Help!!, I am migrating an MDB which uses the Java Mail service, from geronimo 2.2 to 3.0.1 and I get the NoSuchProviderException. The user documentation has chapter on migration from 2.2 to 3.0 which has a rather short section on changes to be made for JavaMail. However I have not been successful. I should mention that it worked fine on Geronimo 2.2. I am relatively green with these technologies, so please excuse my ignorance.
I would greatly appreciate the help of anyone who has successfully used the default java mail session on geronimo 3.0 from an ejb or mdb. The mail session is defined as follows in the program. @Resource(name = "mail/TOMSignupMailSrv") private Session mailSession; My deployment plan openejb-jar.xml has the following dependencies: <sys:dependency> <sys:groupId>org.apache.geronimo.configs</sys:groupId> <sys:artifactId>javamail</sys:artifactId> <type>car</type> </sys:dependency> <sys:dependency> <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.javamail</groupId> <artifactId>geronimo-javamail_1.4_mail</artifactId> <type>jar</type> </sys:dependency> and the following resource reference <resource-ref> <ref-name>mail/TOMSignupMailSrv</ref-name> <resource-link>mail/MailSession</resource-link> </resource-ref> I have tried importing the transport package without success. <import-package>org.apache.geronimo.javamail.transport.smtp</import-package> I have also tried defining the mail package classes as non-overrideable so as to prevent the OSGi module class loader from attempting to load them as follows. <non-overridable-classes> <filter>javax.mail</filter> <filter>org.apache.geronimo.javamail</filter> </non-overridable-classes> TRACE: javax.mail.NoSuchProviderException: Unable to locate provider for protocol: smtp at javax.mail.Session.getProvider(Session.java:237) at javax.mail.Session.getTransport(Session.java:346) at javax.mail.Session.getTransport(Session.java:376) at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:67) at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:48) at com.infotek.fwk.ejbmail.MailService.sendMail(MailService.java:185) at com.infotek.fwk.ejbmail.MailService.onMessage(MailService.java:50) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)..... I have found a similar problem on the forum at http://apache-geronimo.328035.n3.nabble.com/Trouble-with-Geronimo-s-javax-mail-under-OSGi-td858884.html I tried the suggested solution as below, and it would successfully retrieve the providers, however I get an IllegalStateException: Can't overwrite cause, ClassLoader bakCL = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(null); try { Transport.send(message); } catch (Exception e) { LogUtil.log(this.getClass().getName(), "Mail service system Exception raised.", Level.SEVERE); e.printStackTrace (); } finally { Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(bakCL); } Trace: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't overwrite cause at java.lang.Throwable.initCause(Throwable.java:320) at javax.mail.MessagingException.setNextException(MessagingException.java:51) at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:109) at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:48) at com.infotek.fwk.ejbmail.MailService.sendMail(MailService.java:190) at com.infotek.fwk.ejbmail.MailService.onMessage(MailService.java:50)........ I feel there must be a better way of loading the providers instead of the code above. I would appreciate any help.
