    EJBTimerService error on JBoss5 start up - without applications

    ellabi

      Hi

      I just starting to use JBoss5 with HSQLDB2.0.1 rc 3. Just installed and configured JBoss and HSQLDB, without any deployment of application.

      This is what I get in the log of server startup:

      16:49:17,405 ERROR [AbstractKernelController] Error installing to Start: name=jboss.ejb:persistencePolicy=database,service=EJBTimerService state=Create mode=Manual requiredState=Installed

      at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor107.invoke(Unknown Source)

      ...

       

      and then:

      DEPLOYMENTS MISSING DEPENDENCIES:
        Deployment "jboss.ejb:service=EJBTimerService" is missing the following dependencies:
          Dependency "jboss.ejb:persistencePolicy=database,service=EJBTimerService" (should be in state "Create", but is actually in state "**ERROR**")
        DEPLOYMENTS IN ERROR:
        Deployment "jboss.ejb:persistencePolicy=database,service=EJBTimerService" is in error due to the following reason(s): org.hsqldb.HsqlException: length must be specified in type definition: VARBINARY, **ERROR**

       

      Any help would be really appreciated

          I haven't tried JBoss AS with HSQLDB2. Looks like it now mandates the length for VARBINARY columns. Is upgrading to JBoss AS 6.0.0.Final an option for you? If yes, can you try AS 6.0.0.Final and upgrade HSQLDB to 2.x there? If you still run into same issue on that version, then let us know.

            The upgarde to version 6.0.0 wasn't helpful... Still the same problem. As I already notice, the version of HSQLDB is 2.0.1, "the latest stable version" - citate from the download page.

              Can you please post the new entire exception stacktrace that you see in JBoss AS 6.0.0.Final?

                Never tied it but the ".GeneralPurposeDatabasePersistencePlugin" caught my eye. Perhaps it doesn't know  it's a HSQLSB.

                 

                (nevermind, it turns out that there aren't that many other options than Oracle and general)

                  As a workaround you could try creating the table yourself (create statement can be determined by looking at http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/trunk/server/src/main/java/org/jboss/ejb/txtimer/GeneralPurposeDatabasePersistencePlugin.java)

                   

                  But it appears to be a bug since later HSQLDB2 versions appear to be stricter about its sizes and the metadata it returns doesn't say so.

                   

                  Mind filing a JIRA against 6.x so it's not forgotten?

                    Thanks for your answers

                    Unfortunately, my comp is generally failed, so now I'm installing it from scratch, and cann't publish more traces or JIRA...

                    Let continue later...

                        jaikiran

                        Can you try this:

                         

                        - Open the JBOSS_HOME/server/< servername>/conf/standardjbosscmp-jdbc.xml in a text editor

                        - Search for the "Hypersonic SQL" type-mappping in that file. It will look something like this:

                         

                        <type-mapping>
                                 <name>Hypersonic SQL</name>
                                 <row-locking-template/>
                                 ...
                        
                        
                        
                                 <mapping>
                                    <java-type>java.lang.Object</java-type>
                                    <!-- hsqldb only supports directly serializable objects for sql type OBJECT -->
                                    <jdbc-type>VARBINARY</jdbc-type>
                                    <sql-type>VARBINARY</sql-type>
                                 </mapping>
                        ...
                        
                              </type-mapping>
                        

                         

                        Try changing it to:

                         

                        <type-mapping>
                                 <name>Hypersonic SQL</name>
                                 <row-locking-template/>
                                 ...
                        
                        
                        
                                 <mapping>
                                    <java-type>java.lang.Object</java-type>
                                    <!-- hsqldb only supports directly serializable objects for sql type OBJECT -->
                                    <jdbc-type>VARBINARY</jdbc-type>
                                    <sql-type>VARBINARY(1024)</sql-type>
                                 </mapping>
                        ...
                        
                              </type-mapping>
                        

                         

                        See the change in the sql-type value. I set the length randomly to 1024.

                         

                        After this change, restart the server and see if it works.

                          Thank you very much - this is the answer for all my troubles (limited to JBoss and the current moment)
