First, the directory locations are incorrect. The 'tmp' directory is a temporary, working directory. I hope that you did not place the files there. You should have placed them into the /usr/local/jboss/server/default/deploy directory. If you did place the file in the 'tmp' directory, stop the app server, remove the /usr/local/jboss/server/default/tmp, /usr/local/jboss/server/default/work, and /usr/local/jboss/server/default/data directories. Then place the EAR archive into the the /usr/local/jboss/server/default/deploy directory. Then start the app server again. Since you have the WARs embedded within an EAR, post your application.xml file. Also, post the jboss-app.xml file, if you have one. Both should be in the meta-inf directory. I assume that since you did not post any jboss-web.xml files that you don't have any (earlier you implied that you did have jboss-web.xml file). I also assume that the file names (turtle.war/web-xml, csa.war.web-xml) are typos, and that they are both actually named web.xml.
