How to deploy *-ds.xml?

[juergen.zimmermann]

Using JBoss 4.2.3 I had a SAR archive with a deployment file hska-ds.xml. Everything was working fine.

Using JBoss 5.0 I created a toplevel JAR archive inside an EAR archive. The JAR archive just contains the former hska-ds.xml. However, I get this stacktrace. Any hint is appreciated!

Are you sure the -ds.xml is not being deployed from some other place too? Can you post the entire console logs?

[juergen.zimmermann]

There is no other place.

Here is the console listing:

[jaikiran]

That looks strange. In the meantime, remove the -ds.xml from the jar and try placing it at the root of the ear and add a jboss-app.xml in the META-INF of the EAR with the following entry:

<jboss-app>

 <module>

 <service>hska-ds.xml</service>

 </module>


</jboss-app>

[juergen.zimmermann]

OK, this way it works.
