Jar files not in WEB-INF/lib (custom ClassLoader?)
I need to use classes in my JSP that do not come from a JAR file in the standard location. Sounds like I "simply" need to extend the ClassLoader used by the app server for loading the JSP. Is there any way of doing that?
Example: my.jsp
<h1>Hi</h1>
<%
FOO x = new FOO(); // code from a non-standard place
ClassLoader cl = getClass().getClassLoader();
%>
I cannot put FOO.class into WEB-INF/lib or any of the standard places. Ideally I'd like to give the ClassLoader (cl above) a different (custom) parent ClassLoader which would know how to resolve FOO.class.
I've poured over docs and Google and WebSphere and the Tomcat source code. Is this request of mine really so outrageous? I'm about the give up. What good are custom classloaders if one can't use them?
You are essentially making the argument "All that Java
needs is a URLClassLoader, and no one has any need for
any custom ClassLoaders". (After all, that's all that
I seem to have in a JSP context, with a list of
hard-coded URLs into that URLClassLoader ...)
Do a Google search on "custom ClassLoader" and you
will find lots of reasons why people want to have
custom ClassLoaders, such as ones that don't use any
JAR or .class files ... which would qualify as why I
can't put them into a certain place ...To be fair to duffymo, that is not how I read his argument. I read it as:
"Sometimes we try to do things the hard way. If we sit back and rethink the problem, an easier solution might come about."
I think this is a good opportunity to explain why you can not use the normal class loader heirarchy. You have no JARs and no .class files? Then where are you getting the class definitions? If you explain enough so that we might understand the problem:
1) we might be able to come up with a solution or
2) you might see a different approach before you are even done explaining
#2 has happened to me more times then I can count. I sit down formulating a question for the forums, make sure I include enough detail to explain my problem. And by the time I am done I have a new (usually simpler) approach to solving the problem.
Or you could sit and defend your first approach without providing any context and accomplish nothing. So its up to you.

Hi,
The application deployment works fine with Tomcat 4.0.6.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
chetFound the solution...
The deploy directory needs to have a temp directory in
it!!!!We have had this problem too when upgrading to 4.1.27 but are confused about which directory should have a temp directory under it, and what the permission should be. Could someone enlighten us ?
Thanks

Project librarys not included in WAR file with deployment (WEB-INF/lib)
Using JDeveloper 9.0.5.2
Project Libraries are not included in WEB-INF/lib when deploying. Although the files are selected in the deployment file at 'Contributors'. Within the 'filter' the .jar files are missing.
To solve it i have to register again (i have already made the librarys project library's) the files within Tools->ManageLibrarys as user library's.
The other workaround is to make the library's System Library's within the project.
In my opinion it is a bug that you must include the project librarys as user librarys within the 'LibraryManager'Unfortunately no, the issue with output folder being ignored occurs only with example apps bundled with Workshop product.
You can try the following workaround:
- In Workshop, Project > Properties - Java Build Path, switch to Source tab - "Remove the source folder listing" - Click OK and dismiss Properties window.
- Project > Properties - Java Build Path > Source Tab, add the same source folder entry - Click OK
- Export as WAR
With this you should see the class files bundled under output directory structure (Ex: WEB-INF/classes). -

OAS 10.1.3 isn't detecting /WEB-INF/lib jar files within WAR file
Hello,
I have been developing and testing a simple non-EJB web application on Tomcat 5.5 with no class loading difficulties for the past several months. All of the needed JARs for my app are located under the WEB-INF/lib directory. My next task is to deploy the WAR file containing my webapp on the Oracle 10g (10.1.3) application server.
The problem I am having when trying to do this is that when I deploy the WAR file from Oracle Enterprise Manager, the WAR file will expand correctly but at runtime OAS doesn't appear to be detecting the JAR files in the WEB-INF/lib folder of my WAR file. I have confirmed that the JAR files are indeed being expanded in the directory that OC4J expands the WAR file into:
appserver/j2ee/home/applications/appEARFile/MyWebApp/WEB-INF/lib.
But when I run the application, from the Firefox browser I immediately get the following 500 Internal Server Error:
"Servlet error: Error instantiating servlet 'reports'. Servlet class org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet not found in web-application MyWebApp"
(The IE browser just gives me the 500 error without additional elaboration.)
But my spring.jar where that class is located is in the WEB-INF/lib directory. Does anyone have an idea what the solution is--how can I get OC4J to read the spring.jar (or any jar) in that lib folder? (Or is there a way I can configure logging to better pinpoint the problem if that isn't it?)
Thanks,
GlenGlen,
You said:
IE browser just gives me the 500 error without
additional elaborationTry unsetting the "Show friendly HTTP error
messages".
From the "Tools" menu of Microsoft Internet Explorer,
choose "Internet Options".
(You should then see another window entitled
"Internet Properties" displayed.)
Select the "Advanced" tab and search for "Show
friendly HTTP error messages".
Excellent--that worked. Thanks! I was afraid that I would have to be debugging on Firefox exclusively.
I also suggest setting the
"search-local-classes-first" attribute, of the
"web-app-class-loader" element, in your
"orion-web.xml" file to 'true' (if it isn't
already).
That did it. My orion-web.xml file was of the old DTD-based version, I believe that was causing the problem.
The following document:
Oracle® Containers for J2EE
Developers Guide
10g Release 3 (10.1.3)
Part No. B14433-01
has a chapter (3) entitled Utilizing the OC4J
Class Loading Framework which contains a section
entitled Troubleshooting Class Loading-Related
Problems in OC4J.
Thanks for the link, I went through it thoroughly in trying to fix my problem.

