Integration

Hi all,

I'm using 3.6 and am just starting to implement POF.  In general it has been pretty easy but I seem to have a problem with my near scheme and POF.  Things work ok in my unit tests, but it doesn't work when I deploy to a single instance of WebLogic 12 on my laptop.  Here is an example scheme:

<near-scheme>
  <scheme-name>prod-near</scheme-name>
  <autostart>true</autostart>
  <front-scheme>
    <local-scheme>
      <high-units>{high-units 2000}</high-units>
      <expiry-delay>{expiry-delay 2h}</expiry-delay>
    </local-scheme>
  </front-scheme>
  <back-scheme>
    <distributed-scheme>
      <backing-map-scheme>
        <local-scheme>
          <high-units>{high-units 10000}</high-units>
          <expiry-delay>{expiry-delay 2h}</expiry-delay>
        </local-scheme>
      </backing-map-scheme>
      <serializer>
        <instance>
          <class-name>com.tangosol.io.pof.ConfigurablePofContext</class-name>
          <init-params>
            <init-param>
              <param-value>/Bus/pof-config.xml</param-value>
              <param-value>String</param-value>
            </init-param>
          </init-params>
        </instance>
      </serializer>
    </distributed-scheme>
  </back-scheme>
</near-scheme>

I don't know if it matter, but some of my caches use another scheme that references this one as a parent:

<near-scheme>
  <scheme-name>daily-near</scheme-name>
  <scheme-ref>prod-near</scheme-ref>
  <autostart>true</autostart>
  <back-scheme>
    <distributed-scheme>
      <backing-map-scheme>
        <local-scheme>
          <high-units system-property="daily-near-high-units">{high-units 10000}</high-units>
          <expiry-delay>{expiry-delay 1d}</expiry-delay>
        </local-scheme>
      </backing-map-scheme>
      <serializer>
        <instance>
          <class-name>com.tangosol.io.pof.ConfigurablePofContext</class-name>
          <init-params>
            <init-param>
              <param-value>/Bus/pof-config.xml</param-value>
              <param-value>String</param-value>
            </init-param>
          </init-params>
        </instance>
      </serializer>
    </distributed-scheme>
  </back-scheme>
</near-scheme>

Those schemes have existed for years.  I'm only now adding the serializers.  I use this same cache config file in my unit tests, as well as the same pof config file.  My unit tests do ExternalizableHelper.toBinary(o, pofContext) and ExternalizableHelper.fromBinary(b, pofContext).  I create the test pof context by doing new ConfigurablePofContext("/Bus/pof-config.xml").  I've also tried actually putting and getting an object to and from a cache in my unit tests.  Everything works as expected.

My type definition looks like this:

<user-type>
  <type-id>1016</type-id>
  <class-name>com.mycompany.mydepartment.bus.service.role.RoleResource</class-name>
</user-type>

I'm not using the tangosol.pof.enabled system property because I don't think it's necessary with the explicit serializers.

Here is part of a stack trace:

Any idea what I'm missing?

Thanks
