Deployment Failed Spring 3.1 on Weblogic Server 10.3.4

Question

I've been developing maven java spring 3.1 program and deploy it on jetty. It ran successfully on jetty. And now I need to deploy it on weblogic 10.3.4 but I always get this BeanDefinitionParserDelegate error. Is there anything (like library or class) I should add to weblogic environment to get it work?

Here are my error stack trace:

Anyone can help?

Answer 1

Have you tried to use the prefer-web-inf-classes element? In WEB-INF/weblogic.xml (next to web.xml)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<weblogic-web-app
 xmlns="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90 
http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90/weblogic- web-app.xsd">
<container-descriptor>
    <prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
 </container-descriptor>
</weblogic-web-app>

See: Weblogic 10.3.1.0 is using com.bea.core.apache.commons.net_1.0.0.0_1-4-1.jar... I want to use commons-net-2.0.jar from my code

Answer 2

Your logs show that you have Spring 2.0.3 on your classpath, you need to have atleast Spring 3.0.6 to work with Spring Security 3.1.x. So try cleaning your classpath or check if the jar is being included from other projects.
