[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-6261) Deployment fails while previous message implies content was fine

Deployment fails while previous message implies content was fine ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-6261 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-6261 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Components: EE Affects Versions: 7.1.1.Final Environment: Ubuntu Linux 12.10, x86_64 Reporter: Jari Juslin Assignee: David Lloyd In jboss-app.xml old style markup like this: <module-order>strict</module-order> causes the whole deployment roll back. However, the deployer first claims it's OK and then throws undecipherable Exception message adding to the confusion. It is OK to refuse to deploy because XML contains invalid element, but _not_ OK to fail to deploy and not tell that element was invalid, but instead suggest the XML was malformed, which it was not.
