You need to define the NukesDS datasource.

For that, create a nukes-ds.xml file in your deploy directory with the following lines:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <datasources>
 <local-tx-datasource>
 <jndi-name>NukesDS</jndi-name>
 <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/nukes</connection-url>
 <driver-class>org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver</driver-class>
 <user-name>nukes</user-name>
 <password>nukes</password>
 </local-tx-datasource>
</datasources>

I want to serve content from outside a war
-------------------------------------------------

To serve external content, you can step outside the J2EE way of doing
things and use Jetty's proprietary configuration mechanism to tell it
to serve pages from anywhere on your disc.

Add something like this to the ConfigurationElement in
jbossweb.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml, to serve static pages:

<Call name="addContext">
<Arg>/documents/*</Arg>
<Set name="ResourceBase">/docroot/</Set>
<Set name="ServingResources">TRUE</Set>
</Call>

This example maps the context /documents to the directory /docroot, so
to retrieve e.g. /docroot/myfile.html you would hit
http://localhost:8080/documents/myfile.html.

In your Jboss\server\all\ conf\jboss-service.xml
add the following. Hope this would solve ur problem.

The dirname should contain a web-inf folder with the appropriate xmls if necessary.

 <mbean code="org.jboss.deployment.scanner.URLDirectoryScanner"
 name="jboss.deployment:type=DeploymentScanner2,flavor=URL">

 <depends optional-attribute-name="Deployer">jboss.system:service=MainDeployer</depends>
 <attribute name="URLComparator">org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentSorter</attribute>
 <attribute name="Filter">org.jboss.deployment.scanner.DeploymentFilter</attribute>
 <attribute name="ScanPeriod">100000</attribute>

 <attribute name="URLs">
 <urls>
 <dir name="DirName" />
 </urls>
 </attribute>
 </mbean>
