Ok, I solved it myself. I was running Maven over JDK 5, and that includes JMX classes, obviously with different serialVersionUID than those from weblogic-8.1.jar.
I installed JDK 1.4.2 (just one month before its end of life J ), set JAVA_HOME for Maven to point at it, and now it works. Cheers, *jordi De: Buj Arís, Jordi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviat: martes, 23 de septiembre de 2008 14:12 Per a: user@mojo.codehaus.org Tema: [mojo-user] Deploy to WebLogic 8.1 I can't get the weblogic maven plugin to work with my 8.1 SP4 server. I'm constantly getting an InvalidClassException when trying to contact the server. It looks like I have javax.management classes in my classpath that don't match the ones used by the server. I installed the weblogic and webservices jars in my local repository as required by the documentation, and configured my POM to grab the 2.8.0 plugin version Is there anything else I should take into account?
