Can I Place My JAR Archives in the $JBOSS_HOME/lib Directory?

No. This directory only contains JAR archives needed to instantiate the JBoss microkernel. Any additional JAR archives placed in this directory will be ignored. You should place your JAR archives into a configuration specific

$JBOSS_HOME/server/<config-name>/lib

directory instead.
