I'm just trying to figure out exactly what went wrong. You created a web project - so it is deploying as a WAR - right? Then you ran generate-entities and got the error? I'll have to look into the code a bit - but I believe the generate-entities will not work with a WAR deployment because you are generating entiy beans. Try generating an EAR application, and then running generate-entities. Also what does your Authenticator class look like, and your components.xml. The error is saying that it can't find your Authenticator class/component. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4123696#...
