I've been trying to get lightadmin up running with my wildfly 8.1 setup. I've got a wildfly 8.1 running with entities which i would like to display in a UI. I've got no UI/web in the wildfly prior to trying to integrate lightadmin.

Im using maven into which i've added the following sections (as shown in http://lightadmin.org/getting-started/)

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.lightadmin</groupId>
        <artifactId>lightadmin</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.0.RC1</version>
    </dependency>

and

    <repository>
        <id>lightadmin-nexus-releases</id>
        <url>http://lightadmin.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases</url>
        <releases>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy>
        </releases>
    </repository>

My (new) web.xml (in my persistence.xml i've got )

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="3.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" 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/web-app_3_0.xsd">
<context-param>
    <param-name>light:administration:base-url</param-name>
    <param-value>/admin</param-value>
</context-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>light:administration:security</param-name>
    <param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>light:administration:base-package</param-name>
    <param-value>dk.test.business.batchjobs</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>classpath:/META-INF/persistence.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

My entity which i would like to display in the ui

package dk.test.entities.batchjobs;

import javax.persistence.*;
import java.sql.Timestamp;
@Entity
@Table(name = "JOB_EXECUTION")
public class JobExecution {
....
}

My AdministrationConfiguration class 

package dk.test.business.batchjobs;

import dk.test.entities.batchjobs.JobExecution;
class JobAdministration extends AdministrationConfiguration {
....
}

My (first) problem is that im unable to extend AdministrationConfiguration and i cant figure out why ?!?

Any hints ??

  • What do you mean by "unable to extend AdministrationConfiguration"? Do you get a compiler error? Any details? – Harald Wellmann Sep 26 '15 at 14:03
  • Looking at the lightadmin website, they're only talking about Spring (Boot), not Java EE application servers. What makes you think this would run on WildFly or any other app server? – Harald Wellmann Sep 26 '15 at 14:05
  • I know that JEE is not mentioned on lightadmin's website but i still wanted to try since it seems the fastest and easiest way to get a view of your entities, almost without doing any ui yourself. You're supposed to extend AdministrationConfiguration but its simply unknown - unknown symbol. – jka_dk Sep 27 '15 at 20:24
  • What's the error? `unknown - unknown symbol` isn't very helpful. Do you have a stack trace or anything? – James R. Perkins Sep 28 '15 at 17:38
  • Its a compile error. The AdministrationConfiguration is unknown in classpath. I guess its a maven problem or maybe its just not suited for wildfly. – jka_dk Sep 28 '15 at 21:19
  • I've abandoned this framework since theres absolutely no activity on forum and very few if anybody knows about it. Just dont know how i close this question – jka_dk Sep 30 '15 at 10:34

Use the apache incubator project instead apache batchee Works like a charm - only needs a maven dependency and your up running
