I recently experienced trouble deploying an ear file containing a war
module. After a lot of head scratching (and waste of Aaron's time) I
discovered that the source of the error was that the jetty-deployer
wasn't started.
The error returned by the deployer was "Module was not a war:
Adventure.war", which didn't help me a lot to say the least.
The error is printed from EARConfigBuilder.java in module j2ee-builder.
I'm on the 1.0 build being voted about earlier today. Transcript [1] at
the bottom of this mail exposes the error.
I know that I'm partly to blame (the jetty-deployer is active in the
default configuration), but nonetheless someone might want to create a JIRA?
Kindly,
Jakob
