geronimo-tomcat6-javaee5-2.1.7 does not start in 64 bit Platform when using JAVA 7 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-6111 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-6111 Project: Geronimo Issue Type: Bug Security Level: public (Regular issues) Components: geronimo-maven-plugin Affects Versions: 2.1.7 Environment: Windows AMD64 Reporter: Kavitha Varadarajan Problem recreation Steps: 1) Download Geronimo version geronimo-tomcat6-javaee5-2.1.7 from http://geronimo.apache.org/ 2) set JAVA_HOME to the jvm you want to test 3) run gsh geronimo/start-server this results in ArrayOutofBounds Exception..Here is the call Stack java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Array index out of range: -2 at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.util.CollisionCheckStack.findDuplicate(CollisionCheckStack.java:112) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.util.CollisionCheckStack.push(CollisionCheckStack.java:53) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.XMLSerializer.pushObject(XMLSerializer.java:471) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.XMLSerializer.childAsXsiType(XMLSerializer.java:574) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.property.SingleElementNodeProperty.serializeBody(SingleElementNodeProperty.java:113) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.ElementBeanInfoImpl$1.serializeBody(ElementBeanInfoImpl.java:98) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.ElementBeanInfoImpl$1.serializeBody(ElementBeanInfoImpl.java:127) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.ElementBeanInfoImpl.serializeBody(ElementBeanInfoImpl.java:244) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.ElementBeanInfoImpl.serializeRoot(ElementBeanInfoImpl.java:251) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.ElementBeanInfoImpl.serializeRoot(ElementBeanInfoImpl.java:33) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.XMLSerializer.childAsRoot(XMLSerializer.java:461) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.MarshallerImpl.write(MarshallerImpl.java:292) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.MarshallerImpl.marshal(MarshallerImpl.java:221) at javax.xml.bind.helpers.AbstractMarshallerImpl.marshal(AbstractMarshallerImpl.java:96) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.AttributesXmlUtil.writeAttribute(AttributesXmlUtil.java:71) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.AttributesXmlUtil.extractAttributeValue(AttributesXmlUtil.java:75) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.GBeanOverride.<init>(GBeanOverride.java:197) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.ConfigurationOverride.<init>(ConfigurationOverride.java:79) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.ServerOverride.<init>(ServerOverride.java:42) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.LocalAttributeManager.read(LocalAttributeManager.java:354) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.LocalAttributeManager.load(LocalAttributeManager.java:334) at org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.LocalAttributeManager.doStart(LocalAttributeManager.java:527) at org.apache.geronimo.gbean.runtime.GBeanInstance.createInstance(GBeanInstance.java:998) at org.apache.geronimo.gbean.runtime.GBeanInstanceState.attemptFullStart(GBeanInstanceState.java:268) at org.apache.geronimo.gbean.runtime.GBeanInstanceState.start(GBeanInstanceState.java:102) at org.apache.geronimo.gbean.runtime.GBeanInstanceState.startRecursive(GBeanInstanceState.java:124) at org.apache.geronimo.gbean.runtime.GBeanInstance.startRecursive(GBeanInstance.java:555) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.basic.BasicKernel.startRecursiveGBean(BasicKernel.java:379) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.config.ConfigurationUtil.startConfigurationGBeans(ConfigurationUtil.java:456) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.config.ConfigurationUtil.loadBootstrapConfiguration(ConfigurationUtil.java:208) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.config.ConfigurationUtil.loadBootstrapConfiguration(ConfigurationUtil.java:167) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.util.MainConfigurationBootstrapper.loadBootConfiguration(MainConfigurationBootstrapper.java:84) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.util.MainConfigurationBootstrapper.getMain(MainConfigurationBootstrapper.java:57) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.util.MainConfigurationBootstrapper.main(MainConfigurationBootstrapper.java:38) at org.apache.geronimo.cli.AbstractCLI.executeMain(AbstractCLI.java:67) Analysis: Irrespective of the JAVA 7 build we specify in the JAVA_HOME, geronimo uses the JAXB-impl.jar/jaxb-xjc.jar that is shipped along with geronimo, I confirmed it tracing the classloading. JAXB jar used by geronimo for serialization is from geronimo-bin/repository/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-impl/2.0.5/jaxb-impl-2.0.5.jar . This is a very old version of JAXB, and upon search it is evident that this version of JAXB has issues w.r.t 64 bit platform. Here is a related issue We could trace in JAXB forum http://www.java.net/node/661561 IUC, CollisionCheckStack is using System.identifyHashCode() and %'ing (remainder operator) by the array size. Since identityHashCode() can be negative, bad things can happen Problem is that Apache geronimo is using very old JAXB (2.0.5), which has a bug listed above. Can you move it to use updated JAXB ? Please let me know if you need more information. Thanks! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
