Question

My main problem is that I want to use myfaces jsf implementation and because of that, I have to use delegate=false in glassfish-web.xml. This ends up in loading classes from my application first and then look at the server libraries.

When I use hibernate, I have the problem with javassist that the version 3.14.0-GA bundled with osgi-weld and the 3.14.0-GA I defined in my pom.xml are different. I also tried to remove the entry from my pom.xml (excluded all transitive dependencies to javassist) but it won’t work. The exception is a bit strange.

SCHWERWIEGEND: Exception while loading the app : org.jboss.weldx.transaction.org$jboss$weld$bean-WEB-INF$lib$seam-international-3$0$0$Final-Built-in-UserTransaction_$$_WeldProxy cannot be cast to javassist.util.proxy.ProxyObject

How can I solve this problem?

Answer 1

just put javassist-3.14.0-GA.jar in GLASSFISH_HOME\domains\domain1\lib and dont include it in your application classpath, if you use maven mark the dependency as provided

<dependency>
     <groupId>org.javassist</groupId>
     <artifactId>javassist</artifactId>
     <version>3.14.0-GA</version>
     <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
