I get this error in a Java maven project. The weird thing is, it doesn't appear on every machine so I assume it has something to do with a configuration issue.
The class RoleKeyCacheImpl is a #Startup #Singleton:
#Startup
#Singleton
public class RoleKeyCacheImpl implements RoleKeyCache { ... }
That's the error Wildfly triggers when deploying the service.
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: WFLYEE0040: A component
named 'RoleKeyCacheImpl' is already defined in this module at
org.jboss.as.ee.component.EEModuleDescription.addComponent(EEModuleDescription.java:167)
at
org.jboss.as.ejb3.deployment.processors.EJBComponentDescriptionFactory.addComponent(EJBComponentDescriptionFactory.java:58)
I've tried:
installing a new Wildfly (V10, V13) on the same machine -> doesn't help
installing a completely new Eclipse on this machine -> doesn't help
cleaning & rebuilding all related projects
making sure the deployments-folder is empty and doesn't contain old versions of the same WAR
read the related question here which also didn't help (they use Spring): A component named 'XXX' is already defined in this module in JBoss 7.1.1
read and tried this q&a: Wrong dependencies with EJB in JBoss Wildfly (server-clean) -> doesn't help
deleted and rebuilt the local maven rep (".m2") -> no effect
checking out the same source on another computer -> does work on one machine, on another it gives the same error
I have absolutely no clue what the issue is or even could be. On one machine, we check it out and it runs without errors. On others, the exact same error happens.
Does anybody have an idea?
I had this same issue multiple times with EAP 7.1 and now again with WildFly 21.0.0. I know by experience this is an issue caused by Eclipse who tries to deploy automatically to a configured WildFly instance. During the deployment (or undeployment) some concurrent file issue arises and files who should be removed, are still on the filesystem, causing this error that a component is already defined.
In fact it is not already defined, it is just WildFly that is confused because it finds in his temporary directories some old files which shouldn't be there and reference your exact same component.
Solution: remove in the WildFly standalone directory the content in the 'deployments' directory and the 'tmp' directory. Rest assured, all what is there is okay to remove safely. Reboot and the error message will be gone ;-)
You should pay attention to not have two #Stateless EJB annotations on top of two classes with the same name - in the same module.
You may differentiate them by using the name attribute in the annotation and put different values in each class
Looks like the class already exists. Check if it does...you may have to rewrite that part of EEModuleDescription to use its own private methods (which would be what you would write) rather than overriding methods in RoleKeyCacheImpl. If the class actually does not exist then right-click on the project -> Maven 2 Tools -> Generate Eclipse Artifacts (Check for Updates). That will regenerate all of the dependencies that the project uses. Also please be sure that you have not added any new projects to the classpath by mistake as that may also cause this error.
I just ran into this today when a colleague added a maven dependency.
Turns out this dependency was a jar with a nasty classpath entry or "../" in the manifest.
I edited the jar's manifest.mf that was cached in my local maven repository using 7-zip and removed the "../" classpath entry.
Then re-packaged my war file (maven clean install) and bingo, it works!
In my case it was caused by org.libreoffice jurt version 5.4.2 (but other versions I checked also have the classpath nastiness).
Unfortunately I was lucky we pinpointed it to a dependency, YMMV!
Per the recommendation from here: WAS 8.5: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl incompatible with javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory, I've looked through all the jars and cannot find xercesImpl-2.8.1.jar. I did remove crimson_1.1.1.jar from my project but that did not alter the error (java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl incompatible with javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory). I looked for the method in question (SAXParserFactoryImpl) and found it here: C:\Program Files\IBM\IBMIMShared\plugins\org.apache.xerces_2.9.0.v200805270400.jar. Since this jar is part of the Websphere installation, how can I remove it? Or does it need to be updated with a newer version that resolves this incompatibility?
