I am trying to connect JMSToolbox to an app that is driven by JMS queues running on OpenLiberty.
I am using Open liberty version 22. Specifically 22.0.0.11-202210101601
As far as I can tell, the correct documentation to follow is https://github.com/jmstoolbox/jmstoolbox/wiki/2.2-Setup-for-IBM-LibertyProfile
The installed features I have on the Open Liberty server from the documentation are as follows:
restConnector-2.0 (note restConnector-1.0 as specified in the
documentation does not seem to be available)
appSecurity-2.0
wasJmsClient-2.0
wasJmsServer-1.0
Note I was not able to install restConnector-1.0 from the documentation as I could only find restConnector-2.0.
For the extra jars, I was only able to find restConnector.jar
I could not find the other jars specified in the documentation:
com.ibm.ws.ejb.thinclient_x.y.z.jar (from <was_full_home>/runtimes)
com.ibm.ws.orb_x.y.z.jar (from <was_full_home>/runtimes)
com.ibm.ws.sib.client.thin.jms_x.y.z.jar (from
<was_full_home>/runtimes) (tested with x.z.y ==8.5.5.0+, 9.0.0.0)
Where do I get these jars from? I'm not sure what WAS Full Home means. Am I supposed to take them from a copy of WAS? Are these Jars proprietary?
Thanks,
John
"WAS full" refers to "traditional" WebSphere Application Server. You can download it following this page https://www.ibm.com/cloud/blog/websphere-trial-options-and-downloads
WAS full home is shorthand for WAS installation directory, typically /IBM/WebSphere/AppServer.
These jars are included in the /runtimes subdirectory after you installed the product.
So typical approach following above page would be:
download InstallationManager
install InstallationManager
install developers version either v9 (http://www.ibm.com/software/repositorymanager/com.ibm.websphere.ILAN.v90) or v8.5.5 (https://www.ibm.com/software/repositorymanager/com.ibm.websphere.DEVELOPERSILAN.v85)
copy required jars from the installation directory
... but that would take a while...
So alternatively you could (if you have docker), which should be much faster than whole mumbo-jumbo with installation:
pull WAS v8.5 or v9 version from here https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmcom/websphere-traditional
start container: docker run --name was-server -p 9043:9043 -p 9443:9443 -d ibmcom/websphere-traditional
locate required files:
$ cd opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/runtimes/
$ ls -la

Scope
I am trying to deploy a Quarkus based application to a Raspberry Pi using some fancy technologies, my goal is to figure out an easy way to develop an application with Quarkus framework, subsequently deploy as native executable to a raspberry device with full GPIO pins access. Below I will provide you will see requirements that I set for myself and my environment settings to have a better picture of the problem that I faced.
Acceptance Criteria
Java 17
Build native executable using GraalVM
Execute native executable in a micro image on raspberry's docker
Target platform can vary
Be able to use GPIO, SPI, I2C and etc. interfaces of the raspberry
Environment
Development PC
Raspberry Pi Model 3 B+
os: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
os: DietPy
platform: x86_64, linux/amd64
platform: aarch64, linux/arm64/v8
Prerequisites
Java: diozero a device I/O library
Docker: working with buildx
Quarkus: build a native executable
How I built ARM based Docker Images for Raspberry Pi using buildx CLI Plugin on Docker Desktop?

Building image with native executable
Dockerfile based on quarkus docs, I changed image of the build container to quay.io/quarkus/ubi-quarkus-native-image:22.0.0-java17-arm64 and executor container to registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi-minimal:8.6-902, both of these are linux/arm64* compliant.
Since I am developing and building in linux/amd64 and I want to target linux/arm64/v8 my executable must be created in a target like environment. I can achieve that with buildx feature which enables cross-arch builds for docker images.
