Hi everyone,

As a total newbie, this is my first post, so please be kind!

I am trying to upgrade a project which is currently running on JBoss 4.0.5 to JBoss 7.0.2 Final. I am getting some classpath issues, and it has been driving me nuts. I have read other posts regarding similar issues, but anything I have tries just simply hasn't worked.

I have an EAR file with several WARs inside. When I try and deploy the EAR file I am getting several  "Class Path entry does not point to a valid jar for a Class-Path reference" errors:
  18:03:55,991 WARN [org.jboss.as.server.deployment] (MSC service thread 1-4) Class Path entry log4j.jar in "/C:/jboss-as-web-7.0.2.Final/bin/content/Lms.ear/LmsWeb.war/WEB-INF/lib/commons-logging.jar" does not point to a valid jar for a Class-Path reference.

18:03:55,991 WARN [org.jboss.as.server.deployment] (MSC service thread 1-4) Class Path entry commons-pool.jar in "/C:/jboss-as-web-7.0.2.Final/bin/content/Lms.ear/LmsWeb.war/WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar" does not point to a valid jar for a Class-Path reference.

18:03:55,991 WARN [org.jboss.as.server.deployment] (MSC service thread 1-4) Class Path entry jakarta-oro.jar in "/C:/jboss-as-web-7.0.2.Final/bin/content/Lms.ear/LmsWeb.war/WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar" does not point to a valid jar for a Class-Path reference.

It looks like the  libraries log4j.jar, log4j-core.jar, activation.jar etc. cannot be referenced from commons-logging.jar,mail.jar and struts.jar. The weird thing is that all there jars are all in the same WEB-INF/lib folder in the WAR. I have tried adding the offending jars to the manifest classpath...no joy. Have tried to add them as dependencies (org.apache.log4j, org.apache.commons.logging etc.) in the manifest...no joy.

What am I doing wrong?

The directory structure in the WAR is as follows:

LmsWeb
     common
     css
     images
     js
     licensee
     META-INF
     test
     WEB-INF
          classes
          lib  

All these libraries (except jboss-ejb-api_3.1_spec-1.0.1.Final.jar) have been here within this structure, and the application runs fine under 4.0.5.

Any help would be appreciated!

Regards,
Ash
