Problem

While running Confluence under an application server such as JBoss or Jetty, Confluence fails on startup with the exception below.

2007-01-01 12:00:00,000 ERROR [org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer] Could not create deployment: file:/opt/.../deploy/confluence.war/
org.jboss.ws.WSException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.thoughtworks.selenium.outbedded.CommandBridge

Solution

Comment out the Selenium servlet.

  1. Stop the application server
  2. Open web.xml and remove the tags below 
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>SeleneseServletSpike</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>com.thoughtworks.selenium.outbedded.CommandBridge</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>

        <servlet-name>SeleneseServletSpike</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/selenium-driver/driver</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
