In order to have axis2-spring and hibernate to work in our environment we had to put all hibernate files in the axis2/WebContent/Web-Inf/lib directory of axis2 war file. There is a problem with axis2 classloader and Spring and it is documented at the bottom of the following link:
http://ws.apache.org/axis2/1_1/spring.html#263 look for Known issues running Spring inside the AAR Yann Tremblay System Architect (Office: (418) 623-5051 (2275) msn: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Andrew McGhee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: November 28, 2007 11:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Using Spring and Hibernate with Axis2 Hi all, I am writing a web service using Axis2 1.1 and have successfully integrated Spring within the AAR. I am also using Hibernate, but at the moment can't get it to work inside the AAR - I have to explode the AAR. I have had a look at http://ws.apache.org/axis2/1_1_1/spring.html#263 and have tried using 'classpath*:**/my.hbm.xml' and am getting NoClassDefFoundError. Having a look around this place, it seems that having Hibernate work with Spring in an AAR is possible. Has anyone actually achieved this? Are there any additional pointers/tips/tricks anyone could give to assist?
