"ClassCastException when initializing CXFServlet" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/546708#546708 -------------------------------------------------------------- Generally speaking, embedding the cxf libs in your webapp when using the jbossws-cxf stack is likely to give you major headaches with classloading isolation requirements. You'd better leverage the CXF that already comes from the AS. Btw, you can install jbossws-cxf 3.3.0 (beware of JBWS-3048) or jbossws-cxf-3.3.1 (being released today or tomorrow), which come with more recent Apache CXF versions (2.2.8 / 2.2.9). > Kyle Bober wrote: > > Hello all, > I am running into the same issue as posted above.

The CXFServlet does something like this around line 96: Object ctxObject = svCtx.getAttribute("org.springframework.web.context.WebApplicationContext.ROOT"); if (ctxObject instanceof ApplicationContext) { ctx = (ApplicationContext) ctxObject; } else if (ctxObject != null) { // it should be a runtime exception Exception ex = (Exception) ctxObject; // <-- line 96 throw new ServletException(ex); } so I *think* the VFS version of Spring application context (Snowdrop?) is not seen as an ApplicationContext, causing in the else branch of the if being executed and hence the error you see. You'd probably need to better debug what's happening there, and depending on that you might find a workaround for your usecase. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/546708#546708] Start a new discussion in JBoss Web Services CXF at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&containerType=14&container=2046]
