class and cannot load classes which are seen by the parent.

For example, if a class called com.foo.Baz exists in both $CLASSPATH as well as the application EAR, then the class from the $CLASSPATH is loaded and not the one from the EAR. Since weblogic.jar is in the $CLASSPATH, applications can not override any WebLogic Server classes.

The FilteringClassLoader provides a mechanism for you to configure deployment descriptors to explicitly specify that certain packages should always be loaded from the application, rather than being loaded by the system classloader.

The FilteringClassLoader sits between the application classloader and the system. It is a child of the system classloader and the parent of the application classloader. The FilteringClassLoader intercepts the loadClass(String className) method and compares the className with a list of packages specified in weblogic-application.xml file.

In conclusion would you try to modify your weblogic-application.xml as to load some packages from the jars included in your EAR rather than the system class loader? A sample example is the following:

<prefer-application-packages>
    <package-name>antlr.*</package-name>
    <package-name>org.apache.commons.*</package-name>
    <package-name>org.apache.xmlbeans.*</package-name>
    <package-name>org.springframework.*</package-name>
    <package-name>org.hibernate.*</package-name>
    <package-name>javax.persistence.*</package-name>
</prefer-application-packages>

Tolis, I am not deploying application to Weblogic server. In eclipse for development I have configured WLS 10.3.6 in Server. When I publish my application I am getting these exceptions. Application is working fine in another instance of same source files. I have installed a new WLS and in another machine and with this I am getting these exceptions.

Jacob Over a year ago

Tolis Application which works on WLS 10.3.6 is download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls/1036/… and the one which is not working is download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls/1036/… in this page
