ClassLoader problem when installing ear

[deejboss]

Hi,

I'm using Jboss 4. When I install ear I get this exception :

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders

Can somebody give me tips of how classloader works within an ear file.
if there is a jar file inside an ear and I want the classes in the jar file to be available to other sar and rar files within that ear file how that works ??

I have read these articles but in vain.
http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossClassLoadingUseCases
http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ClassLoadingConfiguration

my sar/jboss-service.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE server PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD MBean Service 3.2//EN" "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-service_3_2.dtd">

<loader-repository>ameriquest.dot.com:loader=storageservice.jar</loader-repository>



The classpath out here defines the root path of the server
e.g. C:\jboss\jboss\server\default\deploy
and can reach my ear file but not any jar files inside my ear file. There is some link missing where I can define my classpath for the classloader to understand the path of my jar file within an ear file. Like in weblogic
APP-INF/lib.

Please suggest .....
Thanks

Well even though nobody helped me out I have solved the problem myself --------

Create an sar file and put a llib with all the related jar files and deploy the code in the "all" configuration. Now you can call the resource adapter from a session bean.

ear
sar
-lib
--jar (which has all the resource adaptor files)
-rar (with the ra.xml file inside sar)

If anybody has any question. Reply to this link and I'll try to answer.

Thanks
