Hi,

I followed the tutorial here to create a stardust web dynamic project and it all works fine.

I converted the project to a Maven project using eclipse m2e plugin and after that the project fails to build. It turns out that stardust standard libraries are not included anymore in the project.

Could you please help and assist to convert the stardust eclipse dynamic web project to a maven project?

Thanks

Hi Melissa,

the easiest way to work with a Stardust maven WAR project on Eclipse WTP is to use the maven Stardust Spring WAR archetype as a basis.
1. generate the maven project using the archetype
2. run maven package to complete all downloads
3. use "import existing maven project" in Eclipse
4. make sure the correct maven profile is enabled in the resulting Eclipse maven project (if applicable)
5. add dependencies on other eclipse (maven) projects as needed to includ custom jars
6. Add maven project to regular WTP server

Does that work for you?

Best regards

Rob

Thanks Rob.

I have built this maven archetype before and I noticed that the Rules Management Perspective is missing. So we have to stick with the eclipse war export.

Is there a way to include Rules Management Perspective in this archetype?

Melissa,

please check if adding the dependency

<groupId>org.eclipse.stardust.ui.web</groupId>
<artifactId>stardust-rules-manager</artifactId>
<version>2.0.1</version>

to your archetype result does the trick.

Best regards

Rob

Hi Rob,

Thank you. The project now has the rules management perspective.

Regards,

Melissa

Hi,

I have written the steps I did to build the stardust portal using maven archetype and deploy it to a server.

Generate a new project using mvn archetype:

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.eclipse.stardust.deploy.jee.archetypes -DarchetypeArtifactId=tc7-ipp-portal-war -DarchetypeVersion=2.0.1 -DgroupId=org.eclipse.stardust.test -DartifactId=stardust-portal-war -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT -DarchetypeRepository=http://download.eclipse.org/stardust/maven/releases

Go your project directory and build your project.

mvn clean package

Import project to eclipse.

If you want to replace the location of the jackrabbit repository (default location: c:/tmp/repository) modify the jackrabbit config file (ipp-portal/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/config/ipp/spring/jackrabbit-jcr-context.xml)

<bean id="carnotJackrabbitRepository" class="org.eclipse.stardust.vfs.jcr.spring.JackrabbitRepositoryStartupBean">
      <property name="jndiName" value="jcr/ContentRepository" />
      <property name="repositoryConfig" value="/WEB-INF/jackrabbit/repository.xml" />
	  <property name="repositoryHome" value="<new jackrabbit repository>" />
   </bean>

Deploy to server and check if the project starts successfully.

However, if you ran into this runtime error during server start up :

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientXADataSource
	at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1702)
	at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1547)
	at org.springframework.util.ClassUtils.forName(ClassUtils.java:260)
	at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanDefinition.resolveBeanClass(AbstractBeanDefinition.java:416)
	at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory.doResolveBeanClass(AbstractBeanFactory.java:1296)
	at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory.resolveBeanClass(AbstractBeanFactory.java:1267)
	... 42 more

In ipp-portal/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/config/ipp/spring/carnot-spring-ds-context.xml
Replace

<bean id="carnotXaAuditTrailDataSourceLocalURL" class="org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientXADataSource" lazy-init="true">
      <property name="serverName" value="localhost" />
      <property name="portNumber" value="1527" />
      <property name="databaseName" value="ipp" />
      <property name="user" value="carnot" />
      <property name="password" value="ag" />
   </bean>

with

<bean id="carnotXaAuditTrailDataSourceLocalURL" class="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedXADataSource">
   <property name="databaseName" value="carnot" />
   <property name="user" value="carnot" />
   <property name="password" value="ag" />
</bean>

If you want to include other dependecies just add it to the pom.xml of your project. Hope this helps.
