Deploy Spring MVC 3 Rest on WebSphere Application Server 8 - java

I am trying to deploy a Spring 3 MVC Rest Application on WebSphere Application Server 8.0 and have not had any success.
Here is my controller class
`
#Controller
public class BookingService {
public BookingService() {
System.out.println("test");
}
#RequestMapping(value="/test", method=RequestMethod.GET, produces="application/xml")
#ResponseBody
public String test() {
return "<test>test</test>";
}
}

I confirm that it does work on tomcat. In the tomcat logs the mapping is being created.
INFO: Mapped "{[/test],methods=[GET],params=[],headers=[],consumes=[],produces=[application/xml],custom=[]}" onto public java.lang.String com.westjet.ens.services.BookingService.test()
Doing a curl on http://localhost:8080/ens-das-web/api/test returns HTTP 200.
However in the was logs this does not appear and doing a curl http://localhost:9080/my-service-web/api/test returns 404 and the following response.
`

Also the WAS Log shows the following when doing a curl.

I was able to fix this. For some reason maven was not cleaning the WEB-INF/classes folder and my #Controller class was not available.

How to make static images visible in Spring MVC application?

I am unable to make static images visible in Spring MVC application.
If I add
<mvc:resources mapping="/images/**" location="/images/" />
into dispatcher-servlet.xml or applicationContext.xml then I am loosing an ability to execute controllers.
My current dispatcher-servlet.xml is follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

When I am opening /hello URL I am getting an error in log:

If I remove resources directive, I see the following messages in the log:

These messages are absent if resources directive is present.

You have to insert <mvc:annotation-driven> if you want to use the <mvc:resources ...> statement.
See for more details the following question & answer: Using mvc:resources problem

Data is inserted twice in database jpa/hibernate

My #Entity class is:

public class User {

private Integer id ;
private String name ;
public Integer getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Integer id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
JPA repository is:
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import com.project.entity.User;
public interface UserRepository extends JpaRepository<User, Integer> {
}
And, finally, #Service class is:
import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;
import javax.transaction.Transactional;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import com.project.entity.User;
import com.project.repository.UserRepository;
#Transactional
#Service
public class InitDbService {
#Autowired
private UserRepository userRepository;
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
User user = new User();
user.setName("Ali");
userRepository.save(user);
}
}
The above code works without errors/exceptions; database/table is also created but data is inserted into Entity/table twice when I see that in mySQL database.
Project is at github.

Taking a chance here since I see that you are using Spring MVC.
With Spring MVC, you have a servlet-context which defines the controllers, and an applicationContext for other beans. It might be that you are scanning for beans other than controllers in the servlet-context, which in turn will give you two beans of InitDbService, both running their #PostConstruct-method, inserting into the database.
This can be solved by defining component-scan like this:
servlet-context (after placing controllers and controllers only in a separate package):
<context:component-scan base-package="com.my.project.controller" />
applicationContext:
<context:component-scan base-package="com.my.project">
<context:exclude-filter type="annotation" expression="org.springframework.stereotype.Controller"/>
</context:component-scan>

You have to enable DEBUG logging to check that your initailizing bean isn't created twice, as Tobb mentioned before your bean is probabbly created in both contexts. Log stands clearly that first insert is executed during root context initialization (witch is correct) and second time during servlet context initialization (which is wrong)
I have found solution to your problem: You have to add commponent scan without default filters to your root-context
<context:component-scan base-package="com.project.db" use-default-filters="false">
<context:include-filter type="annotation" expression="org.springframework.stereotype.Controller" />
</context:component-scan>
and servlet-context is
<context:component-scan base-package="com.project.db" />
I have tested your project and its working fine with this change.

it seems you are creating application context in your controller.
move this code outside of the controller.
ApplicationContext ctx = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml");
and configure in your web.xml similer to below
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>

In the first block off log lines, you see the correct way to configure spring in a web application: the context is loaded through the ContextLoader either from a listener or from a (Dispatcher)Servlet.
In the second block, the same application context is loaded again directly from disk. This is not correct.
The second load probably happens in a Servlet.service(...) method.
Instead of reloading the application context on every request, you could use WebApplicationContextUtils.getRequiredWebApplicationContext(getServletContext()); to access the one loaded previously.
This is not the preferred way to use spring in a web application (You should read about spring web), but it is probably the easiest way to fix your setup.

Spring Hibernate Exception

I'm certain the url details and credentials are correct for the database, can anyone think of any other reasons?
It looks like it's trying to access the information_schema db, but in my XML I have set the db it should look at...

Thanks,

I'm extracting the correct answer to this question from the comments of a different answer.
This Exception gets thrown because your used dialect doesn't match the database.
In your configuration you use
<beans:prop key="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect</beans:prop>
although you're accessing a MySQL database. You should use a MySQL dialect instead. E.g.
<beans:prop key="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect</beans:prop>

Look at your error:
ERROR: org.hibernate.tool.hbm2ddl.SchemaUpdate - could not get database metadata
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Unknown table 'sequences' in information_schema
You are mapping your MySQL to information_schema which is system database in MySQL and this database does not contain sequances table,
BTW, of the record, you need to take into consideration that MySQL does not have "CREATE Sequance" command.

let you add this in the application.properties file
spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect
the the error will be disappeared.

org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No bean named 'customerService' is defined

I need help fixing this error I get when trying to deploy my web application into tomcat. Why isn't the customerService bean being defined? Am I missing something in my web.xml or do I have to map the customerService somehow? I am using annotations for mapping. any help would be much appreciated. Here is the error log entry from the localhost log:

By reading your exception , It's sure that you forgot to autowire customerService
You should autowire your customerservice .
make following changes in your controller class
#Controller
public class CustomerController{
#Autowired
private Customerservice customerservice;
......other code......
}
Again your service implementation class
write
#Service
public class CustomerServiceImpl implements CustomerService {
#Autowired
private CustomerDAO customerDAO;
......other code......
.....add transactional methods
}
If you are using hibernate make necessary changes in your applicationcontext xml file(configuration of session factory is needed).
you should autowire sessionFactory set method in your DAO mplementation
please find samle application context :

note that i am using jdbc.properties file for jdbc url and driver specification

You will have to annotate your service with #Service since you have said I am using annotations for mapping

Please make sure that your applicationContext.xml file is loaded by specifying it in your web.xml file:
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

Just another possibility:
Spring initializes bean by type not by name if you don't define bean with a name, which is ok if you use it by its type:
Producer:
#Service
public void FooServiceImpl implements FooService{}
Consumer:
#Autowired
private FooService fooService;
or
#Autowired
private void setFooService(FooService fooService) {}
but not ok if you use it by name:
ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("applicationContext.xml");
ctx.getBean("fooService");
It would complain: org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No bean named 'fooService' is defined
In this case, assigning name to #Service("fooService") would make it work.
