Hi, 10x for the response In general I've managed without dependencies, though for general knowledge I used < depends / >, the problem is that both the depend and the depended MDBs are in the same configuration files (jboss.xml and ejb-jar.xml) so while deploying I get messages saying that the depended MDB is not install yet. It would be great to get response how to solve this issue for further possible needs. Arie View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4008141#...
