I am using Rational Application Developer (RAD) v8.0.4.3 and have come across this problem whilst trying to republish my application to Websphere v8.0.0.7.

The console takes a very long time to determine that it cannot find the resource-ref declared in the deployment descriptor/annotation in the META-INF/ibm-ejb-jar-ext.xml. However, for each reference it says it cannot find, I have triple checked each class and can see the correct @Resource(name = "jdbc/SomethingDS", type = javax.sql.DataSource.class) above it.

an example reference that gives the title message in the ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml (note: not the *-ext.xml) is:

<message-driven name="SomeMDB">
        ...
        <resource-ref name="jdbc/SomethingDS"
            binding-name="jdbc/TheServerDAO" />
        ...
</message-driven>

and in the ibm-ejb-jar-ext.xml

<message-driven name="SomeMDB">
    <resource-ref name="jdbc/SomethingDS" isolation-level="..."/>
</message-driven>

Each time I republish a change it hangs on each reference lookup for around 2 minutes then finally prints out the title line:

To make matters worse, Sometimes the ear application decides to restart and the process begins again.

This problem causes up to 30 minutes delay for every. single. republish. so any help would be exponentially appreciated.

  • Does the deployment eventually complete successfully despite the warnings? If yes, does the isolation-level extension work at runtime? You mention both annotations and XML; are you using both to define the resources? If you're using annotation only, which classes are you annotating? You must annotate an EE injection-capable class. – Brett Kail Apr 04 '14 at 13:53
  • @bkail: The deployment completes successfully eventually, the isolation does work at runtime (it was a solution to a transaction problem we were having), I only use annotations to define the resources, The classes I am annotation are either EJBs or MDBs. – coderatchet Apr 05 '14 at 22:48
  • Interesting, I suppose the warnings are harmless then. I'm still not sure what's causing the slowness. I guess I'd recommend opening a PMR with IBM... – Brett Kail Apr 06 '14 at 01:07
