ejb-jar.xml must either obey the right xml schema or ...

[siegfried1]

I just tried the helloworld example in the book "JBoss Seam" by Yuan and Heute.

I am running 4.0.5.GA. I get the results below. I did a google search and found someone else was getting this same error back in 2006.

It seems odd that the helloworld example in the book will not work with the last JBoss download. Is there a resolution to this?

Thanks,
Siegfried

Follow the getting started guide for installing the AS (you need the EJB3 profile from the JEMS installer)

Thanks! That works!

I think it is use HSQL. (If not, what is it using?)

(1) How do I view the contents of the database for the helloworld application?
(2) It seems to be working. How was HSQL started? I did not start it. Does HSQL come with a client? I tried to download it but I could not figure out how to run it.
(3) When I tried downloading and use SQuirreL I could not figure out the name of the database, the username, or password. And which driver do I use? The HSQLDB Server, the HSQLDB In-Memory or the HSQLDB Standalone?
(4) What do I need to change to make the helloworld app work with MySQL?

Thanks,
Siegfried
