Howdy, I have an ear deployment as such: | META-INF/ | META-INF/MANIFEST.MF | x.rar | y.jar | META-INF/application.xml I am having a problem deploying a RAR and and EJB-JAR in an EAR deployment. From above, if I deploy the RAR and EJB-JAR seperately, no problems ... the EJB-JAR is a message endpoint for the RAR, so I know this is set up properly. The problem is when all in an EAR, I get the following error when looking at JBoss logs: (Caused by: javax.management.InstanceNotFoundException: jboss.jca:service=RARDeployment,name='x.rar' is not registered.) Following the stack trace, it looks like the RAR is being deployed first, then the EJB-JAR is trying to be deployed. The funny or odd thing is that after that error is shown in the logs, I get a 'start' call on my Resource Adapter in the RAR. I think I read from the JCA 1.5 spec that a RAR isn't considered 'deployed' until 'start' is successfully returned? So, my question is how do I make the EJB-JAR 'completely' dependent on the deployed RAR? Here's my applicaiton.xml: | <application> | <display-name>whatever</display-name> | <module> | <connector>x.rar</connector> | </module> | <module> | <ejb>y.jar</ejb> | </module> | </application> View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4207061#...
