Hello,

We used a fresh docker compose setup to deploy XNAT:

- It works with XNAT 1.8.6.1 without the container service plugin

- It FAILS with XNAT 1.8.6.1 and the latest container service plugin source code (error attached)

- It works with XNAT 1.8.6.1 and container service plugin version 3.2.1 (did not try other versions)

Would you know how to have the latest XNAT version work with the latest container service plugin source code ?

Best wishes,

Michael

error due to plugin.txt

Hi Michael,

Your log contains:

"jar:file:/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/lib/prefs-1.8.5.jar!/org/nrg/prefs/services/impl/DefaultNrgPreferenceService.class"

So it looks like your setup is still actually using 1.8.5. Is there maybe an older exploded war in the ROOT dir?

Thanks,

Charlie

There’s definitely something going on with the XNAT version. That full error comes down to this:

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.vladmihalcea.hibernate.type.json.JsonType

That class is contained in the library hibernate-types-43-version.jar. This was added to XNAT in 1.8.0 at v2.9.3 but was upgraded to v2.14.0 with XNAT 1.8.5.

The fact that that class isn’t being found indicates there’s something mighty wrong going on.

Do you maybe have an existing image for XNAT on the Docker server so that that’s being re-used instead of building a new image when launching the container?

Rick (and Charlie),

Many thanks for the very prompt feedback. I rebuilt the image but now I have a different error so will have to investigate more on Monday so will update you then.
