Geronimo 2.1 and Seam

[Burt Prior]

Hi Geronimo Team,

 

I hope I'm directing this question correctly.

 

First, thank you all for your excellent work on Geronimo 2.1.  Our team has standardized on Geronimo at our large enterprise, and we think its the best app server in the industry.

 

We are in current development of an JSF/EJB3/OpenJPA application, and we would very much like to use Seam (2).

 

For the past few days we have been trying (without much luck) to configure Geronimo to work with Seam and Hibernate; we would prefer OpenJPA as the persistence provider, but it appears impossible to use with Seam.

 

I've tried to work thru: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxSAMPLES/running-jboss-seam-200ga-on-geronimo-21.html but the maven project to download the Hibernate Transaction Manager appears not to work, and we are finding the instructions a bit hard to follow. (we don't use Maven, we are Subversion users)

$ mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=org.apache.geronimo.hibernate -DartifactId=geronimo-hibernate-transaction-manager-lookup
 
Question 1:
 
Is there a Geronimo 2.1 build that already includes everything needed to run Seam 2 or Hibernate that I can download, so we do not have to manually patch it?
 
Question 2:
 
Is there any advice/guidance you can give my team regarding setting up Geronimo 2.1 to use Seam 2?  We would very much like integrate Seam into Geronimo for our long term application development.
 
Thanks for your time and great work,

I have updated the directions to correspond to the released Geronimo 2.1
version.  But, I have not made it through testing all of the directions
after creating the transaction manager jar.

For your convenience, here is a link to the jar that I built:
http://people.apache.org/~jaydm/hibernate/geronimo-hibernate-transaction-manager-lookup-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Not that I am aware of.

I think that after the tutorial has been re-tested for the released
Geronimo 2.1 version - that tutorial should be all you need to set up
Geronimo for Seam.

Hi Jay,

Thanks very much for the jar file.  That helped a great deal.

I'm stuck...

I am now *almost* able to deploy the Seam 'booking' example.  I'm having real problems with the geronimo deployment plan (The Plan) listed in the article.

The deployment plan uses the Derby database.  I'm using Oracle.  I've successfully installed the Oracle jar in the respository and a configured a (thin driver) database pool that jar.

I now successfully build the app, but when I try to deploy.bat from the command line using the "The Plan", I get errors such as...

"Exception in Thread.. java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jdbc/pool/OracleDataSource"

This class is in the oracle jar, but I think the geronimo deployment plan is incorrect.

Can you give me some pointers/examples of setting up a deployment plan to use hibernate and oracle?

Thanks,
.Burt

Hi,

Add Oracle Thin driver as a dependency to the app in the plan and
rerun the deployment. I think you need something like:

    <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.hibernate.transaction</groupId>
        <artifactId>geronimo-hibernate-transaction-manager-lookup</artifactId>
        <type>jar</type>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>com.oracle.thindriver</groupId>
        <artifactId>oracle-thin-driver</artifactId>
        <type>jar</type>
      </dependency>
    </dependencies>

Note the part for the oracle thin driver. Update it with correct data
and give it a go.

When in trouble, show the plan so it's easier to help you.

Hi Jacek,

Thanks very much for the reply.  Our team is really trying to make Hibernate/Seam work on Geronimo 2.1, and we are stuck.  As mentioned,  we have the standard Oracle thin drivers in the repository, and an Oracle db pool correctly set up; additionally we think the Geronimo Transaction Manager is installed correctly, as well as hibernate-entitymanager.jar patched to avoid the NPE.

From our console repository viewer:

...
<dependency>
 <groupId>oracle</groupId>
 <artifactId>jdbc</artifactId>
 <version>10.2</version>
 <type>jar</type>
</dependency>
...

...
<dependency>
 <groupId>console.dbpool</groupId>
 <artifactId>ElvisPool</artifactId>
 <version>1.0</version>
 <type>rar</type>
</dependency>
...

...
<dependency>
 <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.hibernate</groupId>
 <artifactId>geronimo-hibernate-transaction-manager-lookup</artifactId>
 <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
 <type>jar</type>
</dependency>
...

We are diligently following the Geronimo/Hibernate and Geronimo/Seam examples, but we still have issues.

Please note that we have clean builds ('ant clean archive') as you listed in the Geronimo/Seam doc.
So essentially, we think we have everything working until we get to "The Plan" section.  The errors we see are when we try to 'deploy'.

Here is "The Plan" as we modified it, including your latest suggestion on the dependency:  (we think 90% of it is correct)

Hi,

Add Oracle Thin driver as a dependency to the app in the plan and
rerun the deployment. I think you need something like:

    <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.hibernate.transaction</groupId>
        <artifactId>geronimo-hibernate-transaction-manager-lookup</artifactId>
        <type>jar</type>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>com.oracle.thindriver</groupId>
        <artifactId>oracle-thin-driver</artifactId>
        <type>jar</type>
      </dependency>
    </dependencies>

Note the part for the oracle thin driver. Update it with correct data
and give it a go.

When in trouble, show the plan so it's easier to help you.

Jacek

Hi,

I can't work on it much now, but perhaps we could work it out together
- me thinking aloud and you trying it out. Deal?

Do you have any idea what "bookingDatabase 91456273" came from? I'll
have to ask Dave B (openejb) about the exact error message's origins.
I think openejb know nothing about oracle without some configuration
changes and it might be working with hsql because openejb works with
it by default. Can't really figure it out right now. Did you make any
changes in the example? I vaguely remember bookingDatabase PU, but
nothing springs to my mind about the numbers.

I haven't worked with this for a while.... two things jump out at me

1. The original error is that the bookingDatabase PU can't start.  
Possibly if you looked in the server log there would be more infomation.

2. You appear to have the same classes listed in the bookingDatabase  
PU and the cmp 2.1 PU.  I think this is going to lead to trouble.  
The cmp 2.1 PU shouldn't really even be there unless you have actual  
ejb 2.1 entity beans and if you do I would rely on the cmp engine to  
fill in the persistence.xml for it itself.

While I used to think the <ext-module> was a neat trick I have  
started thinking it mostly causes confusion and think that if you  
deploy the pool separately and have a dependency on the deployed pool  
it's clearer what is going on.  If you deploy everything as geronimo  
plugins you also get the ability to swap databases.

hope this helps
