[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & DEPLOYMENT] - Deployment classpath issue in EAR

[johndubchak]

Hi,

I have an EAR file that is structured like this:

EAR
 | -> META-INF
 |       | -> application.xml
 | -> WAR
 |       | -> META-INF
 |               | -> MANIFEST.MF -> Class-path: config.xml
 |       | -> WEB-INF -> lib/classes etc
 | -> depA.jar
 | -> depB.jar
 | -> config.xml

The war contains a servlet that is loaded on startup.  The servlet instantiates a class from depA.jar that uses a framework-type of class from depB.jar that (ideally) reads, and parses, the config.xml file.

However, the deployment produces a FileNotFoundException indicating no such file or directory.  Here is a snippet of the stacktrace:

18:35:44,233 ERROR [FileUtils] java.io.FileNotFoundException: /config.xml (No such file or directory)
18:35:44,235 ERROR [STDERR] org.dom4j.DocumentException: Error on line -1 of document  : Premature end of file. Nested exception: Premature end of file.

18:35:44,237 ERROR [STDERR] 	at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.addChild(ContainerBase.java:770)

I even included a Class-path entry in the MANIFEST.MF, for config.xml,  in depA.jar and (for good measure) in depB.jar - still no luck.

What have I messed up with this configuration?

Thanks for any help,
John
