Summary: org.apache.commons.codec filtered by the classloader but not provided by TomEE WebProfile Key: TOMEE-2183 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-2183 Project: TomEE Issue Type: Bug Components: TomEE Core Server Affects Versions: 7.0.4 Reporter: Violeta Georgieva Hi, I have an EAR file with "lib" folder that contains "commons-codec" and a WAR file that uses the libraries located in the "lib" folder. I do not have issues with the other libraries in that folder but with "commons-codec" I receive the exception below. I'm using TomEE 7.0.4 WebProfile and in that distribution there is no "commons-codec" provided by TomEE itself because of this I'm providing it with the EAR file. While debugging I saw that "org.apache.commons.codec" is intentionally filtered by the classloader [https://github.com/apache/tomee/blob/master/container/openejb-core/src/main/java/org/apache/openejb/util/classloader/URLClassLoaderFirst.java#L305] How it is supposed to provide this library so that my application can use it? Thanks, Violeta {code} java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase.loadClass(WebappClassLoaderBase.java:1285) org.apache.tomee.catalina.TomEEWebappClassLoader.loadClass(TomEEWebappClassLoader.java:208) org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase.loadClass(WebappClassLoaderBase.java:1119) \{code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
