Hi All, I am using Tomcat7.0.52 on Windows 7 64 Bit.
The issue I am facing is that when I try to deploy a war file, I receive the following exception: *Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.hornetq.jms.client.HornetQJMSConnectionFactory cannot be cast to javax.jms.ConnectionFactory* The set up is as follows: We have an implementation of HornetQServer that basically starts up some JMS threads for application specific tasks. The client side implementation has a class org.hornetq.jms.client.HornetQJMSConnectionFactory that implements the interface javax.jms.ConnectionFactory. (jms-api.jar). As part of our customized ant target that we run to start the Tomcat, we have set the classpath that points to the location where we have jms-api.jar, which implies that these would be taken care of by the Bootstrap Loader. Additionally, we have added a location to common.loader setting in catalina.properties that contains some HornetQspecific jars that should be available to all deployables of our application. These would be taken care of by Common classloader. At the same time, we have jms-api.jar file in the /WEB-INF/lib directory of our deployable as well. Now when we deploy this war file, we get the above mentioned exception. I tried the same set up on Tomcat7.0.50 as well and there, no such exception is encountered. I would like to know the probable cause of this issue and why this is working fine on Tomcat7.0.50 and not 7.0.52. Any feedback wold be greatly appreciated. Thanks
