can you be more specific or provide the deployment plan you are having the
issue with?
Cheers!

Thanks a lot for the reply!
But, while creating our application, I am afraid we didn't follow such a
directory structure that is required by the <environment>, <moduleId> and
<artifactId>. So, using some values for these tags, provide with errors in
the deployment or while running the application. It is an already existing
application in tomcat, and we are planning to rebuild it into Geronimo 2.0.
Can you suggest what may help me here?
Thanks

Hi Remya,
here are a couple of tips for understanding the deployment plans
Schema documentation for geronimo-web.xml
http://geronimo.apache.org/schemas-2.1/docs/geronimo-web-2.0.1.xsd.html
If you want to try Geronimo 2.1 (which I would encourage you to do so) you
can give a shot to the deployment plan wizard
(http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/deployment-plan-wizard.html ). It will
create a deployment plan for you at deployment time, if you are using
annotations it's even easier!
Back to your specific quesitons, <environment>, <moduleId> and
<artifactId>. These are how you uniquely identify your application (or any
other resource) within Geronimo.
<moduleId> encloses <groupId>, <artifactId>, <version> and <type>. These
ultimately identify the resource in the repository.
<moduleId> is defined within the <environment> tag which also encloses the
dependencies your application may have. For instance a database connection
pool, you'd be adding that dependency there, all enclosed within the
appropriate <dependencies><dependency> tags. The deployment plan wizard
link I included above provides more examples on this.
The deployment plans documentation is still in progress for Geronimo 2.1 (
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/deployment-plans.html ), you may still
find useful docs from previous releases with more details on the plans (
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC12/geronimo-webxml.html )

Cheers!

I am a beginner with Geronimo and would like to know the different steps
that
needs to be followed while writing my first geronimo-web.xml
While I was searching for some samples on the net, I came across several
elements in geronimo-web.xml, which was quite confusing to me, like
<environment>, <moduleId> and <artifactId>.
I had mentioned <context-root> for my application, but is that alone not
enough for my application to be deployed and run?
Please do help me in this regard with a suitable reply.
Thanks
