Hi,

I am trying to make a service mbean depend on a singleton stateless session bean by configuring in jboss-service.xml using <depends> in wildfly AS 8 but getting the below error:

ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation] (Controller Boot Thread) JBAS014613: Operation ("deploy") failed - address: ([("deployment" => "TestEAR.ear")]) - failure description: {"JBAS014771: Services with missing/unavailable dependencies" => [
"jboss.mbean.service.TestService.start is missing [jboss.mbean.service.\"jboss.j2ee:ear=TestEAR.ear,jar=module-A.jar,name=TestConfig,service=EJB3\".start]",
"jboss.mbean.service.TestService.create is missing [jboss.mbean.service.\"jboss.j2ee:ear=TestEAR.ear,jar=module-A.jar,name=TestConfig,service=EJB3\".create]"

Please find below the details on the code employed: Please help me to resolve the error. Many thanks.

project structure

TestEAR (ear)

--- module-A (ejb jar containing singleton stateless session bean)
--- module-B (jar containing service mbean)
--- meta-inf/jboss-service.xml

singleton stateless session bean (under module-A JAR)

@Local(TestLocal.class)
@Resource(name="TestConfig", mappedName="java:/ConnectionFactory")
public class TestConfig {
... code ...
}

jboss-service.xml (under meta-inf folder in TestEAR.ear)

<server>
<mbean code="com.test.TestService" name="TestService">
<depends>jboss.j2ee:ear=TestEAR.ear,jar=module-A.jar,name=TestConfig,service=EJB3</depends>
</mbean>

TestService.java (MBean) (under module-B JAR)

public class TestService extends ServiceMBeanSupport implements TestMBean {
protected void startService() throws Exception {
...code...
}
protected void stopService() throws Exception {
...code...
}
protected void createService() throws Exception {
...code...
}
protected void destroyService() throws Exception {
...code...
}
}

TestMBean.java (MBean interface) (under module-B JAR)

public interface TestMBean extends org.jboss.system.ServiceMBean { }

Thanks.
