WildFly 37.0.0.Final Management Console Bug

[Osman Balci]

The following module.xml file:

-----

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.9">
    <resources>
        <resource-root path="mysql-connector-j-9.4.0.jar"/>
    </resources>
    <dependencies>
        <module name="jakarta.api"/>
        <module name="jakarta.transaction.api"/>
        <module name="jakarta.xml.bind.api"/>
    </dependencies>
</module>

------

is placed in /Installation Folder/wildfly/modules/system/layers/base/com/mysql/main/

directory together with mysql-connector-j-9.4.0.jar

When added using the management console, it produces:

WFLYJCA0041: Failed to load module for driver [com.mysql]
WFLYJCA0115: Module for driver [com.mysql] or one of its dependencies is missing: [jakarta.api]

As a workaround, I inserted the following code in the standalone.xml configuration file, which fixed the problem.

                    <driver name="mysql" module="com.mysql">
                        <driver-class>com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver</driver-class>
                        <xa-datasource-class>com.mysql.cj.jdbc.MysqlXADataSource</xa-datasource-class>
                    </driver>

This tells me that the management console has a bug and is unable to add the JDBC driver as a module.

By management console you mean CLI or HAL?

As to error message it does not make much sense without above context or exact steps you performed. Can you provide exact step-by-step guide how to reproduce?

Here are the instructions for my students to open the Management Console:

Also, Im fairly sure you wont get as far as missing jakarta.api, since module.xml is missing "name" attribute in "module" tag.  IF server does not explode when you put that piece of XML than there is a bug or feature elsewhere.


This should do the trick:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.9" name="com.mysql">

    <resources>
        <resource-root path="mysql-connector-j-9.4.0.jar"/>
    </resources>
    <dependencies>

        <module name="javax.api"/>
        <module name="javax.transaction.api"/>

        <module name="jakarta.xml.bind.api"/>
       
    </dependencies>
</module>
