resource-ref not allowed in web.xml

[wcn00]

I have a web app that contains a resource ref to a JCA adapter. The web.xml file contains a resource-ref element.
When I deploy the app I get a SAXParseException saying that
resource-ref cannot appear in <web-app>.
The DTD clearly allows this. Has anyone else seen this.
I'm using jboss 3.0

Hi Wendell,

Check your web.xml file carefully - the header should look like this:

<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2.3.dtd">

Note the 2.3 part. If you have it set to 2.2 or lower you will get the exception you mention.

Regards

Michael

Acckk ptewee! Fixed this. There must be a corresponding context-param for each referenced ejb and resorce-ref.
