Okay, this has me stumped. I have a webapp project in RAD running on websphere that uses a project reference to a lib project that contains all the model code including my hibernate logic. The Junit test of the lib directory works fine. A junit test in the webapp project, but running outside the J2EE container works fine. However, once we are running in the J2EE container, the same code crashes the JVM.

Note that not ALL code does this. An update works fine. However a quartz process dies on sessions.createQuery, and a web service call dies on createQuery. When I say ‘dies’ I mean the entire JVM shuts down and spews the following dump into the console:

Unhandled exception
Type=Unhandled trap vmState=0x00040000

----------- Stack Backtrace -----------

The queries appear to be correct (as I said, they work outside the j2ee container). If it helps, here is one of them:

Query sql = s.createQuery("from Type t where t.typeCode=? and t.applicationCode=? ");

We’ve never seen this before, and aren’t getting alot of Goggle traction. We’re on Windows 7, RAD 8, WAS 7.0.0.17, Hibernate 4.1.9, DB2 XA data source, and not that I think it matters, but we’ve conigured org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager as our transaction manager.

Any ideas?

    Resolved. Here’s the deal – this would only happen in debug mode. In Run mode, we actually got a NoClassDefError on an antlr class. We had failed to move antler into web-inf/lib, but it WAS in the lib project’s dependencies which is why Junit ran. Once copied over this issue went away. I guess antlr is a dependency of Hibernate.

    The great mystery here is why the debugger melted the JVM instead of giving an exception that would give us a chance to resolve the issue, but we are past our problem.
