Hi,

I met problem when I deploy my app

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: IOException parsing XML document from class path resource [META-INF/applicationContext.xml]; nested exception is java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource [META-INF/applicationContext.xml] cannot be opened because it does not exist

Structure of my app: have 2 project: demo-api. demo-app

demo-api: contain class AppStartup, in this app I will start service in application context file.

ConfigurableApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("META-INF/applicationContext.xml");

I defined app-api to a module

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="com.lib">

    <resources>

        <resource-root path="demo-api.jar"/>

    </resources>

    <dependencies>

        <module name="org.jboss.as.clustering.infinispan"/>

        <module name="org.infinispan"/>

    </dependencies>

</module>

demo-app: have structure

demo-app

+src/main/java

+src/main/resource

  - META-INF (in src/main/resource)

  * applicationContext.xml (in META-INF)

In jboss.service of demo-app, I used AppStartup class of demo-api

I defined jboss-deployment-structure.xml in demo-app

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<jboss-deployment-structure>

    <deployment>

        <dependencies>

                 <module name="com.lib">

                <imports>

                    <include path="META-INF**" />

                    <exclude path="/**" />

                </imports>

            </module>

        </dependencies>

    </deployment>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

But when I deploy demo-app, server log thrown error

I guessed JBoss can not find applicationContext.xml in demo-api because this file lives in demo-app.

But I also configured boss-deployment-structure.xml

Could you please give me some advice to fix this error?

Thanks,
