Seam 2.2, AS 5.1 continuous redeploy

earnest.dyke Dec 17, 2009 8:28 PM

Greetings all,

I have a fairly simple app, deployed as an exploded EAR that I am trying to migrate from AS 4.2/Seam 2.0 to AS 5.1/Seam 2.2. When I start the server using Ecliple, the app appears to deploy correctly. No error messages in the log at least. After a few seconds, the app is undeployed and deployed again. This will go on until I stop the server.

Anyone experienced this? Any ideas as to what could be causing this behaviour?

Thanks in advance for any and all responses.

Earnie!

As happens 90% of the time with me, 5 minutes after I post a question I find the answer. Turns out this is a bug in AS 5.1. If there are any files other than .xml in the WEB-INF of your war, AS will go into this continuous deploy loop. There was a file .faces-config.xml.jsfdia that was placed in WEB-INF when I created the project and when I removed that things went to working as expected (i.e. a single deloyment).

Earnie!

I've got the same feature when configured SEAM project (runtime version 2.2.0) with BIRT facet.
In this case the prj.ear/prj/war/WEB-INF contains 'viewer.properties' file (it is not XML) and this goes to infinite deploy-redeploy LOOP !

I wrote about this problem in my blog (portuguese):
