JavaMelody throws WebBeansDeploymentException

Question

Good evening,

I want to monitor my webapplication and read about the ease of javamelody. From the documentation it should be as easy as copying javamelody and jrobin into the webapp's WEB-INF/lib and restart the tomcat.

But I get a WebBeansDeploymentException when I startup tomcat with these two jar's in my WEB-INF/lib: javamelody-core-1.73.1.jar, jrobin-1.5.9.jar

I'm using openJPA, my beans.xml file is empty, but does exist.

My configuration:

Apache Tomcat: 8.5
Java: 1.8
javaee-api: 7.0
javamelody-core: 1.71.3
jrobin: 1.5.9

Since I did not find much about this issue on stackoverflow or google, I'd be thankful for any hint or link for further reading!

Thanks in advance!

Try to provide interceptors in your beans.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee" 
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee 
                           http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/beans_1_1.xsd"
       bean-discovery-mode="annotated">

  <interceptors>
    <class>net.bull.javamelody.MonitoringCdiInterceptor</class>
    <class>net.bull.javamelody.MonitoringAsynchronousCdiInterceptor</class>
  </interceptors>
</beans>

Thank you Dirk, this gets me to the next level - now I need a binding: `Interceptor class : net.bull.javamelody.MonitoringAsynchronousCdiInterceptor must have at least one @InterceptorBinding` - Isn't it possible to use javamelody without changes to the source code? — Bruno, Jul 11 '18 at 19:57

This is an issue #802 of javamelody with OpenEJB like in TomEE. The issue is fixed for the next version (1.76) to be released in a few months.

Meanwhile you may workaround the issue by adding a file WEB-INF/exclusions.list in your webapp with the following content:

# inherit from defaults, this is important to keep it
default-list
# ignore javamelody interceptors
javamelody-core-1.73.1.jar
