Hi,
I'm begginner in j2ee. I have one war module with minimal web.xml and geronimo-jetty.xml (in WEB-INF of course), when I deploy it everything works fine on geronimo and sun app server. When I use this file in ear, again with minimal application.xml and geronimo-appliation.xml (in META-INF), this works only in sun app server, but not in geronimo - gives strange message "No deployer found..."
First guess is that we are not looking inside the WAR for the geronimo-jetty.xml file when it is embedded inside the EAR - I think this is by intent.
One option would be to copy the web-app element from that file into the geronimo-application.xml file e.g.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/application"; configId="test3" parentId="org/apache/geronimo/Server">
<module>
<web>test3.war</web>
<web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/web/jetty";
xmlns:naming="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/naming";
configId="test3"><context-root>test3</context-root>
<context-priority-classloader>true</context-priority-classloader>
</web-app>
</module>
</application>Apologies for the formatting.
You do not need to include these files inside the archives themselves (which makes things easier IMHO) - you would deploy them externally using something like
java -jar bin/deployer.jar deploy myear.ear g-app.xml
Hope this helps -- Jeremy
