beans.xml file and java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: JBAS011859: Naming context is read-only

Question

I have very strange exception after starting using beans.xml file in our EJB and jar files.
We use JBoss7.1.1 release.
Our application is packaged as ear file.
It was deployed and works correctly earlier.
There is some Module1 EJB component. Now we use @Inject annotation for some beans in Module1 and therefore added META-INF/beans.xml.
Another EJB component Module2 uses EJB from Module1 like:

@EJB

private IOmistajaFinderLocal omistajaFinder;

But now application cannot be deployed on JBoss. There following exception:

Both Module1 and Module2 are included in application.xml file and generated ear file. Deleting beans.xml resolves the deploying process but in this case we can not use @Injection annotation.

What is the problem and how can I resolve it? Thank you.

Did you ever resolve this? I am having the exact same problem with Jersey and JBoss 8 (Wildfly) — dave823, Mar 27 '14 at 15:41

This is a known issue when using jersey. Try to add below option to your jvm, which will fix your issue. If you are running the jboss server from eclipse then add to the server runtime configuration. If you are starting the jboss from command prompt using standalone.bat then add the below option to standalone.conf.bat. Similarly if you are using *Nix then add to standalone.conf.

set "JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dcom.sun.jersey.server.impl.cdi.lookupExtensionInBeanManager=true"

For use in eclipse (run and debug), open server properties, launch configuration properties and set the VM arguments: -Dcom.sun.jersey.server.impl.cdi.lookupExtensionInBeanManager=true

I am able to manage this. Add a patch in naming jar. Just change org.jboss.as.naming.service.NamingStoreService -> readOnly = true

Full java class -

public class NamingStoreService implements Service<ServiceBasedNamingStore> {

private final boolean readOnly = false;
private volatile ServiceBasedNamingStore store;

public NamingStoreService() {
    this(false);
    System.out.println("Setting readOnly "+readOnly);
}

public NamingStoreService(boolean readOnly) {
    System.out.println("Setting readOnly "+readOnly);
}

/**
 * Creates the naming store if not provided by the constructor.
 *
 * @param context The start context
 * @throws StartException If any problems occur creating the context
 */
public void start(final StartContext context) throws StartException {
    if(store == null) {
        final ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry = context.getController().getServiceContainer();
        final ServiceName serviceNameBase = context.getController().getName();
        final ServiceTarget serviceTarget = context.getChildTarget();
        store = readOnly ? new ServiceBasedNamingStore(serviceRegistry, serviceNameBase) : new WritableServiceBasedNamingStore(serviceRegistry, serviceNameBase, serviceTarget);
    }
}

/**
 * Destroys the naming store.
 *
 * @param context The stop context
 */
public void stop(StopContext context) {
    if(store != null) {
        try {
            store.close();
            store = null;
        } catch (NamingException e) {
            throw MESSAGES.failedToDestroyRootContext(e);
        }
    }
}

/**
 * Get the context value.
 *
 * @return The naming store
 * @throws IllegalStateException
 */
public ServiceBasedNamingStore getValue() throws IllegalStateException {
    return store;
}
}

beans.xml file and java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: JBAS011859: Naming context is read-only
