HASingletonDeployer barrier unresolved in 5.0CR2

[huberth]

I'm having trouble getting my singletons to work after migrating to 5.0 (from 4.2.1).

I have the prescribed @Depends("jboss.ha:service=HASingletonDeploy,type=Barrier") on my beans (MDB, Mgmt, doesn't matter) but at startup I get:

*** CONTEXTS MISSING DEPENDENCIES: Name -> Dependency{Required State:Actual State}

jboss.j2ee:ear=tpa.ear,jar=tpaplatform.jar,name=TopologyDiscoveryListener,service=EJB3
 -> <UNKNOWN jboss.j2ee:ear=tpa.ear,jar=tpaplatform.jar,name=TopologyDiscoveryListener,service=EJB3>{Described:** UNRESOLVED Demands 'jboss.ha:service=HASingletonDeployer,type=Barrier' **}

I can see the barrier service in the JMX console after startup.

I've also tried starting up without my ear deployed, then hot-deploying it after I verify that the barrier has shown up in the JMX console, but I get the same error.

Note that the particular ones I'm trying now used to be deployed in the deploy-hasingleton directory under 4.2.1, but have been updated to use the barrier method instead. Under 4.2.1 I had many other beans using the barrier method with no problems, however.

Has something changed in 5.0 with regard to singletons? I haven't found anyone else having such problems so I suspect there's something I'm doing wrong here.

After playing around with a couple xml files, then restoring them both, I'm no longer able to reproduce this. In my playing around I also moved stuff out and back into the deploy directory, but all that, too, was restored.

Not sure whether directory order might affect the outcome, but I tried reconstructing the deploy directory in various orders, none of which recreated the problem either.
