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
20100318 Michael O'Brien 1.1 Issue #2 - the EJB ProxyFailure issue is resolved by using a 3 part JNDI lookup that includes a prefixed application name
20100319 Michael O'Brien 1.2 With Yiping Zhao and Peter Krogh - Solution for Issue #1 - the signing issue

Status

  • Issue 1: Signing: Override signed %SERVER/common/lib/ejb3-persistence.jar with the lower unsigned %SERVER/jboss-as/server/default/lib/' ejb3-persistence.jar (CE edition), trunk/plugins/javax.persistence_unsigned_for_testing_1.0.0.jar or trunk/jpa/plugins/javax.persistence_2.0.0.v201002051058.jar
  • Currently recommending Option 7
  • Issue 2: EJB ProxyFactory Exception: Use 3-part (app_name/bean_name/remote) or (app_name/remote-bean_name/qualified_bean_name).

Overview

Issue 1: Signed JAR

  • 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 deployment 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.
  • JBoss JIRA JBPAPP-2971 is encountering the same issue with cglib.jar - one of the alternatives for this JIRA are the same as Option 1

Issue 2: EJB ProxyFactory Exception

  • Outside of Eclipse we are not resolving an EJB Stateless Session bean Proxy properly - specifically in 5.0 EAP version of the JBoss server (The 5.1 and 6.0 version of the Community edition are working fine
  • The solution is to use a more strict JBoss specific JNDI format that is required of JBoss EAP but is optional in JBoss CE

Summary:

  • The fix is to follow the more strict JBoss specific JNDI format of EAR_name/EJB_name/remote-qualified_EJB_name instead of EJB_name/remote-qualified_EJB_name

EJB 3.0 Specification details on JNDI lookup of EJB reference

  • The specification only mentions the standard 2 part format
    • 3.6.1 p51
CartHome cartHome = (CartHome)ctx.lookup(“com.acme.example.MySessionBean/cartHome”);

Prerequisites

Data Model

  • The standalone testing models for reproduction are based off of the JBoss server example in the SVN trunk.
  • The formal testing model is the TestRunnerBean in the JPA test suite

EJB JNDI Specification Defaults

  • There are 2 primary ways of defining a stateless session bean and it's remote interface, one involves using defaults, the other has annotation overrides.
  • The way that you define these classes will determine what the JNDI name is when looking up the Proxy from the ProxyFactory on JBoss.
Specifying @Remote @Stateless Session Bean using Defaults
  • The following scenario specifies @Remote on the remote interface and @Stateless on the stateless session bean.
    • This results in the following JNDI name emitted by the server on EAR deploy
@Stateless(name="ApplicationService", mappedName="ApplicationService")
@Remote(ApplicationServiceRemote.class)
public class ApplicationService implements ApplicationServiceRemote  {
	@PersistenceContext(unitName="example", type=PersistenceContextType.TRANSACTION)	
	private EntityManager entityManager;
...
}
 
public class FrontController extends HttpServlet implements Servlet {
    public static final String APPLICATION_SERVICE_JNDI_NAME = "org.eclipse.persistence.example.jpa.server.jboss.EnterpriseEAR/ApplicationService/remote-org.eclipse.persistence.example.jpa.server.business.ApplicationServiceRemote";    
 
    /**
     * Get the SSB ApplicationService bean - using a JNDI context lookup (no EJB injection was used on this servlet)
     * @param viaJNDILookup
     * @return
     */
    public ApplicationServiceRemote getApplicationService(boolean viaJNDILookup) {
        if(null == applicationService && viaJNDILookup) {
            try {
                Hashtable<String, String> env = new Hashtable<String, String>();      
                env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");     
                env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost");      
                env.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces" );     
                InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(env);
                System.out.println("FrontController.getApplicationService() JNDI lookup of " + APPLICATION_SERVICE_JNDI_NAME);
                return (ApplicationServiceRemote) ctx.lookup(APPLICATION_SERVICE_JNDI_NAME);            
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                throw new RuntimeException("Exception looking up session bean: ", e);            }
        } else {
            return applicationService;
        }
    }
...
}
Specifying @Remote @Stateless Session Bean using Overrides
public interface TestRunner { ... }
 
