Upgrading from TomeEE 8 to TomEE 9 -> java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jakarta/management/Notification

Hi guys,

I'm updating our project from TomEE 8 to TomEE 9.

It compiles but our test framework is unhappy during runtime.

There is some magic which I don't understand in detail.

First we tell the EJBContainer to use deltaspike:

   System.setProperty("openejb.deployments.classpath.include", ".*deltaspike.*");

The the EJBContainer will be created.

   ejbContainer = jakarta.ejb.embeddable.EJBContainer.createEJBContainer();

When checking the module deltaspike-core-impl-1.9.6 which is in the classpath an excpetion will be thrown.

jakarta.ejb.EJBException: No EJBContainer provider available
Provider named org.apache.openejb.OpenEjbContainer$Provider threw unexpected exception at create EJBContainer:

The following providers:
org.apache.tomee.embedded.EmbeddedTomEEContainer$EmbeddedTomEEContainerProvider
Returned null from createEJBContainer call.

My understanding is this class jakarta.management.Notification is not existing. It should be still javax.management.Notification.

def deltaSpikeVersion = '1.9.6'

    testImplementation 'org.apache.tomee:tomee-embedded:9.1.0'

    testImplementation 'org.apache.deltaspike.cdictrl:deltaspike-cdictrl-api:' + deltaSpikeVersion

    testImplementation 'org.apache.deltaspike.modules:deltaspike-servlet-module-impl:' + deltaSpikeVersion + ':jakarta'
    testImplementation 'org.apache.deltaspike.test:test-utils:' + deltaSpikeVersion

Does anybody have an idea what I can do?

Thanks,
Markus
