Error while deploying war that uses alfresco services

[Jaime Carballo Diaz Infante]

Greetings guys,

I have the following issue, our team made a Spring REST API that uses alfresco jars and dependencies to connect to local alfresco service. The war deploys just fine, however when i try to call a function that uses a method to retrieve a file URL i get the following error:

I have checked the jar in question wss4j-1.5.5.jar and the method Transform.init() does exists in it, so i don't know whats going on here.

Also i verified that all the jars needed are bundled in the war /web-inf/lib/ path.

Additionally deploying the same war on tomcat 9 works without issues.

¿Does anyone have any idea why i have this behavior happening in payara?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I assume you need to configure the classloading delegation as there is a dependency included in the WAR that is also available within Payara.
