Order of deployment

[karstents]

Aloha!

When starting JBoss, there is always a looong ExceptionStack shown, where the entity Beans should be deployed. The problem is the connection to the database, because the J/Connector (of MySQL) is deployed later.

How can I define, that JBoss have to deploy the MySQL jar first and the entities later on?

Thanks in advance,
Karsten

if you deploy you entity beans and your mysql jar in the same directory called deployDir (for example),
you must create a subdirectory called deployDir.last where you'll move your entity beans ears.

it's a good idea to place database driver jars inside the "lib" directory (JBOSS_HOME/server//lib) b/c you're not going to hot-deploy those while the server is up and running.
