java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.logging.Logger.debugf(Ljava/lang/String;I)V WebLogic deployment

Question

When I'm trying to deploy my application to WebLogic server(firstly I'm building war archive with Maven and then deploying with IntelliJ Idea WebLogic plugin) I'm getting this error: What have I done wrong?

Answer 1

I have just come across this issue when upgrading from Weblogic 12.1.3 to 12.2.1, using Hibernate 5.0.6.FINAL (The only thing I changed when I got this issue was the weblogic version - 12.1.3 was already configured for JPA 2.1)

I figured it's a classpath issue with different version of jboss-logging in the container - so I added an entry in my weblogic-application.xml file:

<wls:prefer-application-packages>
        <wls:package-name>org.jboss.logging.*</wls:package-name>
</wls:prefer-application-packages>

After doing so Weblogic takes the proper jboss-logging version that is bundled with Hibernate and deploys my application successfully.

Answer 2

It is very likely that you are using a version of a dependency that does not contain the method you are trying to use. Try to update your dependencies to a newer version.

Answer 3

I see that you have Jersey dependencies. If you still want to use Hibernate 5, see my answer here : https://stackoverflow.com/a/32278984/3525027

Answer 4

I had the same issue with Wildfly and the latest Hibernate version (5.0.3.Final). The solution was to remove jboss-logging completely from pom.xml since it obviously takes the logging from another library (weld-se).

I don't even know why I added jboss-logging. My projects works without it too.

Answer 5

自己注意：将此添加到您的jvm args中以查找根本原因

-verbose:class

Answer 6

Add below param in webloic.xml file.

<wls:container-descriptor>
        <wls:prefer-application-packages>
            <wls:package-name>com.ctc.wstx.*</wls:package-name>
            <wls:package-name>org.springframework.context.*</wls:package-name>
            <!-- DO NOT REORDER slf4j and jboss -->
            <wls:package-name>org.slf4j.*</wls:package-name>
            <wls:package-name>org.jboss.*</wls:package-name>
                    </wls:prefer-application-packages>
    </wls:container-descriptor>

or like this:

<wls:container-descriptor>
        <wls:prefer-web-inf-classes>true</wls:prefer-web-inf-classes>
    </wls:container-descriptor>
