Where do you get the warURL? Here? - http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4123146 Who uses WebMetaDataModifier.PROPERTY_GENERATED_WEBAPP? Or what is its purpose? You don't need to create whole new deployment. You probably just need to add another deployer in the chain of deployers that modify WebMetaData/JBossWebMetaData, like Scott's MergedJBossMetaDataDeployer does. e.g. pseudo chain :-) 1) Deployer that creates WebMD/JWebMD (usually some parser) 2) MergedJBossMetaDataDeployer that merges JBoss specific inputs with common one's 3) Your modifier deployer that adds WS specific info 4) TomcatDeployer that turns WMD/JWMD into ServiceMetadata 5) Real ServiceDeployer There are of course other deployers in that chain, but those should not be relevant for you.
