ZipException deploying ear

[shura_gk]

I am trying to deploy a seam application as part of a migration from glassfish to JBoss AS 7.1.1.  When I try to enable the ear file content, I get the following error:

ERROR [org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[default-host].[/tpals]] (MSC service thread 1-7) Exce

Can anybody explain what is going? 

Thanks in advance.

Are all ears/wars archived all the way or do you have some combination of exploded archives anywhere?

[shura_gk]

They are archived all the way down.

I tried deploying an ear with the jar and war unpacked - same result.

[nickarls]

Tried if Seam 2.3 does the same thing?

We finally solved this by compiling under Java 7.