Installing QEMU
sudo apt-get install -y qemu-user-static
sudo apt-get install -y binfmt-support
Initializing buildx for linux/arm64/v8 builds
sudo docker buildx create --platform linux/arm64/v8 --name arm64-v8
Use new driver
sudo docker buildx use arm64-v8
Bootstrap driver
sudo docker buildx inspect --bootstrap
Verify
sudo docker buildx inspect
Name: arm64-v8
Driver: docker-container
Nodes:
Name: arm64-v80
Endpoint: unix:///var/run/docker.sock
Status: running
Platforms: linux/arm64*, linux/amd64, linux/amd64/v2, linux/amd64/v3, linux/riscv64, linux/ppc64le, linux/s390x, linux/386, linux/mips64le, linux/mips64, linux/arm/v7, linux/arm/v6
Now looks like we're ready to run the build. I ended up with the following command
sudo docker buildx build --push --progress plain --platform linux/arm64/v8 -f Dockerfile -t nanobreaker/agus:arm64 .
--push - since I need to deploy a final image somewhere
--platform linux/arm64/v8 - docker requires to define target platform
-t nanobreaker/agus:arm64 - my target repository for final image
It took ~16 minutes to complete the build and push the image
target platform is linux/arm64 as needed
59.75 MB image size, good enough already (with micro image I could achieve ~10 MB)
After I connected to raspberry, downloaded image and run it
docker run -p 8080:8080 nanobreaker/agus:arm64
Pretty nice, let's try to execute a http request to test out gpio pins
curl 192.168.0.20:8080/led/on?gpio=3
Okey, so I see here that there are permission problems and diozero library is not in java.library.path
We can fix permission problems by adding additional parameter to docker run command
docker run --privileged -p 8080:8080 nanobreaker/agus:arm64
PROBLEM
From this point I do not know how to resolve library load error in a native executable.
I've tried:
Pulled out native executable from final container, executed on raspberry host os and had same result, this makes me think that library was not included at GraalVM compile time?
Learning how library gets loaded https://github.com/mattjlewis/diozero/blob/main/diozero-core/src/main/java/com/diozero/util/LibraryLoader.java
UPDATE I
It looks like I have two options here
Figure out a way to create configuration for the diozero library so it is properly resolved by GraalVM during native image compilation.
Add library to the native image and pass it to the native executable.
UPDATE II
Further reading of quarkus docs landed me here https://quarkus.io/guides/writing-native-applications-tips
By default, when building a native executable, GraalVM will not include any of the resources that are on the classpath into the native executable it creates. Resources that are meant to be part of the native executable need to be configured explicitly. Quarkus automatically includes the resources present in META-INF/resources (the web resources) but, outside this directory, you are on your own.
I reached out #Matt Lewis (creator of diozero) and he was kind to share his configs, which he used to compile into GraalVM. Thank you Matt!
Here’s the documentation on my initial tests: https://www.diozero.com/performance/graalvm.html
I stashed the GraalVM config here: https://github.com/mattjlewis/diozero/tree/main/src/main/graalvm/config
So combining the knowledge we can enrich pom.xml with additional setting to tell GraalVM how to process our library
<quarkus.native.additional-build-args>
-H:ResourceConfigurationFiles=resource-config.json,
-H:ReflectionConfigurationFiles=reflection-config.json,
-H:JNIConfigurationFiles=jni-config.json,
-H:+TraceServiceLoaderFeature,
-H:+ReportExceptionStackTraces
</quarkus.native.additional-build-args>
Also added resource-config.json, reflection-config.json, jni-config.json to the resource folder of the project (src/main/resources)
First, I will try to create a native executable in my native os ./mvnw package -Dnative
Fatal error: org.graalvm.compiler.debug.GraalError: com.oracle.graal.pointsto.constraints.UnsupportedFeatureException: No instances of java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl are allowed in the image heap as this class should be initialized at image runtime. To see how this object got instantiated use --trace-object-instantiation=java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl.
Okey, so it failed, but let's trace object instantiation as recommended, maybe we can do something in configs to get around this. I added --trace-object-instantiation=java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl to the additional build args.
