How to disable default TomEE JMS and JDBC resources creation?

["Shultz, Dmitry" <Dm...@kaltire.com>]

Hi All,

My tomee.xml is deliberately empty, but in the log at start up TomEE is configuring Default Unmanaged JDBC and Default JMS (which I don't really need).
The deployment is failing with this:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/activemq/ra/ActiveMQResourceAdapter

How to disable these default resources creation?

Cheers,
Dmitry

Hi Jonathan,

I had to put SINGLETON and MANAGED containers definition when I disabled the default containers creation using the openejb.offline=true, but this gave me the clear error about some JMS connection factory that should not be there (instead of trying to create a matching default one). Apparently I forgot to remove the injection of old jms connection factory resource in one of my beans while migrating the service from Sonic to Artemis JMS. Once I removed it and cleaned up the tomee.xml everything went to normal :)  

Thanks a lot for your help!

Cheers,
Dmitry

Hi

You can try the -Dopenejb.offline=true setting. This will stop any resources (and containers) being created automatically. The downside is that anything you are using, you'll need to explicitly declare in your tomee.xml - so EJB bean containers, for example. I just added this setting to an app here to get the following message:

21-Feb-2019 11:14:26.512 SEVERE [main]
org.apache.tomee.catalina.TomcatWebAppBuilder.startInternal Unable to deploy collapsed ear in war StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[]

org.apache.tomee.catalina.GlobalListenerSupport.lifecycleEvent(GlobalListenerSupport.java:134)

Which is correct, I'm using Singleton EJB beans and I'd need to define a container for them.

The error that you're seeing, sounds like something is triggering TomEE to try and start ActiveMQ, and that is failing, presumably because you're running the Webprofile flavour. This could happen if you have MDBs, or references to Topics/Queues in your app that you are intending to point to something else that isn't ActiveMQ. If you post your log, I'd be happy to take a look and advise whether there is something you could tweak to avoid the error, without going to the extreme of setting openejb.offline=true. Or if its a bug in the server, I'm happy to help fix it.

Thanks

Jon