@Stateless(name="TestRunner", mappedName="TestRunner")
@Remote(TestRunner.class)
@TransactionManagement(TransactionManagementType.BEAN)
public class TestRunnerBean implements TestRunner {
    @PersistenceContext
    private EntityManager entityManager;
...
}

Servlet Client for Local Stateless Session Bean

  • The following JNDI context lookup is used to get a reference to the local interface of the stateless session bean deployed in the ejb.jar of the EAR.

SE Client for Remote Stateless Session Bean

  • The following JNDI context lookup will get a standalone SE client a reference to the stateless session bean running in the example EAR.
 

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:

  • place eclipselink.jar into common/lib.
  • replace the signed JBoss EAP 5.0.0 (ejb3-persistence.jar) with the unsigned version from JBoss 5.1.0 (community edition) - both JPA 1.0 versions in common/lib
  • restart server, deploy EAR

Client Configuration 1:

  • Remove the JPA 2.0 API in the stateless session bean and revert persistence.xml from a JPA 2.0 to JPA 1.0 level before running the example project in trunk
  • Client EAR runs out of the box using default HSQL TX datasource - https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=161810
  • Client is a Servlet with JNDI injection via
public static final String APPLICATION_SERVICE_JNDI_NAME = "org.eclipse.persistence.example.jpa.server.jboss.EnterpriseEAR/ApplicationService/local";
...
        Hashtable<String, String> env = new Hashtable<String, String>();      
        env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");     
        env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost");      
        env.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces" );     
        InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(env);
        return (ApplicationServiceLocal) ctx.lookup(APPLICATION_SERVICE_JNDI_NAME);
  • Need to test SE client

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.
  • If the user's application is signed (IE: they are running a signed applet persistence client) - they will need to resign the jar.

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:

  • no eclipselink.jar into common/lib.
Shared Library on EAR/lib
  • Add EAR/lib/eclipselink.jar and EAR/lib/javax.persistence_2.0.0.v201002051058.jar
  • Reference these two jars in the war/src/META-INF/manifest.MF
    • Class-Path: javax.persistence_2.0.0.v201002051058.jar eclipselink.jar
  • Getting CCE because the ejb3.persistence.jar on the server is taking precedence by default over the specification jar shipped with the EAR - IE: you cannot have two javax.persistence jars.
    • java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider cannot be cast to javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceProvider
  • Solution would be a similar override as for WebLogic via
    <wls:prefer-application-packages>

Client Configuration 3:

  • place eclipselink.jar and the jpa 1.0/2.0 specification jar into EAR/lib.
  • 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:

Results 5:

Option 6: ship eclipselink and javax.persistence jar only in EAR - infeasible

Server Configuration 6:

  • Remove ejb3-persistence.jar from common/lib on the server.

Client Configuration 6:

  • add javax.persistence and eclipselink.jar to the EAR/lib directory.

Results 6:

  • The JBoss server will not start because the web apps internal to the server require the presence of ejb3-persistence at the global server classpath level.

Option 7: Override common/lib with default/lib for both eclipselink and javax.persistence jars

Server Configuration 7:

  • keep the signed ejb3-persistence.jar from common/lib on the server in place.
  • copy eclipselink.jar to server/default/lib
  • copy javax.persistence spec jar to server/default/lib

Client Configuration 7:

  • no changes

Results 7:

  • EntityManager and EntityManagerFactory injection on the remote stateless session bean is working fine.
  • The JPA war applications that start with the JBoss server deploy fine
  • Weaving is unaffected as currently only static weaving is avaible on JBoss
