Play framework weblogic 10.3.3.0 deployment

Question

I built a Play app and tried to deploy on weblogic using the following commands:

play war -o myApp myApp

Later I just deployed the exploded war directory to weblogic, everything worked fine but everytime I try to access a route. I get the following error:

Not found

GET /myApp/params

This is a rest service not an application with UI's. I tried to deploy on tomcat and everything worked fine but I had to make the application context root to be /. I tried the same thing with weblogic but it did not work.

Here is my route file:

GET     /                                        Application.index

GET  /sectorinformer/{telephone}  Application.show

GET     /sectorinformer/public/                     staticDir:public

*       /{controller}/{action}                  {controller}.{action}

And here is my controller code:

package controllers;

import models.InstalAddress;
import models.SectorInfo;
import play.Logger;
import play.mvc.Controller;

public class Application extends Controller {

    public static void index() {
       render();
}

public static void show(String telephone) {
    Logger.debug("Starting request");
    Logger.debug("domain: '%s'", request.domain);
    String instalAddressId = InstalAddress.getInstalAddressId(telephone);
    SectorInfo si = new SectorInfo();
    si.initializeSectorInfo(instalAddressId);
    renderXml(si.generateXmlResponse());
}

}

Thanks in advance for any help.

Unfortunately I don't have either weblogic know nor time to investigate in you interesting problem. I can only can give you some hints what I would do:

Try to connect the app with a debugger or if this doesn't work checkout the Code and build your own version, with a lot of log-statements. As far as I know every request will handled by ActionInvoker. invoke. Look how the argument comes in. The other point is the Router, which has still a lot of trace-logs. So perhaps you start first and let the whole stuff run on trace-level. Perhaps that give you some hint's where to look in more detail.

To do this start with a clean app and make no configuration tricks, specially don't run it in ROOT-Context. Just create play war myapp -o myapp.war --zip and deploy it (Don't forget --zip). Then analyze the log.

Good look.
