Dear JBoss experts,

I have searched your forum for a simple answer to this undeployment error. An error I only get when undeploying a spring dependent webservice from the JBoss server (JBoss 5.1 + JBossWS-CXF).

In my webservice I have included a jar file: WEB-INF/lib/org.springframework.web-3.0.3.RELEASE.jar.

The complete webservice functionality is working as expected when deploying and during actual use of the webservice, but when undeploying the webservice from JBoss I get this error:

"Exception sending context destroyed event to listener instance of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener"

Extract of stacktrace:

I would appreciate any hints to where in my configuration I missed the missing option.
