Error description
While starting an application, runtime generating the java.lang.ClassCastException, if the JAXBContext implementation was packaged insight the application. We did further investigation with EJB Container team, and it appears that this may be an issue in which the thread context class loader is incorrect when the JAXB context is created within WebSphere Application Server, causing JAXP implementations to be loaded from an incorrect class loader and resulting in this ClassCastException. The JPA component currently sets the application class loader too broadly while performing application startup processing. This needs to be narrowed to only the code that creates the entity manager factory so that the JPA component will use the built in JAXB runtime while reading persistence.xml rather than incorrectly using the JAXB runtime from the customer application.

Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IBM WebSphere Application Server V6.1 and * * V7.0 users of Java Persistence API (JPA) * * and JAXB overriding. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: ClassNotFoundException is thrown when * * a JPA application uses "parent * * last" class loader delegation and * * includes JAXB. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The JPA runtime changes the context class loader during its processing for module start, which includes parsing persistence.xml files using JAXB. The JAXB API uses the context class loader to load an implementation, which finds the JAXB implementation in the application because of "parent last" class loader delegation. The resulting implementation is not compatible, and ClassCastException is thrown.
Problem conclusion
Updated the JPA runtime to only change the context class loader while creating the container entity manager factory. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix packs 6.1.0.37 and 7.0.0.17. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
