[Engine-devel] Problem with log4j

[Juan Hernandez]

Hello,

A patch related to log4j that I created was recently merged (commit
8ee5c9bb46bbff7a624a84a07ee6b2f9fa4ec9d4) and apparently is causing a
problem during the deployment of the engine for some developers (Moti
Asayag pointed that to me).

If you find this when deploying the engine:

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Level

Them I am to be blamed and the short term solution is to undo part of my
patch in the root pom.xml file:

--- a/pom.xml
+++ b/pom.xml
@@ -244,7 +244,6 @@
         <groupId>log4j</groupId>
         <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>

-        <scope>provided</scope>
       </dependency>
     </dependencies>
   </dependencyManagement>

I can't reproduce this myself, so please let me know if you find it. If
this is common I think that the long term solution would be to add log4j
to the list of dependencies of the affected EJB:

--- a/backend/manager/modules/beans/scheduler/pom.xml
