Question

I am trying to deploy a Rails 3 application on Tomcat 6.0.24. The JRuby version is 1.6.2 (ruby-1.8.7-p330) and Warbler is 1.3.0. I use bundler to handle the gem dependencies.

Checked the WEB-INF/lib folder and the following jars are present:

• jruby-rack-1.0.9.jar
• jruby-core-1.6.2.jar
• jruby-stdlib-1.6.2.jar

But, however after the server starts, hitting the application results in the following exception:

javax.servlet.ServletException: Filter execution threw an exception

Does that ring any bells?

[Answer Updated]: The issue was with the java implementation on the server. It was Open JDK. I switched it over to Sun Java 1.6.0_26 and everything started working 🙂
