Hi

I have a Seam application that uses BIRT and deploys to JBoss AS.

I created a BIRT report using the JBoss Tools Report Designer, and created a 
Hibernate ODA datasource. Ultimately, I have kept referring back to various 
versions of this reference:  
http://docs.jboss.org/tools/latest-dev/en/jboss_birt_plugin_ref_guide/html/tasks.html
 
http://docs.jboss.org/tools/latest-dev/en/jboss_birt_plugin_ref_guide/html/tasks.html

The report runs fine in Eclipse, but I get the following error when deploying 
to JBoss AS (1.6 currently).

*Table (id = 45):*
*+ An exception occurred during processing. Please see the following message 
for details:*
*Cannot find or process the org.jboss.tools.birt.oda driver's data source 
extension configuration.*
*Cannot find the ODA dataSource extension (org.jboss.tools.birt.oda).*
 *Check the workspace log file for any problems with loading the extension 
bundle and its dependencies.*

(full output here ->  http://pastebin.com/jAGSS2p0 http://pastebin.com/jAGSS2p0 
)*
*

Now I haven't quoted specific versions of the libraries I've been using. I have 
had this same error using JBoss Tools 3.2 and more recently JBoss Tools 3.3 (to 
test the latest BIRT release). And the default WebExampleViewer for BIRT runs 
just fine in my application server.

I've worked through all the items listed in these various posts, tried the 
various suggestions, and my problem still persists. 

One thing that has never explicitly been stated in the reference material, or 
these other posts, is whether or not the user is expected to implement their 
own ODA plugin (for Hibernate in this case), or whether the one supplied by 
JBoss Tools (as per the UI Report Designer in Eclipse) is sufficient for 
deployment as well. There is no *org.jboss.tools.birt.oda*.*hibernate* plugin 
that ships with JBoss Tools. Surely if the UI component (in the IDE) works, 
there is a related runtime enabling it to work when deployed to an application 
server (or wherever else it is used).

Questions:
Is the end user expected to develop their own hibernate plugin, or should this 
all be working out of the box? 

 And if so, why does this one specific problem occur so frequently, yet rarely 
is the root cause of this problem explicitly identified.

I hope someone can shed some light on this issue for me.
