I assume you are using jBoss 2.0. If so, this is a known bug that has
been fixed and put in CVS for pre2.1. Two problems that I know have been
fixed are:
1. The deployer was not working when the DOCTYPE tag was specified. To
work around, simply remove the DOCTYPE tag from the deployement
descriptor. This is likely what is causing the error you are seeing.
2. The deployer was not prepending a "/" in front of the context root
name if it did not begin with "/" in the application.xml for ear files,
leaving an unreachable application. To work around this you need to
modify the deployment descriptor and add a "/" in front of the context
root name in the application.xml file.
Hopefully there will be binaries available soon for pre2.1. Until then
you can download source code snapshot and build the jBoss jar files in
order to get these fixes. Be aware, though, that some of the conf files
are different and you will have to change them accordingly.
