Hi,

I found the an interesting thing about the problem that I reported in this
post thread. Basically, I set up my project as maven and then convert the
build EAR into eclipse projects so that I can debug my ejb and war app using
GEP (please also see my other post from
http://www.nabble.com/car-maven-plugin-and-GEP-to21095185s134.html to see
how this can be done.) I have followed the practice to bundle my WAR project
so that it refers all lib dependencies to its EAR lib directory. This
practice is well documented as skinny war (please see
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/examples/skinny-wars.html).
The interesting here is that maven is quite smart to handle transitive
dependency and as a result, mave generates my war META-INF/METAFEST.MF to
refer to some missing jar files in EAR lib directory. Once I manually added
these jars file to my ear pom.xml file, I fixed the mysterious "JAVAEE 5
Section 8.2" problem.

Thanks for all excellent supports from this forum who has made geronimo well
JEE app and product.
