Problems deploying ESB 2.1.1 and later versions on JBoss 5 GA

After digging around in the code - in Activator.java Line 62 String url = dbelement.getFirstChildWithName( new QName(UserCoreConstants.UserMgtConfig.URL)).getText(); realized that it was looking for a 'URL' element while I had typed the element name as 'Url' in user-mgt.xml This case-sensitivity issue on the tag name was causing the NullPointerException. Thanks Rahul

I am currently evaluating WSO2 ESB on JBoss My environment: JDK 1.6 , JBOSS 5.0 GA, ESB 2.1.2, Oracle 10g The registry is on a local Oracle 10g database I was able to get to a point where there were no errors except for this WARNING Message StartupFinalizerServiceComponent Waiting for required OSGi services: org.wso2.carbon.mediation.initializer.services.SynapseEnvironmentService, INFO - ServiceBusInitializer Starting ESB... Although I am not sure whether ESB ever started fully (?) I was able to login into the Admin console. This is where all the problems started - - Clicking on the 'services' Link throws errors: ERROR - ServiceAdminClient Cannot get all services. Backend service may be unavailable -Clicking on the 'synapse' link throws -'Serialization' errors: Unable to serialize synapse.xml - Clicking on the mediators, sequences menu items throws errors: ERROR - SequenceAdmin Couldn't get the Synapse Configuration to get the available sequences - Clicking on the 'statistics' link throws errors Looks like some path resolution issues. Where should I be looking at to fix these problems ? When deploying inside a App Server, does the ${carbon.home} parameter get resolved correctly or do we need to specify an absolute path ? I have the synapse path specified as Full Absolute path Please provide some pointers Thank you Rahul

After spending hours on trying to get the Admin console working finally took these steps to resolve the problems - Removed the org.wso2.carbon.server-2.0.2.jar from the WEB-INF/lib folder in JBoss This step stopped the incessant warning message: StartupFinalizerServiceComponent Waiting for required OSGi services: org.wso2.carbon.mediation.initializer.services.SynapseEnvironmentService But gave me a single ClassNotFoundException for TransportManager. I can live with this for now- the Admin console works now. The jar was added to the WEB-INF/Lib folder based on this forum entry: https://wso2.org/jira/browse/CARBON-4881 WARNING: Adding the jar file prevents the ESB from starting properly. The stop-gap solution provided is not correct. Thanks Rahul
