JBoss is giving the following two errors when deploying an Entity Bean using MySql as the data source. I can send any additional configuration files you wish to see. I do have an application.xml file in the location where JBoss indicates the file is missing.

In reference to the first error, I did a search within the configuration files to find where JBoss might be requesting the "30.mysql-ds.xml" file and found no file calling for such a file. There is a "mysql-ds.xml" file in the location where JBoss says it is looking for the "30.mysql-ds.xml" file.

Here are the log file errors from JBoss. Thank you for any assistance. I have been working on this diligently for two grad school assignments but am stymied with the projects due next Monday. I've researched JBoss and MySql issues for a week now. Appreciate any direction.

Regards

Betty

I read that I can use the getConnection(user,pswd) for login without defining a security domain in the login-config.xml, but that if I did define one, it would take precedence. As you can see, I have not done so.

Thanks to anyone who can read through all this and assist.



If I do need to create an entry in login-conf.xml,I would appreciate some clarification on the entries. The module-opion name of "principal" - how is that created in the database? I assume the username and password are those I use in my getConnection request. I guess I don't understand the connection between the login-conf and my application. My next class is a database admin class; but, meanwhile, I'm a bit rusty and have been looking on the web but not finding information aout the simple things sometimes.

A message at http://junlu.com/msg/36941.html indicates I do not have to have a login-conf.xml entry for MySql, but some seem to think I cannot accomplish the deployment without one. As always there are many paths to go down.

Thanks again,

Betty
