Convention plugin and jar scanning failing on Websphere
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: WW-2999
URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2999
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Plugin - Convention
Affects Versions: 2.1.6
Environment: Websphere 6.1
Reporter: Denis Cabasson
Priority: Critical
Hi,
I am upgrading an existing project from struts 2.0.14 to 2.1.6. We are using
the zero configuration approach, and the classpath scanning ability.
The application is running on Websphere 6.1, and I had a lot of trouble having
it work. My 2 major issues were :
* Classes of the current project not being scanned : This url file:/C:/Program
Files/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv02/installedApps/F6FMSWASTSTNode02Cell/fms-ear.ear/fms-web.war/WEB-INF/classes/
was originally excluded by the filters in the convention plugin. I'll let you
know exactly which one did that
* We had some action classes in a dependency jar, and it didn't get included
because of the wsjar protocol. See http://jira.opensymphony.com/browse/XW-669
for more documentation on this protocol and its inclusion in Xwork. The url
look like :
wsjar:file:/C:/Program
Files/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv02/installedApps/F6FMSWASTSTNode02Cell/fms-ear.ear/fms-web.war/WEB-INF/lib/axis-1.4.jar!/
And are not processed by com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.finder.ClassFinder.
I'll add more detail as I dig into this and let you know how I worked around it
(except by moving to a real application server.... )
