Error Starting Tomee Plume 7.0.3, 7.1.0 with javamelody 1.68.0 through 1.75.0

This gives me following exception

org.apache.openejb.OpenEJBException: Creating application failed: [xxxx redacted xxxx]: class net.bull.javamelody.internal.common.LogbackLogger cannot access its superinterface net.bull.javamelody.JavaMelodyLogger

Important part is that stating:

you are welcome

I have removed from javamelody the automatic monitoring of @Asynchronous methods, because it was working in some application server(s) but it does not seem to be valid according to CDI spec (and according to TomEE plume). Note that you may continue to monitor CDI/EJB methods with a javamelody annotation or by configuration, see https://github.com/javamelody/javamelody/wiki/UserGuide#8-business-facades-ejb-jarxml-file-if-ejb3-or-cdi

The issue is fixed by 406639b and ready for the next release 1.76.

Meanwhile you may workaround the issue by adding a file WEB-INF\exclusions.list in your webapp with the following content:

# inherit from defaults, this is important to keep it
default-list
# ignore javamelody interceptors
javamelody-core-1.75.0.jar