Ok, I found the solution. With the goal of replacing crimson_1.1.1.jar, I looked for other jars (on my machine) having the class SAXParserFactoryimpl. I found it in several jars, two in particular: xercesimpl-2.8.0 and xercesimpl-2.9.1. I ultimately picked xercesimpl-2.8.0.jar because I needed to include another jar in my app, commons-fileupload-1.2.jar. When I downloaded this commons package to include it into my app, it came with xercesimpl-2.8.0.jar. So with that as the connection, I removed all references to crimson_1.1.1.jar and replaced it with xercesimpl-2.8.0.jar in my application. I also had to set my EAR's deployment descriptor (EAR > deployment descriptor > Deployment tab > Application section) to PARENT_FIRST for Classloader mode and APPLICATION for WAR classloader policy. So with the jars swapped and the deployment descriptor modified, the server started up w/o error and no longer got this incompatibility error and my application was finally working!
I am in the process of migrating a legacy application from weblogic to Tomcat 6.
The application needs to access ejbs; to achieve that, I added wlclient.jar to the classpath.
When the methods in the legacy jars responsible for communicating with the ejbs are called, I get the following exception :
javax.naming.NamingException: Unhandled exception in lookup
[Root exception is org.omg.CORBA.MARSHAL: vmcid: SUN minor code: 211 completed: Maybe]
which cause is :
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: interface com.xxx.xxx.InterfaceName is not visible from class loader
at java.lang.reflect.Proxy.getProxyClass(Proxy.java:353)
at java.lang.reflect.Proxy.newProxyInstance(Proxy.java:581)
at weblogic.iiop.ProxyDesc.readResolve(ProxyDesc.java:45)
That Interface seems to be used to define the method called from the client to return some informations from the server where the ejbs are deployed.
When running with verbose:class, I find that the Interface is actually loaded from the local jar. The corresponding interface on the server is loaded too :
[Loaded com.xx.xx.InterfaceName_t3s99q_InterfaceNameIntf from http://192.168.x.xx:port/path/classes/]
Even though I do not have any idea how that works internally, I assumed the lookup had gone well since it finds the correct class on the server.
When putting breakpoints in Proxy.getProxyClass, I found the used classloader when the exception occurs was a Launcher$AppClassLoader; the URL's it used to lookup were those in my local classpath (a.k.a. src/main/java and such) and not the webapp's path (a.k.a. WEB-INF/lib and such).
So my question is : is it possible that the wrong ClassLoader gets used for that specific lookup (local one instead of Tomcat's webapp level one)?
Can I specify a specific ClassLoader?
Am I looking in the completely wrong direction to resolve that issue ?
Well I lost 1.5 days on this, so I'll post an answer hoping it will eventually be useful to someone.
The problem was that I included wlclient.jar in eclipse classpath, and since the oracle implementation uses super.getClass().getClassLoader() , it would return the ClassLoader used to load the Class in which the call is made a.k.a. the local ClassLoader and not the one from the Webapp, so it did not have visiblity of the webapp dependencies.
I updated my project to include the jar in WEB-INF/lib so it would be loaded by the webapp and thus super.getClass().getClassLoader() would return the right ClassLoader.
An other possibility would have been to modify that line to use Thread.currentThread.getContextClassLoader instead.
I've got an interesting problem in which the org.apache.log4j.Logger class is not found during runtime. I'm trying to get authorized and that is where it's failing:
OAuthAuthorizer oauthAuthorizer = new OAuthAuthorizer(OAUTH_CONSUMER_KEY, OAUTH_CONSUMER_SECRET, SAML_PROVIDER_ID, userId);
I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.6. Here is what I know:
I've looked in my UI.war/WEB-INF/lib directory and I see the log4j-1.2.17.jar there.

I decomplied XMLConfigurator and oddly it doesn't import org.apache.log4j.Logger It uses org.slf4j.Logger which is also in my jars directory (slf4j-api-1.7.5.jar). Also interesting is that line 60 (see stack trace) is a blank line in my decompile.
