Classloading issue implementing REST client

0
votes

I have a web application running on Tomcat 8 (Windows 10, JRE 1.8.0_111) that implements a REST client for communication with a 3rd part REST service (ADLNET xAPI LRS)

When I recently deployed that WAR file on a different server (CentOS, Tomcat 8, Java 1.8.0.11) the application gives a ClassNotFound exception:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.glassfish.hk2.utilities.reflection.Logger

I have the following JARs in the WEB-INF/lib folder

*jxapi-1.0.3.jar (provided by the ADLNET xAPI project) *hk2-api-2.4.0.jar *cxf-bundle-jaxrs-2.7.18.jar *jaxrs-ri-2.25.1.jar *jersey-guava-2.25.1.jar

On running the application with "-verbose:class" I found that the class loading order is different in the two cases. In the error situation, the 'cxf-bundle-jaxrs-2.7.18.jar' is not being used at all.

catalina.out (OK case)

What could be going wrong here?

may be jar file in WEB-INF is corrupted, so update dependencies with new version and add new dependency :-

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.glassfish.hk2</groupId>
    <artifactId>hk2-utils</artifactId>
    <version>2.5.0-b35</version>
</dependency>

and update the project and export WAR file.
