web.xml parsing problem with jboss/catalina versus jboss/jet

[attila1]

Hi ,
I'm trying to deploy a simple app called hello-planet (the same one that comes with orion) on jboss and running with the following parsing problem with web.xml only when I run jboss/catalina. If I run jboss/jetty, it gets deployed without any problem . Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting the parsing problem with jboss/catalina ? Are my deployment descriptor files (jboss-web.xml and web.xml) correct ? Thanks all for any feedback.



[INFO,Default] org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Element "web-app" does not allow "resource-ref" here.
[ERROR,EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX] ContextConfig[/hello-planet] Parse error in application web.xml



Here's my web.xml :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">

<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/HelloHome</ejb-ref-name>

</ejb-ref>




<resource-ref>

</web-app>


Here's my jboss-web.xml :

Try putting the elements in the same order as stated in the DTD. It seemed to fix the problem for me.

Here's the relevant part of the DTD:

ELEMENT web-app (icon?, display-name?, description?, distributable?,
context-param*, servlet*, servlet-mapping*, session-config?,
mime-mapping*, welcome-file-list?, error-page*, taglib*,
resource-ref*, security-constraint*, login-config?, security-role*,
env-entry*, ejb-ref*)

Great, it works !!! Thanks. I moved the ejb-ref after the servlet-mapping in the web.xml and that fixed the parsing problem.
