Hello all,
After having created a simple EAR (EJB+Web) project, I had some
trouble deploying on the local server.
The error message was "Cannot deploy the requested application
module because no deployer is able to handle it. This can happen if
you have omitted the J2EE deployment descriptor, disabled a deployer
module, or if, for example, you are trying to deploy an EJB module
on a minimal Geronimo server that does not have EJB support
installed. (moduleFile=/tmp/geronimo-deployer24875.tmpdir/
TestJ2EE.zip)"
The problem was that I had not generated the deployment descriptor
stub for both the EAR project (giving the aforementioned message)
and the EJB project (giving an error saying that the project.jar was
not an EJB).
Hope this might help someone,
Hi Stephane,
Thanks. Glad you got things working.
IIUC, your problem was caused because Eclipse did not automatically
generate a deployment descriptor. I'm wondering why a deployment
descriptor isn't created automatically by WTP/GEP. Anybody that's more
familiar with GEP know the answer?
