So deploying through the web console or the auto deploy have the same results.
I have created a sample ear that deploys correctly packaged but fails unjarred using the correct file structure.
When using the deployer in the admin console of the app server:
I select the deploy local file or directory -> choose directory -> /tmp/MyTestEar.ear/
and it fails with:
