I added the dependency in org.jboss.as.standalone module import list as you suggested, however, I am still receiving a MalformedURLException unknown protocol: smb within my application.  The good news is that I now see the .index files being created without requiring a dependency to jcifs in the .ear Manifest. Before this change the .index files were only created if the .ear had a dependency on jcifs, and I can see that the list of modules in the ModularURLStreamHandlerFactory is final. Hence I assumed loading the jcifs module as a dependency on the .ear was too late.  I thought that defining -Djboss.protocol.handler.modules=jcifs would have resolved that, but I guess not. I tried adding export="true" on the jcifs dependency, but still the same Exception. I also tried to place the jcifs dependency before the org.jboss.as.server dependency to see if that would help, since it appears that is where the Main and Bootstrap classes reside, but still no luck. Is the order of the dependencies important? Am I missing something? -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/729160#729160] Start a new discussion in JBoss AS 7 Development at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]

The jcifs package does not include a URLStreamHandlerFactory since java.protocol.handler.pkgs only requires a URLStreamHandler. Hence, I created a seperate jar with a URLStreamHandlerFactory and placed it in the modules/jcifs/main directory. (see code below) In the META-INF/services directory of this jar contains a text file named java.net.URLStreamHandlerFactory which contains the fully-qualified name of this factory. In the module.xml file I added this new jar as a resource-root and removed the service-loader-resources directory from the resources list. the org.jboss.as.standalone module still has a dependency on the jcifs module. I am still getting the same MalformedURLException unknown protocol: smb. I put a break point on the createURLStreamHandler method, but it never seems to be called. public class SmbStreamHandlerFactory implements URLStreamHandlerFactory { @Override public URLStreamHandler createURLStreamHandler(String protocol) {   if((protocol != null) && ("smb".equals(protocol.toLowerCase()))) {    return new jcifs.smb.Handler();     }     return null; } } -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/729373#729373] Start a new discussion in JBoss AS 7 Development at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]

The module.xml references both jar resources. set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Djboss.protocol.handler.modules=jcifs <module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="jcifs" > <resources> <resource-root path="jcifs_wrapper.jar"/> <resource-root path="jcifs-1.3.15.jar"/> </resources> </module> standalone.conf.bat still contains: boot.log confirms this settng: jboss.protocol.handler.modules = jcifs -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/729397#729397] Start a new discussion in JBoss AS 7 Development at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]

However, I am now getting a NPE at line 881 of org.jboss.modules.Module when it is linking my jcifs module.  It appears the classFilterStack is null. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/729618#729618] Start a new discussion in JBoss AS 7 Development at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
