Could you suggest how to fix this error?

PS. The same error if I am using commons-collections4-4.4.jar (JDK8+) with small diference

Error occurred during initialization of boot layer
java.lang.module.ResolutionException: Modules java.sql and objectdb export package javax.transaction.xa to module org.apache.commons.collections4

It looks like a conflict between jar files.

Which ObjectDB JAR file are you using? Try using objectdb-jee.jar instead of objectdb.jar (from the bin directory of the ObjectDB distribution), or the objectdb.jar file from the Maven repository.

Yes, objectdb-jee.jar v.2.8.4 is resolving such run-time error, but in this case we need to include to SE based project following new EE libraries

1. javax.annotation.jar
2. javax.ejb.jar
3. javax.jms.jar
4. javax.persistence.jar
5. javax.resource.jar
6. javax.servlet.jsp.jar
7. javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.jar
8. javax.transaction.jar

It's not looking as good approach to resolve problems on objectdb side. Do you gonna to resolve these problems in SE based  objectdb.jar, do I need to raise an object DB bug ticket for this?

Could you please clarify the issue that you described in post #3 above?

The future plan is to eliminate the objectdb.jar in the bin directory and include only the objectdb-jee.jar file, which could be renamed to objectdb.jar. This is already done in the ObjectDB Maven repository. The same file should also be used in Java SE, together with javax.persitence.jar and javax.transaction.jar.

OK. Thnx for confirmation. We will use  the objectdb-jee-2.8.4.jar with following dependencies

1. javax.persistence.jar
2. javax.transaction.jar

I am also can confirm that there are no any additional libraries required for objectdb-jee-2.8.4.jar as shown in attached dependency file.

Yes. This is the preferred way to go.
