Bluemix Java Liberty Web Project java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: when loading third party jar

The jars in the dep-jar folder do NOT get packaged with the final application binary(war). It is meant to be used during compilation only. If you want the jar to be included in the war (use during runtime), you need to include it in WebContent/WEB-INF/lib folder. If you create and...

WebSphere Liberty Core throwing java.io.IOException: Stream is closed
Found the reason. There's a bug in Spring Web 3.1.x where it attempts to close the stream twice. The bug was fixed in Spring Web 3.2.x. Most application servers will not log an error in this situation (as it's actually completely harmless), but WebSphere Liberty freaks out.
IBM WAS Liberty Network Deployment : Is free or license is required
Just to clarify a few things. WebSphere Liberty is free for development purposes. For production you may use version downloaded from wasdev.net for free (without support), if the heap size doesn't excess 2GB in the whole organization you are working. See details about that here What the Liberty runtime license...

How do you have your server.xml configured? Given the error you mention, I think it's missing the configuration for writing into the remote directories, which looks something like this: <remoteFileAccess> <writeDir>${writePath}</writeDir> </remoteFileAccess> You can define several write directories and each one can refer to variables or absolute paths, for example:...

The wasJmsClient-2.0 feature isn't available for 8.5.5.2, it is only currently available as a beta. It will be available on June 26th 2015, but that'll only install on top of 8.5.5.6 so you will need to upgrade. There is a wasJmsClient-1.1 feature which is available for 8.5.5.2. If you need...
Liberty profile: Fail to import classes in xml.jar from runtime in OSGi bundle
java,osgi,osgi-bundle,websphere-liberty

Configuring log4jdbc-log4j2 with Liberty Profile
java,db2,log4j2,websphere-liberty,log4jdbc
For a WebSphere Liberty server, all of the global server config is done in the server.xml file (located by defualt at WLP_INSTALL/usr/servers//server.xml). You will probably want something along these lines in your server.xml: <dataSource id="myDataSource" jndiname="jdbc/myDataSource" type="javax.sql.DataSource"> <jdbcDriver javax.sql.DataSource="net.sf.log4jdbc.sql.jdbcapi.DataSourceSpy"> <library> <fileset dir="C:/path/to/libs" includes="thedb2jar.jar log4j.jar" /> </library> </jdbcDriver> <properties...
websphere liberty - Force https for site without user authentication
Add <basicRegistry></basicRegistry> to your server.xml. It will not be used by your application since your security-constraint doesn't define any auth-constraint.

Mobile First - How to segmentate logs depending on the session
worklight,mobilefirst,java.util.logging,websphere-liberty,mobilefirst-server
This is not related to MobileFirst but to the underlying application server that handles the logs creation. AFAIK not WebSphere full profile nor WebSphere Liberty profile provide the ability to separate logs based on their contents. What you could do is create your own tool/script that will go over the...
Is Websphere Liberty Profile 8.5.5 compatible with Java EE 5?
The Java EE 5 compatibility list shows only servers implementing full profile. WebSphere Liberty currently implements web profile, so cant be listed there. Can I assume that if an implementation supports EE 6 then it also supports all previous EE versions? No, for example Liberty doesn't support EJB 2.x, which...
Where does WebSphere Liberty Profile Extract Applications?
Liberty profile does not currently extract the .war anywhere. It does extract nested JARs for the purposes of class loading to an internal directory (servers/yourServer/workarea/.../somewhere/); the specific directory will vary and the presence/contents shouldn't be relied upon. I thought of this directory for your other question, but I didn't mention...

Liberty Profile exploded directory
You can configure the Liberty Maven Plug-in with a custom server.xml. That server.xml can have a webApplication element that points to the directory of the exploded war file. For example, create your custom server.xml under src/main/wlp directory with: ... <webApplication location="./target/myApp/" name="myApp"/> ... Of course, the location attribute needs to...

Using JaCoCo with Liberty Profile 8.5.5.4 in Eclipse does not produce any code coverage
eclipse,jacoco,websphere-liberty
Are you using JaCoCo 0.7.3 or later? If yes, I suspect the problem is caused by changes in issue #272 because last I checked, WebSphere Liberty profile did not define classes with a CodeSource location, so this heuristic in JaCoCo causes all classes in applications running on WebSphere Liberty profile...

Can I extend WebSphere Liberty buildpack?
The Liberty buildpack you find on GitHub should be pretty similar to the one Bluemix uses especially in terms of features. Beta features are included and auto-configuration should work so in theory if you do cf push appName -b https://github.com/cloudfoundry/ibm-websphere-liberty-buildpack.git -p myapp.war it should work the same way if you...

Reading properties file from server location
"WEB-INF/classes" is part of your classpath. You can continue to read files as you do, by adding another folder to the classpath of the server. In that folder you would have the configuration files.

Websphere Liberty 8.5: Setting Java classpath
It is not possible to modify the JVM application classpath (normally specified via the -classpath JVM argument or the CLASSPATH environment variable). I would recommend using a <library> to give your applications visibility to the resources. If you need a directory, you should use <library><folder dir="..."/></library>. (As an aside, modifying...
For WebSphere Liberty Profile, backslash character inside bootstrap.properties file
Liberty will perform path normalization on all variables unless the attribute is defined as a password type. The only way to get around this currently would be to include the backslash character in server.xml rather than bootstrap.properties. For example, in server.xml: <jndiEntry value="${var1}\${var2}" jndiName="jndi/var1" id="var1"> bootstrap.properties: var1=AB var2=BC ...

Remote Debugging Fails with IntelliJ but works with Eclipse?

Is it possible to stop an MDB from receiving messages in Liberty Profile?
jms,websphere-liberty,message-driven-bean
There isn't a direct equivalent, but you can change the server xml so the activation specification binding no longer matches. When the server picks up the new configuration, which is dynamic by default, the binding won't match and the mdb will stop.
