Deployment of exploded war failing...

[rintin]

Hi all,

It appears my attempt to deploy an exploded war is failing. My jboss-service.xml file contains the following URL entry:

<attribute name="URLs">
 deploy/, /depot/trunk/main/webapp.war/
 </attribute>

The webapp.war directory contains a lot of images and html pages. The JarDeployer of JBoss seems to go crazy and deploy all of them as Jar file. Is there any reason why the JarDeployer would be trying to grab every single file from there? Shouldn't the deployment of the webapp simply read the web.xml and be done?

The message I see is:

21:05:50,703 WARN [JARDeployer] Failed to add deployable jar: file:/C:/depot/XXX/main/config/jboss/XXX/tmp/deploy/tmp52559x.js

Then I see a ton of "java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file" messages

Thanks for the help.

The deployment scanner doesn't point to war files/directories, it points to directories containing deployable packages (like a war file or war directory) that you want it to scan. You should use "/depot/trunk/main/" instead.
