[m2e-users] Error with EAR in RAD/m2e

[Sander Verhagen <verhagen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi group,


I've been at this before, but still struggling. I'm importing Maven EAR 
projects in RAD 8.5.1, they're error free (Problems view) and worked 
before (pre-Maven). I drag them to server in the Servers view, they're 
started, give the following error:

[8/28/13 0:57:06:078 PDT] 00000016 AbstractEJBRu E   WSVR0068E: Attempt 
to start EnterpriseBean 
MYCOMPANY_EAR#MYCOMPANY_UDHIERARCHY_EJB.jar#UDHierarchy failed with 
exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: 
com.mycompany.create.exceptions.DuplicateKeyException

This DuplicateKeyException is in a project MYCOMPANY_EXCEPTIONS which is 
a runtime dependency of some EJB's that are dependencies of my EAR (such 
as MYCOMPANY_UDHIERARCHY_EJB). MYCOMPANY_EXCEPTIONS.jar is in fact 
packed in to MYCOMPANY_EAR.ear and listed in the MANIFEST.MF (when built 
with Maven on the command-line). It is also referenced in 
org.eclipse.wst.common.component:

<dependent-module archiveName="MYCOMPANY_EXCEPTIONS.jar" deploy-path="/" 
handle="module:/resource/MYCOMPANY_EXCEPTIONS/MYCOMPANY_EXCEPTIONS">
<dependency-type>uses</dependency-type>
</dependent-module>

Following are some POM configurations:
build:
<finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
EAR plugin:
<fileNameMapping>no-version</fileNameMapping>
<generateApplicationXml>true</generateApplicationXml>
<modules>
    <ejbModule>
    <groupId>...</groupId>
    <artifactId>MYCOMPANY_UDHIERARCHY_EJB</artifactId>
    <moduleId>EjbModule_1039818166884</moduleId>
    </ejbModule>

Just let me know if there's other details you want to see.
Your help once again much appreciated!!!
