JBoss Wildfly with Apache Camel: first unsuccessful test

Today, I tried to setup the Wildfly Camel integration. Unfortunately, I was not successful. Please see what I have tried.

For my tests I used Wildfly 8.0.0.Final and the Wildfly Camel integration installer 1.0.0.Alpha1.

Step 1: Download

Download the Wildfly Camel installer from http://sourceforge.net/projects/jboss/files/WildFly-Camel/1.0.0.Alpha1/

This will download the installer file wildfly-camel-installer-1.0.0.Alpha1.jar

Step 2: Install

> cd wildfly-8.0.0.Final/
> java -jar wildfly-camel-install-1.0.0.Alpha1.jar

This will install among others all necessary jars in the modules directory and the standalone camel configuration file standalone/configuration/standalone-camel.xml.

Step 3: Running

>  cd bin
> ./standalone.sh -c standalone-camel.xml

 This will produce following error:

[521]% ./standalone.sh -c standalone-camel.xml

That's too bad.  Obviously, the XML configuration file standalone-camel.xml created by the installer meets not the schema expected by the final Wildfly 8.0.0 version. It turns out that the Netty connector definition is mal-configured.

Step 4: Extending standalone.xml

Try to fix the configuration starting with the default standalone.xml file.

Adding Camel extension:

<extension module="org.wildfly.camel" />

Adding subsystem with simple Camel context:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:camel:1.0">
    <camelContext id="system-context-1">
         &lt;route&gt;
             &lt;from uri="direct:start"/&gt;
             &lt;transform&gt;
                 &lt;simple&gt;Hello #{body}&lt;/simple&gt;
             &lt;/transform&gt;
         &lt;/route&gt;      
    </camelContext>
 </subsystem>

Starting Wildfly as described in Step 3 leads to following error message in the console:

19:27:30,306 ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 28) JBAS014612: Operation ("add") failed - address: ([("subsystem" => "camel")]): java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.as.naming.service.BinderService.getManagedObjectInjector()Lorg/jboss/msc/inject/Injector;

Step 5: Giving up...

The Wildfly Camel integration sounds interesting. However, it seems not really ready for use. To be continued...
