I have an application client set up to send a logging message over  a bus using a logback JMSQueueAppender.  Logback version is 0.9.24 and slf4j version is 1.6.1.

This is running on a Websphere 7.0 server in Rational Application Developer 7.5.

I've tested the bus and queue with a simple text message using the RAD Universal Test Client and that works fine, so at least the foundation is solid.

When I log a message to the message queue, I wind up with the following stack trace under a wide variety of attempts:

[8/11/10 14:44:16:223 EDT] 0000002b SystemOut     O Exception CWSIA0122E: An exception occurred deserializing a message, exception: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.LoggingEventVO.

This always happens when trying to get the message object out of the message in the onMessage code in my message driven bean. For example, the stack dump was generated at the event = . . . line in the code below:

                        if (msg instanceof ObjectMessage){
                                ObjectMessage objectMesssage = (ObjectMessage) msg;
                                System.out.println("Got ObjectMessage");
                                event = (ILoggingEvent) objectMesssage.getObject();
                        }

I have the logback classic jar on my classpath successfully because I use a number of other classes from it in my code.

If anyone can help with this, I would appreciate it. I can provide additional information as needed.

Thanks,

Merritt Derr
