oh one thing, I am not sure the 3.1 SD is added to the main deployer, i do not see it on the JMX view. Earlier when i had the jdk5.deployer, I was able to see it on JMX view. but I see the following in the server log file 2009-04-13 19:39:47,923 DEBUG [org.jboss.deployers.plugins.main.MainDeployerImpl] (main) Add deployment: vfsfile:/Applications/jboss-5.0.1.GA/server/default/deploy/jboss-spring-3.1.deployer/ | 2009-04-13 19:39:48,005 DEBUG [org.jboss.deployers.plugins.main.MainDeployerImpl] (main) Scheduling deployment: vfsfile:/Applications/jboss-5.0.1.GA/server/default/deploy/jboss-spring-3.1.deployer/ parent=null so I am asuming it is added successfully.
