Websphere 8.5 - ArrayIndexOutofBoundsException while starting application

1.8k views Asked by At

I've managed to deploy a simple Web application to Websphere 8.5, but unable to start it. It throws an ArrayIndexOutofBoundsException while starting my application.

We have been using Tomcat7 so far for our web app. It's a simple web-app with JSPs, JSs and Servlets.

I've tried a lot of options to deploy the application on Websphere, but the latest hurdle i'm facing is the ArrayIndexOutofBoundsException.

I tried to deploy the same application (a mini version) which contained only one servlet, and it was successful. But when I have multiple servlets, I get this exception. Below is my stack trace

I read a couple of other posts from people who faced more or less the same problem, but they were talking about Spring or Guava, none of which I use here. As a result, the solutions I read there did not solve my problem.

Can any one throw light on a solution? It would be helpful to a very great extent.

Additional Info:

I'm developing my project on Eclipse Kepler and using the Webshpere 8.5 plugin to deploy on Websphere application server.

Thanks, Sriram

Actually it turns out my project was indeed referencing to guava. It was using guava version 15.0. I changed the version to 16.0 and included then in my shared library.. and it solves the issue. Apologies for overlooking guava.. old have saved a lot of time !!
