> When the classpath of a client application is setup to point to a network (e.g. \\servername\share\domain_classpath, for instance in a cluster of application servers), axis2 fails to engage modules on the classpath with an AxisFault with the message "Unable to engage module". The problem is located in the class org.apache.axis2.deployment.RepositoryListener in the method loadClassPathModules():
>     protected void loadClassPathModules() {
>         ModuleDeployer deployer = deploymentEngine.getModuleDeployer();
>         // Find Modules on the class path (i.e. if classpath includes "addressing.mar" then
>         // addressing will be available for engaging)
>         ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
>         try {
>             Enumeration moduleURLs = loader.getResources("META-INF/module.xml");
>             while (moduleURLs.hasMoreElements()) {
>                 try {
>                     URL url = (URL)moduleURLs.nextElement();
>                     String fileName = url.toString();
>                     if (fileName.startsWith("jar")) {
>                         url = ((java.net.JarURLConnection) url.openConnection()).getJarFileURL();
>                         fileName = url.toString();
>                          File f = new File(new URI(fileName));
>                         addFileToDeploy(f, deployer ,WSInfo.TYPE_MODULE);
>                     } else if (fileName.startsWith("file")) {
>                         fileName = fileName.substring(0, fileName.lastIndexOf("/META-INF/module.xml"));
>                         File f = new File(new URI(fileName));                                                         // *** IllegalArgumentException thrown here!
>                         addFileToDeploy(f, deployer ,WSInfo.TYPE_MODULE);
>                     } 
>                 } catch (URISyntaxException e) {
>                     log.info(e);
>                 }
>             }
>         } catch (Exception e) {
>             // Oh well, log the problem
>             log.debug(e);
>         }
> // rest of method omitted.
> The method finds all the module.xml files on the classpath and creates a File object for each of them. The use of the File class assumes that the classloader is not a network classloader. However, If the classpath is set up as mentioned above, the URI created will contain an authority part, and an IllegalArgumentException is thrown in the line marked *** above. To make things worse, the loop is terminated by the exception, which is debugged to a log (meaning it is lost in my system, and probably most others). 
> Possible solutions:
> As a minimum, error handling should be improved to make it easier to locate this problem when it happens.
> The use of File instances to load the module.xml files should eliminated (replaced by InputStreams?) to make module loading robust to classloaders working over a network.
