No beans in the JNDI view

[lageorge]

Hi everybody,

I have this problem with JBoss 3.2.1 running on jdk 1.4.2.03.
I use ant to compile&deploy one war file and a jar file under server/default/deploy.
The two files ejb-jar.xml and jboss.xml are in the correct place under META-INF directory in my jar file.

The problem is : when I start the server, I can't see on the console that my EJB's contained in the jar file are being deployed on the server.
Also I started the Jboss management console, but there is none of my EJBs in the JNDI view or the beans page.

On the client I load the jndi.properties file, but when I lookup an EJB I get an NameNotFoundException, which is normal, because the beans are not deployed.

Please help me on this topic - why my beans are not being deployed on server?

Thanks for helping,
George

Are you sure that your jar file is being put into the correct deploy folder?

hi darran,

I'm sure my jar is under JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy.

Also, I have another .war file that is also there, and its context is being created ok, and it can be accesed.

It only seems to be a problem with the jar file.I checked the server log and I can't see any error.

Thank you for giving any thoughts,
George

Read the server.log even if there are no errors in it.
Is you jar being picked up by a deployer? Which deploy is serving your jar? Really no errors in the log during deployment? Then the directory used is not a watched by your server. Did you change the configuration of the deployers (located in conf/jboss-service.xml)?
You probably want to configure log4j using the TRACE level for package org.jboss.deployment (an example is within conf/log4j.xml).
I bet, JBoss (out of the box) will pick up every jar in the deploy directory when the sever starts. In fact, JBoss tries to deploy everything, believe me ;-)

When the servers starts and tries to deploy my .jar (ejb-angest.jar), there is the following error:

ERROR [URLDeploymentScanner] MBeanException: Exception in MBean ope
ration 'checkIncompleteDeployments()'
Cause: Incomplete Deployment listing:

It is not a problem with the EJB deployer, because it is configured ok in jboss-service.xml, and other jar I have from another project it is getting deployed ok on the same server configuration.

Please, any ideea would be helpful
Thank you,
George

I found out what was the problem;
The ejb-jar.xml and jboss.xml files inside my jar had the .XML extension (with uppercase).

Sorry for bothering
