Bug Report: Payara 6.2023.11 - StatelessSessionBean with OpenTelemetry annotation @WithSpan throws jakarta.ejb.CreateException

[pioneer2k]

Brief Summary

We have a StatelessSessionBean in our product that uses a scheduled method togehter with a @WithSpan annotation from the OpenTelemetry package (io.opentelemetry.instrumentation), which is now included in Payara 6.2023.11. With Payara 6.2023.10 and before we had no problems. With Payara 6.2023.11 we receive the following exception everytime the method gets triggered. When we remove the @WithSpan annotation the exception does not occur!

Reproducer

an example of our StatelessSessionBean:

import io.opentelemetry.instrumentation.annotations.WithSpan;
import jakarta.ejb.LocalBean;
import jakarta.ejb.Schedule;
import jakarta.ejb.Stateless;
import jakarta.enterprise.inject.Instance;
import jakarta.inject.Inject;
import lombok.NoArgsConstructor;
import lombok.extern.log4j.Log4j2;

@Stateless
@LocalBean
@NoArgsConstructor
@Log4j2
public class AccountingQueueProcessorBean extends QueueProcessorBase {

	@Inject
	Instance<AccountingQueueWorker> workerFactory;

	@Schedule(second = "*/30", minute = "*", hour = "*", persistent = false)
	@WithSpan
	public void schedule() {
		try {
			super.process(workerFactory);
		} catch (Exception e) {
			log.catching(e);
		}
	}
}

Hi pioneer2k. I am sorry for not coming back to you earlier.

I managed to reproduce this issue with Payara 6.2023.12.

I have escalated this to the platform development team with internal JIRA FISH-8156

I will let you know once we can proceed with the development of the fix.

Regards, Artur
