Incomplete deployment listing

[Tom Griffith]

Hello. If somebody has a minute, I am attempting to deploy an ear containing one session ejb (cnf.jar), two cmp entity ejb's (cn.jar and cni.jar) and a war.

The ear (MY_EAR.ear) is packed in this way...

ROOT...

cnf.jar
cni.jar
cn.jar
web_stuff.war

ROOT/Meta-inf...

application.xml
ejb-jar.xml
jboss.xml
jbosscmp-jdbc.xml
oracle-ds.xml

I had the ear running on resin but I am trying to configure it for jboss...so those last three descriptors are kinda new to me or whatever. Anyways, my objective is to get this thing to at least try to deploy and deal with expected jndi errors (I had to strip out the jndi namespaces) and so forth at that time...is there something missing as per the "Incompletely deployed packages" error. I keep going over it and it seems this ear has everything...thank you very much for reading this and for your time.

PS The exact error from the console is...

ERROR [URLDeploymentscanner] Incomplete Deployment listing:
Incompletely deployed packages:
org.jboss.deployment.DepolymentInfo@5101b8aa { url=file:/c:/jboss4.0.1/jboss4.0.1/server/default/deploy/MY_EAR.ear

It seems to indicate the ear is missing a file or something because the error references the ear itself and not a particular class or object. Unfortunately it is so vague that I can't seem to get any kinda direction as to where to look for the problem. I've checked and rechecked everything, especially the ejb jars. Thank you very much again...

Hello. Ok, after finding and checking the server log, it appears this problem comes from this line in the log...

Could not initialise deployment: file:/C:/jboss-4.0.1sp1/jboss-4.0.1sp1/server/default/deploy/my_app.ear
org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: No META-INF/application.xml found

I checked the contents of the ear and META-INF/application.xml is right in there. Does anybody have any idea what this could be?...jboss seems to be looking in the right place (so I don't think it's some configuration thing) and the file is sitting right there. I checked the contents of manifest.mf for the ear and it is empty. I've read on a couple of websites that entries in the manifest could mess with this. Thank you for reading this and if anybody has any ideas, I'd really appreciate them. I'll keep messing with it.

It appears to be a case of case sensitivity. I was packaging the ear with Web-inf as opposed to WEB-INF...so if anybody comes across this, check the contents of your ear for WEB-INF. If it's not all caps, rename the directory to WEB-INF in Windows explorer...and although windows explorer will not display WEB-INF in all caps even after renaming it, the ear will pack with WEB-INF.
