ear service dependency declaration for ejb2 in jboss 5.1.0

rakeshjain Jan 19, 2011 11:27 PM

I am migrating my app from jboss 4.2.3 to jboss 5.1.0 . while deploying ejb module i am getting below error.

DEPLOYMENTS MISSING DEPENDENCIES:

Deployment "jboss.j2ee:module="guestmdb.jar",service=EjbModule" is missing the following dependencies:

Dependency "jboss.j2ee:service=EARDeployment,url='appmanager.ear'" (should be in state "Create", but is actually in state "** NOT FOUND Depends on 'jboss.j2ee:service=EARDeployment,url='appmanager.ear'' **").

In on eof the forums i found that JBoss AS 5.1.0 doesnt support <depends>jboss.j2ee:service=EARDeployment,url='appmanager.ear'</depends> syntax for ear service dependency.

Syntax which is working fine in jbos 4.2.3

<message-driven>

<ejb-name>guestMDB</ejb-name>

<destination-jndi-name>queue/GuestQueue</destination-jndi-name>

<depends>jboss.j2ee:service=EARDeployment,url='appmanager.ear'</depends>

</message-driven>

I could not find corect syntax for dependency declaration in 5.1.0.

What exactly are you trying to depend on?

Thanks for the quick reply.
I am trying to depend on the ear. in my case it is appmanger.ear. the syntax which i have given in above mail for depends is working fine in 4.2.3.
I guess i need to change the value of that. but not sure about the change.

Actually in Jboss 4.2.3 there is ejb-deployer.xml under default\deploy folder. In jboss 5.1.0 we dont have that file under deploy.i found 2 xmls under deployers which i think are equalent to ejb-deployer.xml in 4.2.3(Please correct me if i am wrong). ear-deployer-jboss-beans.xml and ejb-deployer-jboss-beans. Do i need to take searvice name from these files? if so, where can i find the service name in these files?

We've had a similar problem,
one reason is that since JBoss5 the url of a deployment is changed with a generated (pre or suffix ??) to avoid conflicts.
see https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBPAPP-2419
And dependencies to other EAR was not successful for us.

I move the second EAR to deploy/deploy-last ant it will be deployed after each other, this is good enough for us.
