spring-guides / gs-convert-jar-to-war Goto Github PK

There is some code beginning with:

configurations {
providedRuntime
}

Outside of that block, it goes on:

dependencies { … providedRuntime("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-tomcat") … } ---

Presumably this should be one code block.

Trying the 'complete' example in JBoss AS 7.2 (RedHat EAP 6.1). Unfortunately, it doesn't work straight out of the box.

The "What you'll need" section states you can need "Gradle 1.11+ or Maven 3.0+". However, the "Create a WAR file" section - the crux of the guide - only describes steps for Gradle.

Would it be possible to either make it clear this is a Gradle-only guide, or provide a solution for Maven users?

A relic from when this was written with markdown

Current code does not build correctly with the latest SpringBootServletInitializer for Spring 4.0.0.RC1.

configure method needs to be updated to

@OverRide
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(
SpringApplicationBuilder application) {

    application.sources(Application.class);
    return super.configure(application);
}

According to your readme in STS I should be able to:
"Drag the entire application's root folder down to the server instance."
and
"Click the Start button to start the app."

This is not working. Dragging and dropping is not picking up my application.

ps. only if you use the gradle version of the project

If you are using the spring-guides on a linux system (at least on ubuntu) the execute bit is not set on gradlew. Therefore you can't execute the gradle wrapper.
You have to do a

chmod o+x gradlew

first.
I think this is an issue for all spring-guides using the gradle wrapper.

Imported the 'complete' version of the project into STS 3.5.0.M@. When I deploy it to the TcServer instance by drag and drop I get this error while the server is starting and the app does not appear to get properly deployed.

The same also happens when I run "./gradlew war" and deploy the resulting war manually to the same TcServer instance.

The error: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.tomcat.websocket.server.WsSci

Hi All ,

I want to add next section to in gs-convert-jar-to-war guide .

Guide went well if you use Spring Web only , but if You are using Spring Data JPA in your project and need datasourc to connect with your DataBase for example MySQL .

your war file will not be deployed on tomcat because not able to create datasource as it can not find application.properties file where you configure data base connection.

To Solve this issue i add @propertysource("classpath:application.properties") to my Application.java.

So i hope to mention it you Guide for more simplicity.

Similar Problem :

Thanks

I need to deploy an ear module which has an ejb and a war module. we created the war file using spring boot. when i try deploying the ear into glassfish, i get the following log beyond which i dont seem to go beyond..

[#|2014-03-04T14:53:51.787+0530|INFO|glassfish3.1.2|javax.enterprise.system.container.web.com.sun.enterprise.web|_ThreadID=17;_ThreadName=Thread-4;|PWC1412: WebModule[null] ServletContext.log():Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath: [com.espn.api.motorsports.config.WebAppInitializer@18f9ba0]|#]

After changing the build.gradle file (apply plugin: 'war') you have to call

./gradlew eclipseWtp 

to change the eclipse project to a web project.

If you don't do this, you are not able to deploy the project directly to tcserver.

Have this guide be non-standard and show the basics for maven and gradle on how to convert a JAR build to a WAR build.

When using the spring boot started parent 0.5.0.M7 the final war file includes the tomcat-embed-core-7.0.47.jar and the application fails to start in a tomcat container.
Original:

Changed to

org.springframework.boot
spring-boot-starter-parent
0.5.0.M7
