[seam-dev] Issue resolved with JBoss AS 7 CR1 and Seam Social

[Pete Muir]

I would somewhat expect this - WEB-INF/classes/META-INF is not a valid location for beans.xml to activate CDI services for a war - AS6 used to do it as a spec extension. Now, why the libraries are activated for the war, but the actual war isn't on AS7 is quite weird, and one for Stuart to take a look at.

It looks like a bug for me.... Should I use seam-beans.xml instead ?

One in META-INF for Seam-Config to read beans configuration and one in WEB-INF in order to having the server exposing CDI bean for JSF view. I drop the Seam-Faces and its dependency Seam-International since I don't need them and they cashed the deployment.
