Deployment problem

[dimkaz]

Hello,

I have following problem. Maybe there's anybody who can help me.

I do deployment of application application.ear, which consists of:

application.ear
|- lib.jar
|- ejb.jar
'- web.war

The idea is to be able from web application to use classes from lib.jar.

Having following:

application.xml

<display-name>TestApp</display-name>

ejb.jar



<web-uri>web.war</web-uri>
<context-root>myweb</context-root>



lib.jar



application.ear/web.war/META-INF/Manifest.mf
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Ant 1.4.1
Class-Path: ./lib.jar

After deployment in

tmp/deploy/Default
|- application.ear /DIR/
'- lib1003.jar

So lib1003.jar is a copy of my lib.jar. I invoke a jsp file from my web application using Explorer. jsp file has import of some class from the lib.jar.

Result - ClassNotFoundException.

Did I miss something ? Does anybody can help me?

Thanks,


Dmitri

Have forgotten

JBoss 2.4.3/Tomcat 3.2.3 Bundle

Try dropping the leading ./ from the jar name in your WAR's MANIFEST.MF - i.e.:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Ant 1.4.1
Class-Path: lib.jar

[joelvogt]

the ./ should be fine. Make sure though that you have a carriage return after your
Class-Path: ./lib.jar

(ie hit enter a few times).

manifest is created by ant. so I think it's not a problem. Probably all *.property files JBoss class loader ignores. I do want to know what it doesn't ignore except classes.

sorry *.properties
