[JBoss-user] setup classpath problem in ear that should include a folder of the ear

[Stephan . Frind]

Hi,

I am trying jboss 3.0.6

I have the following ear structure

my.ear
        props                                <--- directory that should be included in classpath
                some.properties
        myejb.jar
        somelib.jar
        META-INF
                application.xml


MANIFEST.MF of myejb.jar looks like this
Class-Path: props somelib.jar


Everything seems to work except that JBoss does not like a folder as a classpath entry
10:34:47,728 WARN  [MainDeployer] The manifest entry in file:/C:/Programme/jboss-3.0.6/server/trend/tmp/deploy/server/sf/deploy/my.ear/25.my.ear-contents/myejb.jar references URL file:/C:/Programme/jboss-3.0.6/server/sf/tmp/deploy/server/sf/deploy/my.ear/25.my.ear-contents/props which could not be opened, entry ignored

I need this classpath entry because I need to read some.properties.


I have also noticed that in the expected subfolder of tmp folder of JBoss the props folder of my.ear is not created. It looks that JBoss does not unzip my.ear completly.

Any hint?

Thanks,
Stephan
