application module" message
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-1811
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1811
Project: Geronimo
Type: Improvement
Security: public (Regular issues)
Components: deployment
Versions: 1.0
Reporter: John Sisson
Assigned to: John Sisson
Priority: Trivial
Fix For: 1.1
Need to provide more information in the following error message, giving the
user a bit more of a hint as to what the problem may be.
C:\test>geronimo-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT\bin\deploy --user system --password manager
deploy jstest.ear jstest.xml
Using GERONIMO_BASE: C:\test\geronimo-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT
Using GERONIMO_HOME: C:\test\geronimo-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT
Using GERONIMO_TMPDIR: C:\test\geronimo-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT\var\temp
Using JRE_HOME: C:\j2sdk1.4.2_10
Error: Unable to distribute jstest.ear: Cannot deploy the requested
application module (planFile=C:\test\jstest.xml,
moduleFile=C:\test\geronimo-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT\var\temp\geronimo-deployer59948.tmpdir\jstest.ear)
In the case above it was due to my ear file accidentially having all the files
under a directory.
I propose we add the following to the end of the message:
Check that the module file contains the expected deployment files and directory
structure. If problems persist, ensure the appropriate module builder is
running.
