Servlet Lifecycle event not firing in ear

[pieter.martin]

Hi,

I am running an ear application on jboss.6.0.0.Final. Both seam-servlet-api-3.0.0.Alpha3.jar and seam-servlet-impl-3.0.0.Alpha3.jar is in the lib directory. I have the following bean

public class StartUp {
     public void startup(@Observes @Initialized ServletContext ctx) {
          System.out.println("Ssssssssssssssssssssssss");
     }

The method never gets called.

I have a arquillian test case deploying a war archive and then it works.

Is this a bug or is some configuration missing?

Thanks
Pieter

Hi,

Ok I put the jars in the ear's lib which is rather silly for a servlet api. I have moved it to the both the api and impl to the war's WEB-INF/lib. Now I am getting the following exception on startup.

ERROR [org.jboss.kernel.plugins.dependency.AbstractKernelController] Error installing to 
Start: name=vfs:///home/pieter/jboss-6.0.0.Final/server/default/deploy/nakedumltest.ear_WeldBootstrapBean

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Thanks

I'm not sure about ear deployments, I haven't tried them yet.  Just out of curiosity, what is driving you to use an ear?

[pieter.martin]

I have been wondering if its worthwhile, seeing that almost all the test cases are packaged as wars? I am refactoring/upgrading an existing system that is packaged as an ear which contains a bunch of ejb modules packaged separately in the ear so decided without much investigation to go for an ear.

As long as there aren't any remote EJBs in the archive you can safely package everything up in a war now :)
