[ContextConfig] Missing application web.xml, using defaults

[adcworks]

Hi,

I have embarked upon installing JBoss 4 to run our intranet application which has been happily running under TC 5 for a year.

I have managed to get as far as configuring our SQL Server datasources and mail session for JNDI.

I have now copied the application iq.war into the deploy folder of the default server configuration but when I do so I get this output indicating that it could not find the web.xml file.

The war's internal structure contains WEB-INF/web.xml at the top level so I am not sure what the issue is - probably a newb issue.

15:46:08,526 INFO [TomcatDeployer] deploy, ctxPath=/iq, warUrl=file:/D:/jboss-4
.0.1sp1/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp47079iq-exp.war/
15:46:08,745 INFO [ContextConfig] Missing application web.xml, using defaults o
nly StandardEngine[jboss.web].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/iq]

If anyone has any suggestion how to get me past this issue, it would be appreciated.

Cheers, Allistair.

Make sure WEB-INF is capitalized, and the web.xml declares correct DTD and validates.

I am seeing the same issue. The application deploys perfectly in Tomcat 5.5, but when it is deployed to JBoss 4.0.2 I get the missing web.xml message. I built the WAR using the JBOSS-IDE eclipse plugin.

Did you ever find a resolution to this issue?
