problem with javax.mail packages

[Cuball]

When I try to use org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderIm pl in my applicationContext class I keep get the following error when starting the application :

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/mail/MessagingException

although I imported the com.springsource.javax.mail bundle in my MANIFEST.MF, I tried removing the Import-Bundle and use the Import-Package (javax.mail) but I keep getting the error...

any ideas what could be wrong?

It seems that you need to add JavaMail to your classpath : http://java.sun.com/products/javamai...ads/index.html

I did import the bundle

javax.mail
org.springframework.context.support

these should contain the required classes...

[Andy Wilkinson]

There's no reason why this should not work. I've just tried a basic simple single-bundle application that create a JavaMailSenderImpl in its application context and it doesn't exhibit the problem that you're seeing.

There must be some subtle difference in your application that's causing the problem. If you'd like us to look into this further please open a JIRA, attaching an application that reproduces the problem.

Thanks,
Andy

[Andy Wilkinson]

Looking at your stack trace you can see which bundle's classloader was attempting to load a javax.mail class:

Caused by: com.springsource.kernel.osgi.framework.ExtendedClassNotFoundException: javax.mail.MessagingException in KernelBundleClassLoader: [bundle=org.springframework.context.support_2.5.6.A]

You can see from this that Spring's context support bundle wasn't able to load the javax.mail.MessagingException class. The context support bundle contains an optional import for javax.mail. My guess would be that the context support bundle isn't wired to the javax.mail bundle, possibly because javax.mail wasn't available when the context support bundle was resolved. If that's the case, starting dm Server with the javax.mail bundle in the repository should fix the problem. If it doesn't, I'd recommend taking a look at the wiring using the Telnet console, available by default on port 2401.
