How can I solve "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation" during execute Jersey 1.6 & axis2 1.3 in one web application?

I already have soap based web service running with axis2 1.3. These day, we have a plan to develop RESTful web service using Jersey 1.6.

I made web application( war file ) with axis2 1.3 and Jersey 1.6 and try to deploy it on jboss5.1.0.

After start jboss I saw below error message.

Who can teach me what is problem and how I can solve this problem ?

Thanks

There are two versions of the javax.xml.namespace.QName class being provided in your environment:

1. The first is in Java SE 6.
2. The second appears to be provided by JBoss

I think you have problem with jar files dependencies. If you are using maven try to find out which library conflicts, I do it with maven's :~$ mvn dependency:tree That will output some lines of text like:

[INFO] [dependency:tree {execution: default-cli}]
[INFO] org.braman.app:jersey-rest-wadl:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT
[INFO] +- log4j:log4j:jar:1.2.12:provided
[INFO] +- com.sun.jersey:jersey-server:jar:1.8:compile
[INFO] |  +- asm:asm:jar:3.1:compile
[INFO] |  \- com.sun.jersey:jersey-core:jar:1.8:compile
[INFO] +- com.sun.jersey:jersey-json:jar:1.8:compile

[INFO] |  \- org.codehaus.jackson:jackson-xc:jar:1.7.1:compile
[INFO] \- javax.servlet:servlet-api:jar:2.5:provided

And from this output I can analyze the library dependencies. By the way this is sample maven pom.xml:

I hope it will help you.

I noticed this issue with Jersey 1.5 (making a REST XML feed in JBoss 5) and upgrading to Jersey 1.9 solved it.

I had a similar issue. I found out that there were a conflict between the jaxb libraries provided by jersey and the ones provided by jboss.

Here is below the relevant part of my pom.xml that solved my problem. Note I use the jersey 1.9 as @Jon state in his answer.
