Hello there:

Hope you can help me with this one:

When im initializing the lucene index:

for (User user : users)
{
fullTextEntityManager.index(user);
}

there is the following exception:

NoClassDefFoundError: org/hibernate/event/PostCollectionRecreateEventListener
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:616)
at com.sun.enterprise.loader.EJBClassLoader.findClass(EJBClassLoader.java:688)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:303)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:248)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:

Im using the latest hibernate-core release (3.3.2) and the PostCollectionRecreateEventListener class is in that package.

I'll appreaciate the help

That's GlassFish right? Where did you put Hibernate core?
I guess it's a position problem, the classloader used in this context isn't finding it. Did you bundle hibernate with your app?
I've no experience with GF, but I guess you should replace the persistence provider in the main libraries instead.

Hello:

Well... I've figured out that in the project build path the hibernate-core jar (hibernate3.jar) was added but unchecked. So i checked it and now a the new exception:

org.hibernate.search.SearchException: Failed to instantiate lucene analyzer with type null
at org.hibernate.search.impl.InitContext.initAnalyzer(InitContext.java:90)
at org.hibernate.search.impl.InitContext.<init>(InitContext.java:38)
at org.hibernate.search.impl.SearchFactoryImpl.initDocumentBuilders(SearchFactoryImpl.java:382)
at org.hibernate.search.impl.SearchFactoryImpl.<init>(SearchFactoryImpl.java:119

I guess that is happening when i use this line of code:

QueryParser parser = new QueryParser(Version.LUCENE_30, "firstName", new StandardAnalyzer(Version.LUCENE_30));
org.apache.lucene.search.Query query = parser.parse(stringToFind);

I'm totally clueless.
Do you know if i have to do any configuration in the glassfish libraries or the application files: web..xml or persistence.xml or application.xml ?

Hello,
next release of Hibernate Search will support Lucene 3, but this is not yet ready. Please use version 2.4.1 with Search 3.1.1

Yes !!

i was using lucene 3.0.0. I changed it to 2.4.1 and i guess the problem is gone.

Thank you for your help.

When are you planning to support Lucene 3?
I have heard that it is much faster that the previous version and I am really interested in giving it a try!

Kind regards

hi,
sure we're working on that.

release 3.2 is using Lucene 2.9 for this reason: it's compatible with old APIs but having all nice new features from version 3 (including performance), so you can use it already.
If you can 1) avoid to use "COMPRESS" fields and 2) avoid the experimental DSL API, you can already drop in the new version of Lucene.