Of course if I add Logger.xxxxx during design time, it finds it just fine.
I'm using the code/jars directly from the sample java code, but imported into my existing application.
I've been scouring the web for answers and I believe I've checked all the areas I can think of. I also referenced this very good page: http://myarch.com/classnotfound/
Given authorization is step 1 in using the Intuit Developer API, I'm kinda stuck.

I'm still working on interpreting the results.
During runtime your application is unable to find the jar.
Taken from this answer by Jared:
It is important to keep two different exceptions straight in our head
in this case:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException This an Exception, it indicates that the
class was not found on the classpath. This indicates that we were
trying to load the class definition, and the class did not exist on
the classpath.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError This is Error, it indicates that the JVM
looked in its internal class definition data structure for the
definition of a class and did not find it. This is different than
saying that it could not be loaded from the classpath. Usually this
indicates that we previously attempted to load a class from the
classpath, but it failed for some reason - now we're trying again,
but we're not even going to try to load it, because we failed
loading it earlier. The earlier failure could be a
ClassNotFoundException or an ExceptionInInitializerError (indicating
a failure in the static initialization block) or any number of other
problems. The point is, a NoClassDefFoundError is not necessarily a
classpath problem.

You can use the following maven dependency in your pom file. Otherwise, you can download the following two jars from net and add it to your build path.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
<version>1.6.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
<version>1.6.4</version>
</dependency>
This is copied from my working project. First make sure it is working in your project. Then you can change the versions to use any other(versions) compatible jars.
For AggCat, you can refer the POM file of the sample java application.

Check in Deployment Assembly,
I have the same error, when i generate the war file with the "maven clean install" way and deploy manualy, it works fine, but when i use the runtime enviroment (eclipse) the problems come.
The solution for me (for eclipse IDE) go to: "proyect properties" --> "Deployment Assembly" --> "Add" --> "the jar you need", in my case java "build path entries".
Maybe can help a litle!
With the suggestions #jhadesdev and the explanations from others, I've found the issue here.
After adding the code to see what was visible to the various class loaders I found this:
All versions of log4j Logger:
zip:<snip>war/WEB-INF/lib/log4j-1.2.17.jar!/org/apache/log4j/Logger.class
All versions of log4j visible from the classloader of the OAuthAuthorizer class:

zip:<snip>war/WEB-INF/lib/xmltooling-1.3.1.jar!/org/opensaml/xml/XMLConfigurator.class
All versions of XMLConfigurator visible from the classloader of the OAuthAuthorizer class:
jar:<snip>com.bea.core.bea.opensaml2_1.0.0.0_6-1-0-0.jar!/org/opensaml/xml/XMLConfigurator.class
zip:<snip>war/WEB-INF/lib/ipp-java-aggcat-v1-devkit-1.0.2.jar!/org/opensaml/xml/XMLConfigurator.class
zip:<snip>war/WEB-INF/lib/xmltooling-1.3.1.jar!/org/opensaml/xml/XMLConfigurator.class
I noticed that another version of XMLConfigurator was possibly getting picked up.
I decompiled that class and found this at line 60 (where the error was in the original stack trace) private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(XMLConfigurator.class); and that class was importing from org.apache.log4j.Logger!
So it was this class that was being loaded and used. My fix was to rename the jar file that contained this file as I can't find where I explicitly or indirectly load it. Which may pose a problem when I actually deploy.
Thanks for all help and the much needed lesson on class loading.
Based on the stacktrace, an intuit class com.intuit.ipp.aggcat.util.SAML2AssertionGenerator needs a saml jar on the classpath.
A saml class org.opensaml.xml.XMLConfigurator needs on it's turn log4j, which is inside the WAR but cannot find it.
One explanation for this is that the class XMLConfigurator that needs log4j was found not inside the WAR but on a downstream classloader. could a saml jar be missing from the WAR?
