When I publish an EAR project from my workspace into JBoss 4.2.1 it does not 
publish correctly.  I have tried both the WTP supplied 4.2 driver and the 
JBossAS-Tools supplied 4.2 driver.


My JBoss runtime is at /opt/jboss-4.2.1.GA this directory tree is writable by 
my userid, also exists is 
$HOME/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp2 which is 
also being published too as well as.


After a successful publish operation (successful from looking at the GUI, but 
unsuccessful from looking at the JBoss log) the following things happen:

The JBoss runtime home 
(/opt/jboss-4.2.1.GA/data/opt/jboss-4.2.1.GA/server/default/deploy/) ends up 
with an exploded EAR directory (this is the name of my project with the .ear 
extension but its a directory not a file), inside this directory is all the 
other subdirectories that make up the tree, but the only file in there is that 
of a Utility JAR.  There was no META-INF/application.xml and there is no EJB 
implementation JAR.

In the workspace server plugin temporary area for this server instance 
($HOME/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp2) I find an 
EAR file (which internally has my META-INF/application.xml, my Utility JAR and 
my EJB JAR).  It also has a directory (same name as EAR but without the .ear 
extension) this has all 3 files I'd expect to see in an exploded EAR tree.


When looking at the launch configuration for JBoss I can't see where the 
workspace deployment location is specified in the configuration, so I can only 
presume that what JBoss sees is only the file copied into the runtime home.  
Unlike Tomcat which can have a read-only runtime home but a read-write instance 
tree allowing for the sharing of the container by multiple instances in server 
tooling.


What copies the files during deployment into the JBoss runtime tree ?

Is there anyone who is actually using the server tools successfully in this way 
?  If so what versions of things to you have installed ?

I'm using: Eclipse 3.3.1, WTP 2.0.1, JBoss 4.2.1, JBossAS-Tools-1.0.0.beta4


Thanks, Darryl
