    Difference between

      Hello,

      What is the difference between "jboss-4.0.4.GA-Patch1-installer.jar" and "jboss-4.0.4.GA.zip"?

      I installed the 4.0.4.GA.zip and configured it, will I be able to run the "ejb3" without any problems?

      Regards,
      Rajesh.

          jboss-4.0.4.GA-Patch1-installer.jar installs JBoss AS 4.0.4GA. It also includes EJB3.0 CR7. You should be able to run EJB3 against 4.0.4 zip distribution with no problems however it requires a few manual steps to get it running. That's why installer is the quickest way to install AS and EJB3. You should select "ejb3" profile.

          If you decide to use installer, pick up the latest drop at http://labs.jboss.com/portal/jemsinstaller/downloads

            Hello Alex,

            Thanks for the prompt reply.

            I have already installed the "zip" on my servers assuming they would run the "ejb3". I have used "default" server to create my instances.

            What are the manual steps to make ejb3 running in the "default" instance?

            Regards,
            Rajesh.

              Download EJB3.0 RC8 from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jboss/jboss-EJB-3.0_RC8-FD.zip?download and follow instructions in INSTALL.XML

                  Hello Alex,

                  I read the INSTALL.html, but as mentioned earlier, i have my instances configured and running from "default". Is it MANDATORY for ejb3 that the jboss "all" server is used?

                  can i make ejb3 running on "default" instance of jboss 4.0.4?

                  Regards,
                  Rajesh.

                    default config should work too. Let us know if you run into a problem.

                      Surprisingly the following jars do not exist in the distribution, so am unable to perform the steps 15,16 and 17.

                      15. Copy jboss-ejb3-client.jar from the lib/ directory of the distribution to jboss-4.0.x/client - jboss-ejb3-client.jar DOES NOT EXIST in the EJB 3.0 RC8 distribution
                      16. Copy jboss-annotations-ejb3.jar from the lib/ directory of the distribution to jboss-4.0.x/client - jboss-annotations-ejb3.jar DOES NOT EXIST in the EJB 3.0 RC8 distribution
                      17. Copy hibernate-client.jar from the lib/ directory of the distribution to jboss-4.0.x/client - hibernate-client.jar DOES NOT EXIST in the EJB 3.0 RC8 distribution

                      Please Alex, Let me know, whats to be done, in that case.

                      Regards,
                      Rajesh.

                        All the jars you need are available in the server/lib and server/deploy directory when linking with clients. If you downlaod the standalone RC8 version of EJB3 the docs/tutorial have ant scripts that work with the appropriate client jar classpath.
