User development, A new message was posted in the thread "classloader cant find groovy files in ejb project.. any ideas?": http://community.jboss.org/message/528634#528634 Author : William Woodman Profile : http://community.jboss.org/people/wiggy Message: -------------------------------------------------------------- denis - thanks for responding however its still not working   I found that the server config in properties was set to workspace default and not the server deploy directory - not sure what that was doing.  However i have shifted the deploy output to goto the server/default/deploy directory.   and republished.  I can now see my project on the server in the exploded ear.  and my groovy class is right there alongside the class file from the java class. however when i run the app server i still get the error (this is the end of the error message trail)   If i read this it suggests that the BaseClassLoader cant see the Person class.  Well its there i've checked so why does it find the Node class (generated from java class file) but not the Person.class file in the same directory genderated from groovy?   I checked the source tab in the projects directory and it shows   http://community.jboss.org/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/2169/eclipse+scr...   error from deployment shows     DEPLOYMENTS IN ERROR:   Deployment "persistence.unit:unitName=forstersList-ear.ear/forstersList-ejb.jar#forstersList" is in error due to the following reason(s): java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.domain.forsterslist.entity.Person from BaseClassLoader@8c2d23{VFSClassLoaderPolicy@e776f7{name=vfsfile:/C:/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.GA/server/default/conf/jboss-service.xml       what else am i missing here? -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/528634#528634
