Hi, http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBIDE-2190 is one of those things you just don't want to see before going GA. We had QA reporting that they could not deploy and run an Ear application since it would throw an "no application context" exception. I could not reproduce it and rejected it a couple of times - until they kept saying new builds did not help etc. etc. It turns out I can reproduce it, but *only* if the deployment starts with a captial letter(!) SeamEear breaks seamEar works. MyApp breaks myApp works. You can "fix" it by removing jboss-seam.jar from the MANIFEST.MF but that makes zero sense since that is actually required/legal by spec since that is what defines the classpath. Pete thinks it is something inside jbossAS that is causing this, but what I don't understand is why it works fine with Seam 1.2, but fails on Seam 2.0.1 and Seam 2.0.2. Is there anyone who has an idea why seam suddenly starts failing because the first letter is a captial letter ? (note: all references inside descriptors is the exact same casing) /max _______________________________________________ seam-dev mailing list seam-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/seam-dev
