Bug Analysis Document: 305331: EclipseLink deployment on JBoss EAP 5.0.0 GA using signed JPA 1.0 ejb3-persistence.jar

Document History

Date Author Version Description & Notes
20100312 Michael O'Brien 1.0 Initial investigation of solution scenarios

Status

  • In progress 20100311 for options 3,4 and 5.

Overview

  • The EAP 5.0.0 GA version of the JBoss Application Server ships with signed library jars. This presents a problem for users of EclipseLink that place our unsigned implementation jar eclipselink.jar beside the JPA 1.0 javax specification jar - ejb3-persistence.jar in the common/lib library folder off the server. On deploymehnt in EAP 5.0.0 GA we receive a Security Exception because of the difference in security levels.
  • The Community Edition of JBoss 5.1.0 and 6.0.0 M1 do not have these issues because their library jars are unsigned.
  • This document details several possible solutions to this signed jar issue and recommends the best approach.

Reproduction

Results: unsigned/signed conflict SecurityException - expected

Prerequisites

Data Model

Use Case 1: Container managed Persistence Unit injected on a Stateless Session Bean invoked via a Servlet client

  • This use case is valid for options 1, 2, 5

Use Case 2: Application managed Persistence Unit injected on Servlet client

  • This use case is valid for options 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

StackTrace

Logs

Analysis

Option 1: Replace signed ejb3-persistence.jar with an unsigned version from JBoss 5.1.0 community edition - valid

Server Configuration 1:

  • replace 5.0.0 (ejb3-persistence.jar) with version from 5.1.0 (community edition) - both JPA 1.0 versions in common/lib
  • restart server, deploy EAR

Client Configuration 1:

Results 1:

  • JPA 1.0 application runs fine
12:01:41,308 INFO  [STDOUT] [EL Finest]: 2010-03-11 12:01:41.308--UnitOfWork(11747982)--Thread(Thread[http-127.0.0.1-8080-1,5,jboss])--Register the existing object org.eclipse.persistence.example.jpa.server.business.Cell@3324876( id: 2 state: null left: null right: null parent: HashSet@34627602 references: HashSet@34627602)

Option 2: Ship signed eclipselink.jar - invalid

  • This option has us sign our eclipselink.jar with jarsigner - however we do not have access to the private keys used to sign the JBoss libraries so this is currently not feasible.

Server Configuration 2:

Client Configuration 2:

Results 2:

Option 3: Global Shared Library - Server level scope - verifying

  • In this option we create a global shared library on the server or in a jar-only EAR that is accessible to all server applications.
  • This shared library must override the common/lib/ejb3-persistence.jar.

Server Configuration 3:

Client Configuration 3:

  • One of
    • jboss-app.xml
    • EAR/lib
    • application.xml

Results 3:

Option 4: Application Shared Library - Local EAR level scope - verifying

Server Configuration 4:

Client Configuration 4:

Results 4:

Option 5: Generate an eclipselink jar with the JPA 2.0 dependencies removed

Server Configuration 5:

Client Configuration 5:
