Cannot launch my app with STS 2.7.0 on any server
Hi
I have a web app that is combined of a chain of project dependencies using Maven 2. The app uses Hibernate 3.5.6. So far I have used STS 2.3.2 and everything worked perfectly.
However, when I switched to STS 2.7.0, I couldn't start the app any of the servers. I tried with the default vFabric tc server and my old tc server (6.0 which I used with STS 2.3.2) but none worked. It starts the launch but then fails to load the app context.
The core reason according to the stack trace is that ClassLoader can not instantiate at least one of my entities, throwing a ClassNotFoundException.
Few facts:
1. JUnit tests that use the same chain of projects work fine and communicate with the DB using the same configuration.
2. STS 2.7.0 is completely fresh, not an upgrade of sort.
3. Same goes for the workspace - created by 2.7.0.
4. Maven Integration for WTP and Eclipse is installed (comes with STS 2.7.0).
5. I can see the entire project structure when I add the project to the server.
6. I physically checked the wtpwebapps deployment folder and indeed the class was there, inside the correct jar.
7. If matters, the class is at the base project, that is not dependent of any other project.
When deploying again the app in STS 2.3.2 it works ok.
What can cause this?
