[jboss-user] [JBoss Tools (users)] - WTP2.0.1, JBossAS-Tools-1.0.0.beta4 not publishing correctly

When I publish an EAR project from my workspace into JBoss 4.2.1 it does not publish correctly. I have tried both the WTP supplied 4.2 driver and the JBossAS-Tools supplied 4.2 driver. My JBoss runtime is at /opt/jboss-4.2.1.GA this directory tree is writable by my userid, also exists is $HOME/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp2 which is also being published too as well as. After a successful publish operation (successful from looking at the GUI, but unsuccessful from looking at the JBoss log) the following things happen: The JBoss runtime home (/opt/jboss-4.2.1.GA/data/opt/jboss-4.2.1.GA/server/default/deploy/) ends up with an exploded EAR directory (this is the name of my project with the .ear extension but its a directory not a file), inside this directory is all the other subdirectories that make up the tree, but the only file in there is that of a Utility JAR. There was no META-INF/application.xml and there is no EJB implementation JAR. In the workspace server plugin temporary area for this server instance ($HOME/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp2) I find an EAR file (which internally has my META-INF/application.xml, my Utility JAR and my EJB JAR). It also has a directory (same name as EAR but without the .ear extension) this has all 3 files I'd expect to see in an exploded EAR tree. When looking at the launch configuration for JBoss I can't see where the workspace deployment location is specified in the configuration, so I can only presume that what JBoss sees is only the file copied into the runtime home. Unlike Tomcat which can have a read-only runtime home but a read-write instance tree allowing for the sharing of the container by multiple instances in server tooling. What copies the files during deployment into the JBoss runtime tree ? Is there anyone who is actually using the server tools successfully in this way ? If so what versions of things to you have installed ? I'm using: Eclipse 3.3.1, WTP 2.0.1, JBoss 4.2.1, JBossAS-Tools-1.0.0.beta4 Thanks, Darryl View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4092394#...
