Hinder JBoss trying to create tables in PAR

[marcwimmer]

Hi there,

I have a simple par-class. When I startup JBoss, JBoss tries to create the table the par-class represents. How can I avoid that?
At the moment I changed the owner of the table, so that JBoss cannot destroy or create the table.

Thanks for your replies,
Marc

if you do not want that JBoss create and drop tables every time your par is deployed/undeployed you have to change the property "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" in your persistence.xml.

Possible values are: validate | update | create | create-drop

The remcommended value is "update", which has the same effect as create, but your entries won't disapear ;)

But you can not completly avoid that the table is created or updated when the par-archive is deployed (loaded) as far as i know.
