Hi

   I have an EAR which is working fine in Jboss 4.2.3.

   Please find the Classloading settings and EAR structure for Jboss 4.2.3 below

      1) This Ear contains 2 WAR(assume warone, wartwo). All the jar files are located under EAR folder. There is no Jars under WAR/lib folder for both the wars.

      2) Both the WAR's MANIFEST.MF file contains reference to jars.

     3) warone's jboss-web.xml file contains below entry

          <class-loading java2ClassLoadingCompliance="false">

              <loader-repository>

                   warone:archive=warone.war

                   <loader-repository-config>java2ParentDelegation=false</loader-repository-config>

              </loader-repository>

         </class-loading>

    4) wartwo's jboss-web.xml file contains below entry

          <class-loading java2ClassLoadingCompliance="false">

              <loader-repository>

                   wartwo:archive=wartwo.war

                   <loader-repository-config>java2ParentDelegation=false</loader-repository-config>

              </loader-repository>

         </class-loading>

   5) there is no EAR class loading setting for Jboss 4.2.3

  Please find the Jboss 5.1.0 class loading setting below

      1) This Ear contains 2 WAR(assume warone, wartwo). All the jar files are located under EAR folder. There is no Jars under WAR/lib folder for both the wars.

      2) Both the WAR's MANIFEST.MF file contains reference to jars.

     3) warone's jboss-classloading.xml file contains below entry         

             <classloading xmlns="urn:jboss:classloading:1.0"

                    domain="warone"

                    parent-domain="ear"

                    export-all="ALL"

                    import-all="true"

                    parent-first="false">

               </classloading>

    4) wartwo's jboss-classloading.xml file contains below entry          

               <classloading xmlns="urn:jboss:classloading:1.0"

                    domain="wartwo"

                    parent-domain="ear"

                    export-all="ALL"

                    import-all="true"

                    parent-first="false">

               </classloading>

   5) EAR class loading setting for Jboss 5.1.0 on ear/meta-inf/jboss-classloading.xml

          <classloading xmlns="urn:jboss:classloading:1.0"

               domain="ear"

               parent-domain="ear"

               export-all="ALL"

               import-all="true"

               parent-first="false">

          </classloading>

But this setting is not working for my application, My application is not coming up, Deployment is failed. what other setting I need to do?