Fatal error: org.graalvm.compiler.debug.GraalError: com.oracle.graal.pointsto.constraints.UnsupportedFeatureException: No instances of java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl are allowed in the image heap as this class should be initialized at image runtime. Object has been initialized by the java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl class initializer with a trace:
at java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl.<init>(ProcessHandleImpl.java:227)
at java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl.<clinit>(ProcessHandleImpl.java:77)
. To fix the issue mark java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl for build-time initialization with --initialize-at-build-time=java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl or use the the information from the trace to find the culprit and --initialize-at-run-time=<culprit> to prevent its instantiation.
something new at least, let's try to initialize it first at build time with --initialize-at-build-time=java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl
Error: Incompatible change of initialization policy for java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl: trying to change BUILD_TIME from command line with 'java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl' to RERUN for JDK native code support via JNI
com.oracle.svm.core.util.UserError$UserException: Incompatible change of initialization policy for java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl: trying to change BUILD_TIME from command line with 'java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl' to RERUN for JDK native code support via JNI
Okey, we're not able to change the initialization kind and looks like it won't give us any effect.
I found out that with -H:+PrintClassInitialization we can generate a csv file with class initialization info
here we have two lines for java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl
java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl, RERUN, for JDK native code support via JNI
java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl$Info, RERUN, for JDK native code support via JNI
So it says that class is marked as RERUN, but isn't this the thing we're looking for? Makes no sense for me right now.
UPDATE III
With the configs for graalvm provided by #Matt I was able to compile a native image, but it fails anyways during runtime due to java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError, makes me feel like the library was not injected properly.
So looks like we just need to build a proper configuration file, in order to do this let's build our application without native for now, just run it on raspberry, trigger the code related to diozero, get output configs.
./mvnw clean package -Dquarkus.package.type=uber-jar
Deploying to raspberry, will run with graalvm agent for configs generation (https://www.graalvm.org/22.1/reference-manual/native-image/Agent/)
/$GRAALVM_HOME/bin/java -agentlib:native-image-agent=config-output-dir=config -jar ags-gateway-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-runner.jar
Running simple requests to trigger diozero code (I've connected a led to raspberry on gpio 4, and was actually seeing it turn off/on)
curl -X POST 192.168.0.20:8080/blink/off?gpio=4
curl -X POST 192.168.0.20:8080/blink/on?gpio=4
I've published project with output configs
One thing I noticed that "pattern":"\\Qlib/linux-aarch64/libdiozero-system-utils.so\\E" aarch64 library gets pulled while running on py which is correct, but when I build on native OS I should specify 'amd64' platform.
Let's try to build a native with new configs
./mvnw package -Dnative
Successfully compiled, let's run and test
./target/ags-gateway-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-runner
curl -X POST localhost:8080/led/on?gpio=4
And here we have error again
ERROR [io.qua.ver.htt.run.QuarkusErrorHandler] (executor-thread-0) HTTP Request to /led/on?gpio=4 failed, error id: b0ef3f8a-6813-4ea8-886f-83f626eea3b5-1: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: com.diozero.internal.provider.builtin.gpio.NativeGpioDevice.openChip(Ljava/lang/String;)Lcom/diozero/internal/provider/builtin/gpio/GpioChip; [symbol: Java_com_diozero_internal_provider_builtin_gpio_NativeGpioDevice_openChip or Java_com_diozero_internal_provider_builtin_gpio_NativeGpioDevice_openChip__Ljava_lang_String_2]
So I finally managed to build native image, but for some reason it didn't resolve JNI for native library.
Any thoughts on how to properly inject diozero library into native executable?
UPDATE IV
With help of #matthew-lewis we managed to build aarch64 native executable on amd64 os. I updated the source project with final configurations, but I must inform you that this is not a final solution and it doesn't cover all the library code, also according to the Matt's comments this might not be the only way to configure the graalvm build.
I've created a very simple Quarkus app that exposes a single REST API to list the available GPIOs. Note that it currently uses the mock provider that will be introduced in v1.3.4 so that I can test and run locally without deploying to a Raspberry Pi.
Running on a Pi would be as simple as removing the dependency to diozero-provider-mock in the pom.xml - you would also currently need to change the dependency to 1.3.3 until 1.3.4 is released.
