Clojurians Log v2

I'm attempting to deploy an uberjar to elastic beanstalk for the first time. I'm using the preconfigured Java platform. I have a main class compiled in my jar and working properly on my local machine, ie I can just do

java -jar MyProject.jar

Clojure 1.6.0

I bet I know

a jar often has a thing called a manifest in it

and in the manifest it might have a Main-Class specified

java -jar looks for the Main-Class in the manifest and runs that

it looks like your jar is specifying clojure.main as the Main-Class, which just starts the clojure repl

which is why you get the repl starting output in the log there

so however you are building your jar isn't setting the Main-Class attribute to whatever your main class is

My manifest.mf in the jar looks like this

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Built-By: depstar
Build-Jdk: 13.0.1
Multi-Release: true
Main-Class: main

I think I might have to do additional config related stuff for beanstalk instead of just using the regular jar

I would double check that the beanstalk jar is the same one you are looking at locally, because that looks like a jar launched with a main class of clojure.main

or look back over whatever tutorial you are looking at (I assume you are working from some tutorial because you are using clojure 1.6.0)

that's the thing though I'm not using clojure 1.6, and it doesn't appear in my deps tree via clj -Stree

you should check what java version you are using locally and in beanstalk

the multi-release thing could trip you up

Using 1.13 locally but I also have it working on another server (via the jar) on 1.8 with no issues

beanstalk is 1.8 I believe
