wrong verifier deployment error

[vrotaru]

Coming back to my post in JMX forum. I am deploying an application on JBoss (3.2.1) 3.2.2RC1 which works well in JBoss 3.0.7. The application was deployed also in SunONE 7 without problems. The mesage I receive is:
Failed to parse WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: ejb-ref ejb/EmployeeLocalHome found in jboss-web.xml but not in web.xml)
The entity bean (EmployeeBean) is succesfully deployed and both the deployment descriptors (jboss-web.xml and web.xml) contain the entries for that bean. It is actually nothing special for this bean compared with the other entity beans. In 3.2.1 I was able to use the application even if the StrictVerifier was set to true. In JBoss 3.2.2RC1 I cannot check that because JBoss complains about "javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: env not bound". It might be connected with the warning in deployment...
Any changes has been made in deployments descriptors between the two (3.0.7 and 3.2.1) releases? Any thoughts?

Please attach the relevant descriptors.

Hi Juha,

I have noticed that all the time the first bean declared in jboss-web.xml is listed with the error. In jboss-web.xml the first bean is declared:
------------------------------------------------------------------
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/EmployeeLocalHome</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>data/EmployeeBean</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>
------------------------------------------------------------------

In web.xml

------------------------------------------------------------------
<ejb-local-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/EmployeeLocalHome</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
<local-home>com.brightsoft.mobilemaster.ejb.data.EmployeeHome</local-home>
com.brightsoft.mobilemaster.ejb.data.Employee
<ejb-link>EmployeeBean</ejb-link>
</ejb-local-ref>

------------------------------------------------------------------

In jboss.xml
------------------------------------------------------------------

<ejb-name>EmployeeBean</ejb-name>
<local-jndi-name>data/EmployeeBean</local-jndi-name>
<configuration-name>Instance Per Transaction CMP 2.x EntityBean</configuration-name>

------------------------------------------------------------------

If I swap the place of the Employee entity bean with other bean then that bean is going to be flaged with that error (existing in jboss-web.xml but not in web.xml.
I must stress that the ejb part of application is correctly deployed. This error occurs when the web part is deployed.

Hmm, mismatch between ejb-ref in jboss-web.xml and ejb-LOCAL-ref in web.xml ?

This might help.... Stack trace is:

[juhalindfors]

Drop the jboss-web.xml part, the jndi name should be resolved through the link to ejb-jar.xml (no need for duplicate jndi name declaration in both jboss-web.xml and jboss.xml).

Let me know if it works.

[vrotaru]

Juha, all OK now. Those warnings were generated because of that double definition in jboss.web and jboss-web.xml. Though the application was working OK ;)
Thanks for help.

Cheers,
Victor