Basically you need to add this to the application.properties file:
quarkus.native.additional-build-args=\
-H:ResourceConfigurationFiles=resource-config.json,\
-H:JNIConfigurationFiles=jni-config.json,\
-H:ReflectionConfigurationFiles=reflect-config.json
These files were generated by running com.diozero.sampleapps.LEDTest with the GraalVM Java executable (with a few minor tweaks), i.e.:
$GRAALVM_HOME/bin/java -agentlib:native-image-agent=config-output-dir=config \
-cp diozero-sampleapps-1.3.4.jar:diozero-core-1.3.4.jar:tinylog-api-2.4.1.jar:tinylog-impl-2.4.1.jar \
com.diozero.sampleapps.LEDTest 18
Note a lot of this was based my prior experiments with GraalVM as documented here and here.
The ProcessHandlerImpl error appear to be related to the tinylog reflect config that I have edited out.
Update 1
In making life easy for users of diozero, the library does a bit of static initialisation for things like detecting the local board. This causes issues when loading the most appropriate native library at most once (see LibraryLoader - you will notice it has a static Map of libraries that have been loaded which prevents it being loaded at runtime). To get around this I recommend adding this build property:
--initialize-at-run-time=com.diozero.sbc\\,com.diozero.util
Next, I have been unable to resolve the java.lang.ProcessHandleImpl issue, which prevents reenabling the service loader (diozero uses service loader quite a bit to enable flexibility and extensibility). It would be nice to be able to add this flag:
quarkus.native.auto-service-loader-registration=true
Instead I have specified relevant classes in resource-config.json.
I have a Google Cloud Endpoints Java application that I am developing for App Engine Standard. I am unable to deploy it locally from Eclipse but I can deploy and run it locally like this:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/
mvn clean package endpoints-framework:openApiDocs -DskipTests \
&& gcloud endpoints services deploy target/openapi-docs/openapi.json \
&& clear \
&& mvn appengine:run -Dapp.devserver.host=0.0.0.0 | tee appengine.out
Now I want to deploy it to App Engine Standard. If I try to deploy it using the Eclipse plugin I get:
Reading application configuration data...

If I try to deploy it from the command line I get:
$ gcloud app deploy
ERROR: (gcloud.app.deploy) Maven source deployment is not supported for Java8 GAE project.
When I run:
gcloud config list
I get what looks like the correct value for "project".
Is there a way to deploy this application to App Engine Standard?
Thanks for your help.

When trying to PUT a Java application onto NGINX Unit it throws an error:
root#localhost:~# curl -X PUT -d#start.json '127.0.0.1:8443/config/'
{
"error": "Invalid configuration.",
"detail": "The module to run \"java\" is not found among the available application modules."
}
Using unit version 1.8.0
What could be missing here?
Apparently, the JSC module must be installed separately:
# apt update
# apt install unit
# apt install unit-dev unit-go1.9 unit-go1.10 unit-jsc8 unit-jsc10 unit-php \
unit-perl unit-python2.7 unit-python3.6 unit-ruby
After the installation, Java apps would be able to deploy.
Steps:
create new project with start.spring.io
run it localy - works
run gradle task jar
push jar to bluemix cf push demoWar.jar
Downloaded app package (20.1M) Staging... None of the buildpacks
detected a compatible application Exit status 222 Staging failed:
Exited with status 222 Destroying container
FAILED Error restarting application: NoAppDetectedError
TIP: Buildpacks are detected when the "cf push" is executed from
within the dire ctory that contains the app source code.
Try two things:
1. Use the -p command to target your deployable artifact. This would look something like cf p APP_NAME -p PATH_TO_YOUR_WAR. I usually chain my build and deploy commands so: mvn clean package && cf p APP_NAME -p PATH_TO_YOUR_WAR.
If this doesn't work then you can specify a build pack. So cf p APP_NAME -p PATH_TO_YOUR_WAR -b SOME_BUILDPACK. You can see the available build packs by calling cf buildpacks.
Hope this helps.
When deploying first time your app on cloud foundry then following command will not work
cf push TestService
you need to use following command
cf push -p TestService-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar testService
