Log4J - cannot find symbol - method trace(String)

2014-04-30 Thread Dušan Rychnovský
Hi everyone,

I have the following dependency in my project's POM:

...
dependency
groupIdlog4j/groupId
artifactIdlog4j/artifactId
version1.2.17/version
/dependency
...

The artifact is downloaded to my local repository, but, during the compile
phase, the following error is emitted and the build process is aborted:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:2.5.1:compile
(default-compile) on project dbtoixattrdt: Compilation failure: Compilation
failure:
[ERROR]
d:\prace\dbtoixattrdt\DBToIXATTRDT-TRUNK\src\main\java\dbtoixattrdt\TraceLogAspect.java:[19,8]
error: cannot find symbol
[ERROR] symbol:   method trace(String)
[ERROR] location: variable logger of type Logger

This error message does not make much sense, as the trace method should be
available on the Logger class in Log4J version 1.2.17.

What can be wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Dušan

You can use the dependency:tree[1] goal to view a tree of your
dependencies to see if the correct version of Log4J is being included
in the compiler classpath.

Thank you both for your help. Unfortunatelly, neither seems to be the case.

 * dependency:tree confirmed that version 1.2.17 is beeing used indeed
(log4j:log4j:jar:1.2.17:compile),
 * I have verified that the import statement is correct (import

Could you check your checksum on the log4j jar file? Maybe there is
some corruption in your repository.

Are you using Eclipse? What does the editor say about the error? Quick fix?

If you can download Eclipse/STS which includes Maven support and load up 
your project, you will find the error pretty quickly.

And for another thought: maybe of your other dependencies include the

Check with maven copy dependencies and a grep over the contents of all

Re: Log4J - cannot find symbol - method trace(String)

2014-04-30 Thread Dušan Rychnovský
Thank you all, I have finally managed to find the root of the problem.
Nick's warning about the possibility of a different Log4J version as a
transitive dependency got me thinking and I tried disabling the
dependencies, one at a time, to see what would happen. The errors
disappeared after disabling a custom 3rd party library that I have
installed to my local repository manually and after inspecting its contents
it turned out that there is an older Log4J version packed inside the JAR
along with the rest of the library.

Thank you once more for all your quick responses,

 This will let you use Maven to build the components and use the maven

Have you tried making the red5 scope provided.
What does this do to your build?
Does it get eliminate the red5 classes from your jar so that it only

To make life simpler, remove all code from the war project and put it 
into a separate project that makes a jar that the war depends on.
This will make it clearer when you need red5 to compile your code and 
when you need it to build a deployable war.

It will have scope provided as a dependency in your jar project.

Finding unused dependencies

Hi Users,

I wonder whether there's an easy way to find unused dependencies for a

of them but I wonder whether there's an easy way rather manually doing it.

I there a way to get a warning about unused dependency in a pom file for a
given module.

Netbeans maven project with invalid POM/classpath problem

2014-04-30 Thread Mark

Hi ,

I am new to Maven and Glassfish (and pretty new to Java and Netbeans!) 
and am struggling to build a JPA based 'injection' project that I want 
to run as an application client (using Glassfish appclient) to inject 
rows from an Oracle db table into a JMS queue.


Specifically the problem is:

When I build the 'injection' project' I get an invalid pom message but 
it builds.


The POM for com.oracle:ojdbc6:jar:11.2.0 is invalid, transitive 
dependencies (if any) will not be available, enable debug logging for 
more details


Running it with appclient however it fails as I get the following error:

org.eclipse.persistence.DatabaseException. Exception description: 
Configuration error message - Class [oracle.jdbc.Oracle driver] not found.


Browsing the local Maven repository using Netbeans I find the following 
 if I right-click on the ojdbc 11.2.0 jar and select 'View Details'

It says this could be because :
- I'm offline (but I'm not)
- The repository content is wrong - no reason to suppose it is
- The project or dependences cannot be resolved for the given set of 
repositories - no reason to suppose this either - 'Find Usages' seems to 
give the right answer
- bug in the Maven or Netbeans codebase -? Hence posting to Netbeans 
and Maven forums



I have successfully compiled and run an early version that just loads 
text to JMS so have got appclient to run successfully. I now want to use 
JPA to read the db. I have a separate Maven 'persistence' project that 
defines the persistence entities and have used this successfuly with 
another 'generation' project that generates the database table content 
in the first place.
When I build the persistence project I get the same 'Invalid POM' 
message but it still works fine when included as a compile-time 
dependency in the 'generation' project.



The persistence project has the following POM:
---
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
project xmlns=http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0; 
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;

-
Note: cepdemopersistence-1.1-SNAPSHOT dependency is not used in any code 
- don't know how it got there!


The 'injection' project has the following POM:

Have you opened that file in a text editor?
It looks like malformed xml to me.

How did you install the ojdbc jars?
These need to be manually installed since they require you to agree to the OTN
License Agreement.

 in the jar or war since you are going to sneak it into the package
 without
 Maven noticing.

 Pretty standard problem. We make a lot of aggregation jars that are used
 in the same way.
 http://blog.artifact-software.com/tech/?p=121 describes how we handle a
 similar need to produce skinny wars that use libraries in Tomcar/shared
 or
 tomcat/lib to avoid copies of the same code in multiple jars. Our LMS
 project has over 80 Maven projects that produce a variety of jars and
 wars.
 Many of these share the use of large libraries such as CXF, Spring and
 Apache commons that can be shared through Tomcat's classloader rather
 than
 duplicated in each war.

 There are some other notes about Maven on our blog that you might find
 interesting.

 I would prefer an installer to get the shared libraries into tomcat/lib
 but that is another issue.

  Here is the structure:

 Openmeetings Util project has compile time dependency Red5 server
 Almost all other projects are dependent on Openmeetings Util and
 Red5
 server (compile time)

 But When I'm creating war file in Openmeetings Web project I need to
 remove Red5 server and all it dependencies from the WEB-INF/lib
 folder
 since all these jar files will be placed into tomcat/lib folder.

 Where will the transitive dependencies come from?
 There may be ways to do what you want.

   Additional question:

 Is it possible to exclude compile time dependency (with all
 transitive
 sub-dependencies)
 form war libraries? (without listing libraries one by one)

 Hello Ron,

  I'll take a look at izPack as an alternative to assembly plugin
 (which
 seems to be able to create artifact similar to the current being
 created
 by
 ant)

 Currently I'm trying to build all jars/war/swf files need to be
 packed
 (by
 assembly plugin or izPack)

 Here is the stripped output of my current maven build:
 http://pastebin.com/XvbA9yGM
 As you can see, after normal build all projects are being forked:

   1. [INFO]
   
   2. [INFO] Forking Openmeetings Util 3.1.0-SNAPSHOT
   3. [INFO]
   
   4.


 etc.

 if I'm building single project using:
 mvn clean install -pl openmeetings-web -am
 I see no forking

 Will appreciate any help on this

Can you describe the forking Maven problem in more detail.
