The class which has the code getServletContext().getResourceAsStream(...) is part of WEB-INF/classes folder.

[sfcoy]

Hmm,

Some things to check:

• the class calling getServletContext().... is not duplicated in one of those EAR jars
• try without the jboss-deployment-structure.xml file
• check for typos in the path name?

hanks for taking time to help me out.

Tried all three suggestions and still unable to get rid of that error

Has anyone else come across similar problem?

The config xmls(struts config, web.xml) under WEB-INF of WAR is not visible to the Custom ActionServlet and the XML parser classes...

My ear is unexploded and the war files within it are exploded.Will that cause any issue?

[abiya]

Thanks a lot for helping me out Stephen and Jaikiran.

It worked fine when I had both my ear and the embedded wars as unexploded ones.

Thanks,

Abiya

Thanks for posting the solution. This probably is a bug then (assuming the application code isn't doing anything wrong).

[abiya]

I dont think it is application related. Because the same was working fine in weblogic and also I didnt change anything else to fix this issue other than converting both to unexploded ones.

I only just read this (properly). It's not a standard deployment arrangement and I'm not sure that JBossAS 7.x supports this. A quick look at Class Loading in AS7 does not reveal anything at all about exploded subdeployments.

I'm also curious as to what you achieve by deploying like this...

[abiya]

No specific usage as such. Earlier both my ear and wars are exploded. to automate deployment I made ear alone as unexploded and that became an issue.
