Hey guys, maybe you know what's going on...
I'm trying to port some J2EE apps (EARs) from weblogic to jboss. These apps are depending on each other, in the sense that all need a specific one to start first. In short, EAC.ear needs to start first, then the rest - JMS, EDESK and PUBLISH. For this I use the "deploy.last" as a parent for the EARs which depend on EAC. From the above EAR apps, only PUBLISH contains ejbs (an MDB), the rest contain just wars.
Also, I want all these to start from folders in a certain directory, instead of the "deployed" folder from JBoss home folder. For this I modified the profile.xml from JBoss, to include the respective folders.
With these settings, I ran into a strange (for me) issue. In short, if I leave in profile.xml only the EAC, JMS and EDESK apps, they start fine. If I add PUBLISH, no error happens, but none of the JMS, EDESK and PUBLISH start.
so.
Case 1 - If I have in profile.xml just eac, jms and edesk
<value>${jboss.server.home.url}deploy</value>
<value>file:///C:/10.DEV.NEW.3/modules/eac/appserver/jboss</value>
<value>file:///C:/10.DEV.NEW.3/modules/jms/appserver/jboss</value>
<value>file:///C:/10.DEV.NEW.3/modules/edesk/appserver/jboss</value>
<!--value>file:///C:/10.DEV.NEW.3/modules/publish/appserver/jboss</value-->
Then the output of JBoss is fine

I have no idea what's going on, JBoss pretends nothing is wrong, but why I don't see any of the other apps starting fine (jms, edesk and publish), no errors in any log file...
thanks for any idea,
