Why is Tomcat looking for jaxb jars in the wrong places?

I'm running Tomcat 9.0.64 in Spring Boot 2.7.1. I'm including 3 war files as classpath resources and adding them to Tomcat at runtime:

@Bean
public TomcatServletWebServerFactory servletContainerFactory() {
    return new TomcatServletWebServerFactory() {

        @Override
        protected TomcatWebServer getTomcatWebServer(Tomcat tomcat) {
            new File(tomcat.getServer().getCatalinaBase(), "webapps").mkdirs();

            try {
                tomcat.addWebapp("artemis-plugin", new ClassPathResource("artemis-plugin.war")
                        .getFile().toString());
                tomcat.addWebapp("activemq-branding", new ClassPathResource("activemq-branding.war")
                        .getFile().toString());
                tomcat.addWebapp("artemis-console", new ClassPathResource("artemis-console.war")
                        .getFile().toString());
            }
            catch (IOException e) {
                throw new RuntimeException(e);
            }
            return super.getTomcatWebServer(tomcat);
        }
    };
}

At startup, I'm getting this in the log:

Failed to scan [file:/Users/jeremyross/.m2/repository/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-core/2.3.0/jaxb-api.jar] from classloader hierarchy
Failed to scan [file:/Users/jeremyross/.m2/repository/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-impl/2.3.0/jaxb-core.jar] from classloader hierarchy

Here's an example stack trace:

Why is it looking for jaxb-api.jar in the jaxb-core directory? Same for jaxb-core.jar in the jaxb-impl directory.

TL;DR you need to set the scanManifest attribute of the StandardJarScanner to false.

As of Tomcat 9.0.0-M5, by default the StandardJarScanner scans the manifest for additional classpath entries and tries to scan any JARs it finds. This was a fix for Bug 59226.

As of Tomcat 9.0.0-M11, this behaviour was made configurable via the scanManifest attribute. This was a fix for Bug 59961.

The jaxb-core.jar file contains a classpath reference to jaxb-api.jar hence Tomcat looks for it in the same directory as the jaxb-core.jar file.

The jaxb-impl.jar file contains a classpath reference to jaxb-core.jar hence Tomcat looks for it in the same directory as the jaxb-impl.jar file.
