I’ve got an EAR file that is dependent upon a JAR file named jcisobjects.jar. This JAR file is created by another project in the workspace (project name is JCISObjects).

When I try to deploy my EAR (using “Custom Location” and “Packaged Archive”), I get the following message:

“Error during deployment: exception deploying JCISObjects.”

Here’s the log file:

I have already restarted Eclipse with the -clean option and it didn’t seem to help.

This is odd: “Exploded Archive” deploys just fine. “Packaged Archive” seems to be the problem.

Where do I begin to debug this?

Thanks,
Curt

What type of project is the JCISObjects project? How do you have the relationship defined between the two of these projects?

[Curt King]

JCISObjects is a standard Java project (a “utility” project).

On the main project (called “Queries”), I’ve added JCISObjects as a “Project Reference” and on the “Java Build Path/Projects” tab. It is also listed under “Project References” on the EAR project (QueriesEAR).

On the “Properties/MyEclipse/Web/Deployment” tab, I’ve defaulted to the workspace settings, which are “Smart Deployment” and all four checked under “Library Deployment Policies”.

[Riyad Kalla]

So the setup is:

+ QueriesEAR (EAR)
  + Queries (Web)
    + JCISObject (Java)

Is that correct?

[Curt King]

Yes, sir.

[Riyad Kalla]

Curt,
I created an example setup modelling what I believe is similar to your situation here. Please download and import it, and see if you can deploy it.

[Curt King]

Yes, sir, it deployed just fine.

[Curt King]

Riyad — not sure why this worked, but when I put my Java packages and classes into a folder called /src, the project deploys properly.

I’ve never had a /src folder in the JCISObjects project and it hasn’t been a problem until now.

Has something changed recently?

Thanks,
Curt

Curt,

Nothing has really changed, but most likely your project is simply set up to have a source folder called ‘src/’ and without it it couldn’t find your Java code to compile. Have a look at Properties > Java Build Path to verify.

[Curt King]

That was probably it…something must have changed on my side to get things confused.

Thanks for your help!
