Error deploying to Tomcat 8.5 on Windows Server #157

Open ghost opened 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

So when we deployed the application we got the following error starting up tomcat:

SEVERE: Unable to process Jar entry [module-info.class] from Jar [file:/C:/Users/dev/eclipse-workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp0/wtpwebapps/Admin/WEB-INF/lib/javax.json-api-1.1.3.jar] for annotations org.apache.tomcat.util.bcel.classfile.ClassFormatException: Invalid byte tag in constant pool: 19 at org.apache.tomcat.util.bcel.classfile.Constant.readConstant(Constant.java:97) at org.apache.tomcat.util.bcel.classfile.ConstantPool.(ConstantPool.java:54) at org.apache.tomcat.util.bcel.classfile.ClassParser.readConstantPool(ClassParser.java:174) at org.apache.tomcat.util.bcel.classfile.ClassParser.parse(ClassParser.java:83)

We removed the javax.json-api-1.1.3 reference and it went away but now we are getting this error

When looking at that line it seems the injection isn't working and the following attribute is null.

@Inject
AdminConfig adminConfig;

Hi, do you see the same error when deploying admin-starter-tomcat?

I'm going to download that one and see if i get the same issue.

After doing some research seems we have to move to TomEE. We eventually want to go to a cloud environment but we are not ready at the moment. I will close this as it has nothing to do with the showcase app and everything to do with Tomcat 8.5

Hi, I'm pretty sure It should run on Tomcat. I've test with Tomcat 8 and 9. Also made a vídeo of deploying on Tomcat 9: https://youtu.be/1h7yMYgCgdE
