I’m new to MyEclipse and having a basic problem getting started. I’ve done the following:

– installed MyEclipse 7.1 (full version)
– installed Weblogic 10.3
– created a Web project Foo (with Maven support)
– added JSF, IceFaces, and IceFace Facelets capabilites
– created an Enterprise Application Project enterprise-Foo that includes Foo as a module
– deployed enterprise-Foo to the Weblogic server

Unfortunately, any pages I make are not loading because the proper jar files are not there (I’m getting a bunch of NoClassDefFound errors on the server console).

I think the problem I’m having is that the jars listed under the “Maven Dependencies” directory are not being shown under the WEB-INF\lib directory — it’s empty. Why is it empty? shouldn’t that have the same list of jar files (JSF/Icesfaces, etc)? What did I do wrong?

Thanks,
John

Hi,
Can you zip up your project by going to File > Export > Archive and send it over to me so that I can replicate this issue at my end. Also, can you list the steps I need to follow to replicate this issue.

Upon further investigation, this is the problem I’m seeing:

https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/issues-with-myeclipse-project-deployer-for-weblogic/&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=

In particular, I’m seeing this error:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet
at weblogic.utils.classloaders.GenericClassLoader.findLocalClass(GenericClassLoader.java:283)
at weblogic.utils.classloaders.GenericClassLoader.findClass(GenericClassLoader.java:256)
at weblogic.utils.classloaders.ChangeAwareClassLoader.findClass(ChangeAwareClassLoader.java:54)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:251)

Strange thing is that I can physically see the jsf-api-1.2_04.jar file in the deployed application.

Was there a resolution for this problem?

John,
I looks like the jar is being deployed but the project is not picking up the jars. Thats weird.

You should cross post this query on the weblogic forum. I’ll check with my dev team if they have any clues for you.

I have a zip/recipe that demonstrates the problem — where do I send it?

One thing I noticed is that in the pom.xml, about 5 libraries (including javax.faces) have the following tag:

<scope>provided</scope>

while others do not. If I *remove* these lines, I can successfully deploy in a packaged mode, but not in an exploded mode (which is necessary for development). With these lines, it doesn’t work in either mode.

Perhaps the assumption is that it will use the Weblogic shared libraries for these packages? However, that doesn’t seem to be happening. Are there special circumstances that I’m not seeing where these shared libraries are seen or not seen?

Thanks,
John

John,
I’ll forward the project to the dev team. I’ll let you know when I get back an update from them.
