how to package sar in ear file

[john_woo]

Hi,

my.sar is working properly if copying it into /deploy, but I want to package it into a ear file. the way what I did was:

in /META-INF/
jboss-app.xml:
<jboss-app>

sche.sar

</jboss-app>

application.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>


my.sar



but after copying this my.ear into /deploy, jboss complained:

org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Service archives must be in jboss-app.xml
...

Can any help?

I'm no expert on jboss but this is what I did. I don't have any jboss-app.xml files, but in my application.xml file I have an entry like this:

<module>
 <ejb>my_service.sar</ejb>
</module>

The .sar just has the usual jboss-service.xml file in META-INF. I am running 4.0.3SP1 with EJB3RC2

Hope this helps.

I usually do my.sar instead of in my application.xml

woops, that didn't come through very well, I wanted to write this:

I'm using <connector> instead of <ejb>

in application.xml

I just checked something and apparently the right way to do it in JBoss is to use jboss-app.xml

Example:

...
 <!-- The service element specifies a service archive (SAR) to deploy.
 <module>
 <service>external.sar</service>
 </module>
...
