Hmm, I can't think of what's wrong then. By the way, how exactly are you deploying this application? And from where are you getting the output of these commands? From the JBOSS_HOME/standalone/deployment folder? You mentioned earlier that you are using an IDE. What happens if you keep aside the IDE and instead start the server manually and deploy (a clean version of) the application manually by placing it in JBOSS_HOME/standalone/deployment folder?
