Deploying EJBs into a SAR

[antdavidl]

I'm getting a WARN when I deploy EJB modules into a SAR module.
The warning is the following:

2004-04-05 12:44:17,093 WARN [org.jboss.ejb.EjbModule] Could not load the org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.CachedConnectionInterceptor interceptor for this container
javax.management.InstanceNotFoundException: jboss.jca:service=CachedConnectionManager is not registered.

This interceptor (CachedConnectionInterceptor) is used in all the EJB containers, but it uses the jboss.jca:service=CachedConnectionManager MBean that it is not still loaded at this point.
The exception is thrown in the constructor of the CachedConnectionManager object when it tries to access to this MBean via the MBeanServer.

The EJBDeployer doesn't depends explecitly on this MBean, although one of the interceptor it used (this one) depends on it. But if I explicitly declare this dependency, then the EJBLoader is not started and the SARLoader starts loading other services without waiting to the EJBLoader, and therefore the EJB modules of the SAR don't get deployed.


I think this problem should not be new for somebody. Is there a different ways to deploy EJB jars from a SAR? Is there any way to solve this dependencies problem?

P.D. If I rename the .SAR as .JAR, then it gets deployed correctly, but this is a dirty trick I'm trying to avoid!

Yes that interceptor appears to be packaged in an unfortunate location.

Simplest solution is to force your SAR to be deployed last, using the prefix deployment sorter for example.

Thanks, Juha.

But in this way, I will need to change the module name, isn't it?

[juha]

Alternatively create a deploy/deploy.last directory and drop your package there.

There probably is an explicit dependency to get around this but I'm too lazy trying to find out what it is.

Thanks Juha, I will look for this dependency.

Have the same problem, with an entity bean I tried:

jboss.j2ee:module=ConfigEJB.jar,service=EjbModule
jboss.jca:service=LocalTxCM,name=OracleDS/SourceABC
<depends optional-attribute-name="CachedConnectionManager">Jboss.jca:service=CachedConnectionManager

in
jboss-service.xml

with no luck, Don't remmember getting this Warning before jboss-3.2.3

Any ideas?
thanks
