MBean depends on EJB,

[th.krause]

I've got this error while deploying...

org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: instantiating de.SchedulerJob24h failed: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: de/ejb/session/ExpiredArticleHome; - nested throwable: (RuntimeErrorException: instantiating de.mbeans.SchedulerJob24h failed: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: de/session/ExpiredArticleHome
Cause: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: de/session/ExpiredArticleHome)

Then I try to fix the dependency

< mbean code="org.jboss.varia.scheduler.Scheduler" name=":service=Scheduler,name=SchedulerJob24h" >
< attribute name="StartAtStartup">true< /attribute >
< attribute name="InitialRepetitions">-1< /attribute >
< depends>jboss.j2ee:service=EJB,jndiName=ejb/ExpiredArticle< /depends >
< /mbean >


but it does not work.
I see some equal postings, but ... I need your help.
What's wrong?

Make your MBean deploy in a sar.
Make your EJBs deploy in a jar.
Put both of those in one ear.
Then deploy the ear.

The problem is not a dependency issue as such, but rather that there is a missing class, or a class loader issue when it sees mulitple deployed versions of the same class loaded by different class loaders.
