How to do auto-deployment on weblogic 9.2

[Amit Jain]

Hi All,

I am using Weblogic9.2 server. I am developing server side code (DAOs,
Business Objects) I dont change the EJBs often but I do change the
Business Objects and DAOs mutiple times during development, and many a
times I have to restart the Weblogic server, whcih I dont like doing.

My problem is, that I want to auto-deploy my "CoreBO.jar" which
consists of code (DAOs, Business Objects) but I don't want to deploy
my complete appliaction/ all application modules.

So I wanted to set up hot deployment, which is called as auto-
deployment in Weblogic only for "CoreBO.jar"

Thanks in advance .

From above exception its clear that my "CoreBO.jar" is not deployed,
could you please suggest me to resolve exception.

Hi Amit,

Your understanding is correct, that "CoreBO.jar" is not deployed.
To resolve this exception I would like to know by which means are you
deploying the project like is it .war, .ear or .rar file etc.

Please have a look the following requirements :

1. If it is an EAR file, please ensure the META-INF/application.xml
exists.
2. EJB-JARs should have a META-INF/ejb-jar.xml.
3. WAR files require a WEB-INF/web.xml, and
4. RARs require a META-INF/ra.xml.

And remember a JMS deployment should be an XML file whose name ends
with "-jms.xml". Where as a JDBC deployment should be an XML file

whose name ends with "-jdbc.xml".
