Hi,

I'm a newbie to JBoss.

I'm having this small problem in using JBoss for deploying an Entity Bean.

I want to Deploy an Entity bean in JBoss 3.2.3 and to persist data in an Oracle 9i database. I used the following three files (ejb-jar.xml, jboss-xml and jbosscmp-jdbc.xml) to do this. I put all three files inside the META-INF folder of deployed jar file.

JBoss deployed this successfully, but it seems that it is not using the jbosscmp-jdbc.xml file I provided. It creates its own database table in my Oracle database, but do not use the name of the table given in the jbosscmp-jdbc.xml file. Further it has created the columnns in the db, on its own. I think this is the problem of jboss not using my jbosscmp-jdbc.xml file.

(I changed the standardjbosscmp-jdbc.xml file so that JBoss uses my db. I do not have problem of JBoss not accessing my db)

Can someone please please help me on this.

Thankx in advance !!!