WebLogic 8.1 SP6 NoClassDefFoundError for jar in WEB-INF/lib dir (Solaris)
Hi,
I am getting a NoClassDefFoundError for a class that is contained in the WEB-INF/lib folder of my ear/war file.
The strange thing is that this only fails when i try to deploy to production. In UAT (also on Solaris) and in Windows (test) the exact same versions of the deployment / ear file everything seems fine and the class is accessed.
When i added the jar file to the classpath i experienced a "Unsupported major.minor version...." of this class error so i am reluctant to go down that route and anyway would rather consistent deployment between the systems.
I would REALLY appreciate any suggestions as to what might be the cause or what i could try.
Thanks,
DavidThanks for your replies. Sorry if i didn't post enough information for you...
I appear to have found the problem (i managed to recreate in Windows) but have no idea why this is occuring.
In the startManagedWebLogic.cmd file, if i specify "set JAVA_OPTIONS= xxxxxx" then the system will not pick up this one jar file. This appears to be the case even with "set JAVA_OPTIONS=-Dweblogic.attribute=value -Djava.attribute=value" which i assume is a default value as i can't remember having set it... The moment i comment out this set JAVA_OPTIONS line then the system is able to find the jar file.
(Answering your questions:
- The class in question is being referenced from another class also contained in a jar file in the WEB-INF/lib directory
- the WEB-INF is part of the WAR which is contained in the EAR which is deployed on my server)
For now i am ok but know that in a future build i am going to have to use the JAVA_OPTIONS parameter so would really appreciate any suggestions as to why this might be happening.
Thanks,

Weblogic does not look in application WEB-INF/lib
Hi,
I am migrating a Tomcat app to Weblogic 5.1 SP10. I have JAR files in
the WEB-INF/lib directory, but Weblogic doesn't realize they are there
and gives me noClassDefFound errors. Should I be adding lines to the
wlsrc file? If so, can I list a directory or each JAR file separately?
Thanks and frustrated.
Dean
The applets classes are in a jar. The reset of the web applications jar files are in the applications WEB-INF/lib, which is also where the applets jar is. I thought that's how its suppose to be done and that tomcat would load up the classpath with the jar files in the WEB-INF/lib directory.

WEB-INF/lib WEB-INF/classes ClassLoader problem
I have observed that in WL 8.1, a class in a jar deployed in WEB-INF/lib does not have the ability to access a resource deployed in WEB-INF/classes. Is this the intended behavior to not have WEB-INF/lib and WEB-INF/classes in the same ClassLoader? If so, is there a way to configure this behavior to give permission to classes loaded in WEB-INF/lib to the ClassLoader that has WEB-INF/classes?
thanks,
Kenneth ShinAre you really certain that's what's happening? Is it possible the jar file stored in WEB-INF/lib isn't found elsewhere in the CLASSPATH, perhaps by a higher-level classloader? You might consider setting "prefer-web-inf-classes" to true in your weblogic.xml file, to ensure that the jars in WEB-INF/lib are being used instead of from somewhere else.

