deploy WAR to weblogic

[hfye]

Hi,

I'm trying to deploy this demo app to weblogic 12c but failed to start it:

INFO AutoConfigurationReportLoggingInitializer -

Error starting ApplicationContext. To display the auto-configuration report re-run your application with 'debug' enabled.
ERROR SpringApplication - Application startup failed

To support weblogic, I also made a few changes:

1. change the main application as:
   public class PetClinicApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer implements WebApplicationInitializer {...}

2. add weblogic.xml to resolve the dependency conflicts:
   <wls:weblogic-web-app
   xmlns:wls="http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app"
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
   http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/ejb-jar_3_0.xsd
   http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app
   http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app/1.4/weblogic-web-app.xsd">

   wls:container-descriptor
   wls:prefer-web-inf-classestrue</wls:prefer-web-inf-classes>
   </wls:container-descriptor>
   </wls:weblogic-web-app>

but the same WAR file can be deployed to TOMCAT and start it successfully. I also check the source code GraphQLJavaToolsAutoConfiguration.java which loads the files:
Resource[] resources = applicationContext.getResources("classpath*:**/*.graphqls");
if(resources.length <= 0) {
throw new IllegalStateException("No *.graphqls files found on classpath. Please add a graphql schema to the classpath or add a SchemaParser bean to your application context.");
}

I've figured out the cause of this issue. It's a bit odd in weblogic when deploying war file. It creates an internal _wl_cls_gen.jar file to package all files for /WEB-INF/classes folder. but the application still looking for resources in match directory like /j2ee/wl12/cp_domain/servers/cp_msp01/tmp/_WL_user/cpapps-graphql-results/g4qyhf/war/WEB-INF/classes/**/*.graphqls.

Hi, I know it's been a while, but I am facing the same problem. Did you manage to solve it? Any clues on that? I would really appreciate your help on that.
