Classes are not loaded as after Hot Deployment in WAS

  • 1.  Classes are not loaded as after Hot Deployment in WAS

    Posted Sun July 12, 2020 10:22 PM
    Hi Team,

    I have manually copied few of the application jars to application(ear) installation location and restarted the Application Server.

    I dont see those jars are loaded in the classloader viewer and nothing dispalyed in the SystemOut.log

    I copied the log4j-api-version.jar, log4j-core-version.jar files to below location and restarted the AppServer.

    <ProfileRoot>/installedApps/CellName/App_Name.ear/

    How to troubleshoot the same?  Do i need to deploy any jars using admin console? or manually copying them to server directly and restarting would work?

    Please suggest. Thank you.

    Do you have those jars in a class path of any sort (like, in a module jar's MANIFEST.MF)? Jar files in the root of the EAR are not automatically added to application's class paths - they need to be specified in a manifest class path in order to get picked up. If you want them to be automatically visible to the application, you could use a /lib directory in the EAR or the WEB-INF/lib directory in a WAR, assuming your application has a web module.
