deployed war cannot find jar-files in /lib

[mathias]

Hello,

I can't get my War to work...

I have an 'exploded' war deployed in server/default/lib, called "test.war". I have web-inf with a web.xml. in the webapp root i have a test-jsp that tries to use some classes i want to be included in this app. Now here's the strange thing:

If i put the classes in a normal package structure under /classes, the JSP can find it.

But, if i jar my classes in a jar-file and put them in /lib instead, the JSP cannot find the classes anymore!

Is there something i have forgotten? Shouldn't my WAR application's classloader just load all jars in /lib automagically?

I am running 4.0 RC1 on linux.

Really thankful for pointers!

/Mathias

I seem to have the same problem.
loading my bean local interfaces and some JNDI interfaces in a beaninterface.jar

Wherever I place the Jar it does not seem to be found in my war file.
The jar file is created ffrom the bean project not the application project
this seems to be the only differences using jboss 4.04rc1
Jar files installed in WEB-INF\classes are correctly picked up
(except my bean interface)
THe jar is correctly in the WAR file and loaded in the JBOSS appication.
JBOSS complains it can not find the class during servlet load time.


I'm braking my head on finding the differences in the JAR file
none seem to be there. Files are present as I look wit ZIP
the files seem to be present




Any ideas ???

Create a jira issue with a self contained deployment that illustrates the problem. There is not enough info here to comment as to why the WEB-INF/lib contents do not appear to be seen.

OK, so according to the Issue in Jira (apparently my had already been logged, the issue i submitted got closed as a duplicate),

http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-2072

This has been fixed in "JBossAS-4.0.4.CR2" . So, newbie question - where do i get my hands on that release? I've been looking to no avail...

Cheers,
