Hi guys, sorry for the late response, and THANKS for the interest in my issue.
First of all, my JBOSS AS is installed in D:/development/jboss so no problems with spaces in filenames, I also checked my java installations etc and I have no installations with whitespace in the path.
I also think the java.naming.provider.url=localhost MIGHT be the problem, but what do I put there then? I tried to put http://localhost:1099 and the problem still remains. I saw another guy with the same problem in another forum, but without an answer.
I just tried to run the examples with maven again now with:
mvn clean install -PRunSingleTutorial
but like I said the problem still remains and I'm not able to find anywhere a URL could be missing...
Are there any other config files that I could have overseen?
I downloaded JBOSS 5 (latest version), and then the EJB3 tutorial files, installed maven and set the PATHS the way it says in the tutorial and in the respective websites.
Best regards,
Eivind
