I am working on a WAS 6.1 project (previous three were WAS 5.1 based). This new EAR was cloned/modified from one of the 5.1 EAR’s — but updated for J2EE 1.4 and JDK 5.

I am seeing the following 2 issues:

1) I have deployed to a WAS 6.1 profile. If I quit Eclipse or switch workspaces and then switch back, in the server list, WebSphere 6.1 doesn’t show the deploy to the server I just did. But if I try and deploy “again/new”, then I get the “deployment exists…” dialog box and just tell it to update/replace and it is happy. I don’t have this issue with my 5.1 projects in a different workspace.

2) The most serious issue is this. My workspace basically consists of a couple of Java projects for the following:
– Common Java Classes
– App Specific Classes
– App Specific Property files
– EAR
– WAR (with dependencies to the JAR Projects

My workspace with WAS 5.1 exploded deploys will copy the property files from the PropertiesJAR project to the exploded EAR into EAR/WAR/WEB-INF/classes.

But the WAS 6.1 workspace/EAR/WAR doesn’t “deploy” the property files to the WAR classes directory.

Under the MyEclipse->Web properties for the WAR, under the deployment tab I have the defaults of “Smart deployment” and then all of the default library deployment settings. The notice says “Smart Deployment…Merge into the ‘classes’ directory for exploded deployments.”

This doesn’t seem to work and I need to get those resources deployed :-).

Thanks in advance for any/all suggestions/help.

Brian,
Can you try cleaning you workspace and check if the issue gets resolved:-

Also, can you create a brand new EAR project and try reproducing this issue. Does the problem persist with the new project as well?
