Custom module unable to find JDK class such as org.w3c.Node in EAP 6

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • I'm trying to deploy a .war file to EAP 6 and run into a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/dom/Node. As far as I can tell, this class exists in rt.jar that's part of Java 1.6. I've defined a module called my.module that holds JAX-WS classes. 
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.w3c.dom.Node from [Module "my.module:main" from local module loader @105d88a (roots: E:\jboss-eap-6.0\modules)]
