This code was perfectly working in older versions of Jboss but with jboss-as-7.0.2.Final its not finding the resource (giving back null). Our .ear structure is as follows. ${JBOSS_HOME}/.../deployments/xyz.ear--|                                                                                |--META-INF                                                                                |--xyzadmin.war                                                                                |--lib--|                                                                                            |--xyzjava.jar                                                                                            |--xyzmappings.jar (contains only hibernate hbm.xml files) Anyone know why is this happening? -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/635308#635308] Start a new discussion in JBoss AS7 Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
