And given this part of the stack:   at org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer.makeLocalCopy(MainDeployer.java:990)         at org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer.init(MainDeployer.java:673)         at org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer.deploy(MainDeployer.java:631)   I would say that it is copying the packaged archive files from the deploy directory to the tmp directory. -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/528913#528913
