Question

I am working on a J2EE application, to deploy I am using a build.xml (which is used by all team members) to create ear & publish, after the BUILD SUCCESSFUL message appears in Eclipse, I start Weblogic 10.3.2 but weblogic doesn’t start properly and shows the following error message in the console:

SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings.
SLF4J: Found binding in [zip:C:/APP1/P2/2.0.0/Code/tools/bea_10.3.2/user_projects

(If I launch the application I get Error 404–Not Found)

The strange thing is that the problem is only with my machine whereas other team members are able to successfully deploy and start weblogic. I am using the same code from CVS.

It may be an issue with the environment (like default JRE etc..)

Any ideas ? What could be the problem

Windows XP / Weblogic 10.3.2
java -version
java version "1.6.0_19"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_19-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.2-b04, mixed mode, sharing)

Answer 1

Similar issue here (bottom of the chain) suggests keeping only slf4j-api-1.5.x.jar and slf4f-simple-1.5.x.jar in your WEB-INF/lib and removing any other slf4j jars from there?
