[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-3911) zipped ear files cause seam NullPointerException on deployment

From what I read in the documentation, a WEB-INF/classes/seam.properties required for deployments in JBoss AS, JavaEE? What are the other paths checked by seam-int?

zipped ear files cause seam NullPointerException on deployment -------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-3911 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3911 Project: Seam Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.0.2.SP1 Environment: Jboss 5.0.0-GA, jdk 1.6.0_07 Reporter: Adam Montague Assignee: Pete Muir Fix For: 2.2.1.CR1 Attachments: realestate-src.zip, realestate.ear, server.log A webapp using seam that is deployed as a zipped ear fails to deploy. First you get an exception like this for each war that uses seam: 15:55:08,634 WARN [URLScanner] could not read entries java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file at
