Intra-EAR dependencies

[Aman Nanner/MxI Technologies <am...@mxi.com>]

Hi,

I'm wondering if there is a way in Geronimo 2.0 to define intra-EAR
dependencies.  Within my EAR, I define a JMS ActiveMQ resource adapter to
deploy my JMS queues and topics.  I also have an EJB JAR that is part of
the EAR which uses these queues and topics.

The problem I am experiencing is that, when deploying my application, it
seems that the GBean for my resource adapter is not running before the EJBs
are deployed.  The deployment of my application then fails.

11:00:34,650 ERROR [GBeanInstanceState] Error while starting; GBean is now
in the FAILED state:
abstractName="Mxi/Testing/1/ear?J2EEApplication=Mxi/Testing/1/ear,j2eeType=EJBModule,name=mxgeronimoejb.jar"
java.lang.IllegalStateException: GBean is not running:
Mxi/Testing/1/ear?J2EEApplication=Mxi/Testingx/1/ear,JCAResource=geronimo-activemq-ra-2.0-SNAPSHOT.rar,ResourceAdapter=geronimo-activemq-ra-2.0-SNAPSHOT.rar,ResourceAdapterModule=geronimo-activemq-ra-2.0-SNAPSHOT.rar,j2eeType=JCAResourceAdapter,name=TestingJMS


I realize that I can get around this problem if deploy my JMS resources
separately from my EAR, and then declare an explicit dependency on the JMS
RAR, but I was hoping that I would be able to package them within the same
EAR.

Thanks,
Aman

This is very surprising.  All the connector stuff is supposed to  
start before any ejb or web stuff.  Maybe something got left out of  
the openejb3 work that was in the openejb2 stuff....
Before digging deeper can you see if the app starts OK if you comment  
out the ejbs or whatever is requiring the resource adapter?

Is this an MDB that receives messages from the queue/topic or a  
regular ejb?

Either way... thanks for reporting this problem, and opening a jira  
would be great.  If you have a test app to demonstrate the problem  
that would be even better!

thanks