Jce in web-inf/lib - does not work
Hi all!
I've got the following problem:
I accomplished to form an ear file that contains an ejb jar and a war file. The
ejb jar manifest includes several jars that are part of the ear file. Additionally
the web app needs the following jars: local_policy.jar, jce1_2_1.jar, US_export_policy.jar
When I put these files into the WEB-INF/lib of the webapp or into Manifest's Class-Path
of the ejb.jar I always get the same behaviour:
I can deploy it (yipieeh) but when I run the web app I get the following exception
(uieehh):
java.lang.SecurityException: Cannot authenticate JCE framework java.lang.SecurityException:
The JCE framework has unsigned class files. at com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE.a([DashoPro-V1.2-120198])

at javax.crypto.Support.getImplementation(Support.java:77) at javax.crypto.Support.getImplementation(Support.java:32)
at javax.crypto.SecretKeyFactory.getInstance(SecretKeyFactory.java:42)
Surprisingly it works when I put the jar files into wls6.1SP2's lib directory
respectively to wls's classpath! But what I need is one ear file that contains
everything ...
Please if you know this problem, a workaround or you have only a guess reply to
this message.
Thanks for every serious response,
Chris.Well if you got the jar file to work in the /lib/ dir of the EAR file with
the manifest.mf Class-Path: entry then more power to you. This didn't work
for me for some reason, just let each ejb/war/etc compile to its own dir and
deploy it with all its dependencies included...
Your MalformedURL exception looks different than the security exception you
had earlier. Im guessing that putting the files in a common location in the
ear solved the class loading/security exception problem.
Your malformedURL problem is probably just that, a malformed URL.
Make sure all your associated metadata is pointing to the right place (use
paths of /someApp/somejsp.jsp, etc. dont use ../../somejsp.jsp)
make sure your using the right protocol (dont put one by default). This
would be my guess. Maybe its expecting an SSL call of the form
https://something or t3s://something but I'm not sure
hope this helps,

Your getting that error because different wars run in different class
loaders. It does not trust the other class loaders files unless they're
signed in some way. I think one way you can do this is set up a
security.policy? file for each war that tells what files are allowedI was thinking about that but: How can I do that?
from
where. Here's the way the WLS class loaders work...
WLS system class loader
|
EAR class loader
|
EJB class loader
|
WAR class loader
everything down on the chain there can see up, but not vice versa. You
will
get a class not found
That way, the war files can call ejb's without problems, but EJBs can
not
access war file classes.
One other possible way around your problem is to add a /lib/... directory
to
your EAR and include a Class-Path: section in your manifest to point
to the
JCE files. I think this allows war files to see each others classes.You have to manipulate the EJB-Manifest and put the jar files into the earfile!
At least this is how it worked in my case! But I 've tried that alreadybut then
I get a very similiar Exception: something with can not authenticate: ..MalormedURLException:
no protocol ...
This
didn't work for me when I tried to create a shared library between
EJBs/WARs
but I didnt try to share files between 2 wars so who knows.
Hope this helps some,

JDeveloper 9031 creating WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar
Hello,
I just upgraded to 9.0.3.1 from 9.0.2, and I have a problem where JDeveloper will occasionally create a WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar in my project, causing a conflict with the version of struts I am using (RC2). Is there any way to prevent this? I ended up creating an empty jar and setting it to read-only to stop JDeveloper from placing it's version. Also, I tried disabling struts support, but that seemed to have no effect.
Thanks,
PatrickHi.
Hmm, this was a known issue that should have been fixed in 6.1. Please
open a support case on this.
Thanks,
Michael

If I explode the war file, all is well.
Other posts allude to this being broken (exploded file

I'm using WL6.1SP1.

Jars extracted from WEB-INF/lib in JDev 9.0.3
I have a project for a Web application with Struts and I've built a deployment profile for it. When I deploy to WAR or EAR the generated WAR contains the jars from <HTML Source>/WEB-INF/lib folder as extracted classes in the WEB-INF/classes folder and jars in WEB-INF/lib as well. I want to do something so that the jars will be included just as jars and not extracted.
Thanks for help.I put the jars in the deployment profile in the "WAR File" option from deployment profile descriptor.
When the jars were defined in a separate library entry for my project I put them through "WEB-INF/lib" link under "WAR File" option. Both ways it did the same.
I gave up this and I am using ant but I would like to know if it is possible to do it with deployment descriptor. -
Can we downlod jar from WEB-INF/lib using webstart?
Hi,
Can we down jars which are in WEB-INF/lib directory
using jnlp (webstart)?I got the basic concept of webstart.
I can download jar only if publicly accessible (It
should form a valid URL).Note an important distincion here..
1) It is possible to form valid URL's that
point to WEB-INF/lib.
2) The server should not allow access, to
that URL (any URL pointing inside WEB-INF/lib)
and should return instead the HTTP code that says
'not allowed/barred/forbidden'
There is a big difference between a[b] valid URL,
and a valid URL pointing to a forbidden resource.
But yes, you seem to understand correctly,
that the jar's for web-start cannot be loaded
back to the client, from this directory.
Thanks for your help.You're welcome. -
