I discovered that when I restart the server and I have the MBean in the deploy folder, the MBean gets deployd right away without waiting for any depends to be deployed. What am I doing wrong? Here is the jboss-service.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | | <server> | <mbean code="concept.jmx.Checker" name="concept:jmx=concept.jmx.Checker"> | </mbean> | <depends> | jboss.j2ee:jar=concept.jar,name=EntityServiceBean,service=EJB3 | </depends> | <depends>persistence.units:unitName=proof</depends> | </server> View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3974118#...
