Error while deploying from Eclipse to JBoss

clarif Jan 2, 2006 12:15 PM

Hi everybody,

Happy new year to the JBoss community members ;-)

I am facing a new issue since a few hours (it was running fine before). When trying to deploy from Eclipse (3.1.1 with JBossIDE 1.5RC2) to a JBoss app server (4.0.3SP1) I get an "[Tomcat5] Problem in init " error. It seems that the war file is not correctly built by the ant task in Eclipse. Below is the trace of the error. Does anyone know this issue and can provide a solution/workaround?

Thanks in advance,
Fabrice.

1. Re: Error while deploying from Eclipse to JBoss

Just found the solution:

A / was at the begining of a target prefix in the ant file. This was building an incorrect war file.

The line was (note the / beofre 'WEB-INF':
<zipfileset dir="bin" prefix="/WEB-INF/classes" includes="**/*Servlet.class"/>

instead of :
<zipfileset dir="bin" prefix="WEB-INF/classes" includes="**/*Servlet.class"/>
