From the looks of it there is something odd with your web.xml..

[victor.vidigal.ribeiro]

I Think there is nothing wrong with web.xml. I can deploy my war manually in the same container. But arquillian don't work.

I saw in other forum that there is a problem with comments in web.xml.

Now, I remove all comments from my web.xml, but the failure continues.

I don't know what i can do. I'm desperate.

My @Deployment method is show bellow. Maybe it can help.

@Deployment(name = "jabot")

public static WebArchive jabotDeployment() {

final WebArchive herbarioVirtualWar = ShrinkWrap .create(ZipImporter.class, "herbariovirtual.war") .importFrom(new File("lib/jabot-herbarioVirtual-1.0.jar")) .importFrom(new File("lib/jabot-herbarioVirtual-web-1.0.war")) .as(WebArchive.class);

return herbarioVirtualWar;

}

Could you help me?

[aslak]

Could you post your web.xml?

[victor.vidigal.ribeiro]

You was right. I removed some spaces from my web.xml and now It's work.

I think that there were "invisible" caracters showed as spaces.

Thankyou very much.

Now I have other problem, but I think it's better open a new question.

Apologies for my bad english.