The class XMLConfigurator that needs log4j cannot find it at the level of the classloader that loaded it, and the log4j version on the WAR is not visible on that particular classloader.
In order to troubleshoot this, a way is to add this before the oauth call:
System.out.println("all versions of log4j Logger: " + getClass().getClassLoader().getResources("org/apache/log4j/Logger.class") );
System.out.println("all versions of XMLConfigurator: " + getClass().getClassLoader().getResources("org/opensaml/xml/XMLConfigurator.class") );
System.out.println("all versions of XMLConfigurator visible from the classloader of the OAuthAuthorizer class: " + OAuthAuthorizer.class.getClassLoader().getResources("org/opensaml/xml/XMLConfigurator.class") );
System.out.println("all versions of log4j visible from the classloader of the OAuthAuthorizer class: " + OAuthAuthorizer.class.getClassloader().getResources("org/apache/log4j/Logger.class") );
Also if you are using Java 7, have a look at jHades, it's a tool I made to help troubleshooting these type of problems.
In order to see what is going on, could you post the results of the classpath queries above, for which container is this happening, tomcat, jetty? It would be better to put the full stacktrace with all the caused by's in pastebin, just in case.
Had the same problem, it was indeed caused by weblogic stupidly using its own opensaml implementation. To solve it, you have to tell it to load classes from WEB-INF/lib for this package in weblogic.xml:
<prefer-application-packages>
<package-name>org.opensaml.*</package-name>
</prefer-application-packages>
maybe <prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes> would work too.
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException is indicate that class is not found in class path.
it could be the version of log4j is not compatible.
check for different log4j version.
I had the same issue, for me this fixed the issue:
right click on the project ->maven -> update project
Add compile 'org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-1.2-api:2.17.1' and then it will automatically work
In my case, the error was due to some dependencies using log4j v 1.x that I removed from the classpath. So I introduced the log4j-1.2-api to bridge v 1.x to 2.x as recommended in the Apache Migration guide:
After introducing this dependency in my build.gradle, the error disappeared :
implementation 'org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-1.2-api:2.17.+!!'
Following works for me everytime I face the problem
rightclick on project(say abc-war)-> properties -> Deployment assembly->add->java build path entries->Maven dependencies.
I have a project with the following configuration:
WebSphere Application Server 6.1.0.19
wsdl4j-1.6.2.jar at the $WAS_ROOT/java/jre/lib/ext directory, (to overwrite wsdl4j-1.6.1 included in WAS 6.1).
cxf-2.4.0.jar (and others dependencies) at the $WAS_ROOT/lib/ext directory.
An EAR 'X' with a Web Module 'Y'.
The Web Module 'Y' has a JAR Module 'Z' (at the WEB-INF/lib directory).
'Z' has a set of classes that implement a SOAP Web Service generated using CXF's wsdl2java.
'Y' has a business class (at the WEB-INF/classes directory) that calls the SOAP Web Service Client at 'Z'.
This configuration works well at my development enviroment (Rational Application Developer with a WebSphere AS 6.1 runtime). But at the QA enviroment, I had the following exception, (please pay attention at bolds in the stack trace):

Seems like the CompoundClassLoader (which works at application level) is trying to load a CXF's class which exists at the server runtime level.
I hope somebody help me with this issue. I'll be very very grateful.
Placing Jars in the WAS_HOME/lib/ext should be your last resort.
Always try the PARENT_LAST classloader mode and have your classes/jars picked up first.
This would avoid a number of problems for you.
The App Server start up would use this directory extensively and if there are clashes it might not even start up.
THe best way to troubleshoot is to turn on classloading and look at the native_stdout/stderr file and see who is loading the class(es) that is in question.
Bkail,
Did you mean to say things differently? This path is high up the class loader chain so it would be checked earlier (with the default PARENT_FIRST) class loading policy.
This would be in the second rung (after the BOOT CLassloader of the JDK) and it's extensions.
