I am trying to use ObjectBox as a server database with Spring Boot and Tomcat When i use the embedded tomcat server of Spring Boot, it works fine (running directly from IntelliJ IDEA),

But when i deploy the WAR file / exploded API to Tomcat, i get the error "no objectbox-jni-windows-x64 in java.library.path"

I do have Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 installed

Can you please help me to deploy it successfully?

The following is my build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    ext {
        kotlinVersion = '1.3.10'
        springBootVersion = '2.1.1.RELEASE'
        objectboxVersion = '2.2.0'
    }
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        maven { url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/" }
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:${springBootVersion}")
        classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:${kotlinVersion}")
        classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-allopen:${kotlinVersion}")
        classpath "io.objectbox:objectbox-gradle-plugin:$objectboxVersion"
        classpath "net.ltgt.gradle:gradle-apt-plugin:0.15"

    }
}

  • Please check if there is more error info that "no objectbox-jni-windows-x64 in java.library.path"? Do you have this: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads ? – Markus Junginger Dec 04 '18 at 13:21
  • 1. The log shows only "no objectbox-jni-windows-x64 in java.library.path" as relevant error 2. Yes i do have the Visual C++ Package Installed: 2017 - x86 and x64 along with Visual Studio Build Tools 2017 – Shripal Jain Dec 05 '18 at 14:15
  • For a temporary fix: I ran the project from IntelliJ IDEA itself as stated above, copied the DLL generated in the Project Folder to my ObjectBox Database Folder – Shripal Jain Dec 10 '18 at 14:34
  • Speaking of DLLs; might be that Tomcat might require a special setup for them: e.g. 2nd answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14018817/how-to-add-a-native-library-in-tomcat – Markus Junginger Dec 10 '18 at 15:13
  • I saw that post, can you help me out to set it up for ObjectBox? – Shripal Jain Dec 11 '18 at 16:04
  • You already have the DLL, no? Try to make it available to Tomcat (haven't touched it for a long time...). – Markus Junginger Dec 11 '18 at 17:29
