problem configuring XA Datasource in JBOSS 4.0.4

[dangelo1]

Hi,

I tried to configure an XA Datasource by copying the docs/examples/jca/mssql-xa-ds.xml

But when I tried to start JBOSS I was geeting this error:

ObjectName: jboss.jca:service=DataSourceBinding,name=repositoryDS
State: CONFIGURED
I Depend On:
jboss.jca:service=XATxCM,name=repositoryDS

--- MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM ---
ObjectName: jboss.jca:service=RARDeployment,name='jboss-xa-jdbc.rar'
State: NOTYETINSTALLED
Depends On Me:
jboss.jca:service=ManagedConnectionFactory,name=repositoryDS


in the deploy dir, I don't have the jboss-xa-jdbc.rar but I have the jboss-ha-xa-jdbc.rar.


Do I need the jboss-xa-jdbc.rar? where can I find this jar file?

Something is wrong with your JBoss distribution. The jboss-xa-jdbc.rar should be deployed by default. What version of JBoss are you using?

[dangelo1]

Its JBoss [Zion] 4.0.4.GA (build: CVSTag=JBoss_4_0_4_GA date=200605151000)

using the default server

I am not sure where the RAR ended up in your installation. If you have the HA adapter and not the XA adapter it sounds like something was moved. Can you try a 'fresh' jboss?

[dangelo1]

yep, thanks, I already got a copy of the XA adapter from another jboss install and placed it in my deploy. The datasource seems to be okay but I am now getting UnSerializable exceptions when accessing my ejbs....


The jBoss logs doesn't seem to tell me much though about which classes are not serializable...


thanks for your help anyway...

This is an EJB question. I will move this post to the correct forum.
