Hi,
ok, I found the reason. I post the thing below, since I already wrote it, maybe you'll find it useful.
The reason was the WAR file, or rather appriopriate entry in application.xml.
I entered <web-uri>/MyWebPart.war</web-uri> Note the / . Without the / it deployed ok.
I cannot remember why I put this "/" there in the first place, I think I read somewhere that I
should do so. Now I know I shouldn't, and on JBoss I also did [b]not[/b] put "/".
Thanks
Edek
With log level finest of deployer (I won't paste the whole log, just some lines before error).
Here is what it does:
[ parses the application.xml ]
[ gets libs from /lib ]
[ parses one of ejb-jar.xml ]
[ analyzes beans and annotations on them ]
[ ... the same for other EJB .jars ]
[ opens the WAR (i'll become more detailed here )]
[ does not read any web.xml, just dumps webBundle and classLoader (see dump):]
