Moving JCA CCI (not DataSource) from Weblogic to JBoss

[Olexandr Prokhorenko]

Hi guys.

We're moving our software developed to run on BEA Weblogic 8.1 to JBoss (we're running the latest 4.0.1sp1 and 3.2.6).

I've got an EAR, combining a simple JCA Adapter's RAR with Web application' WAR, working fine on Weblogic server. I've got the ra.xml like the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE connector PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Connector 1.0//EN' 'http://java.sun.com/j2
ee/dtds/connector_1_0.dtd'>
 
<connector>
 
<display-name>zJCA Adapter</display-name>
<vendor-name>BigCompany, LLC</vendor-name>
<spec-version>1.0</spec-version>
<eis-type>File Exec</eis-type>
<version>1.0</version>
 
<resourceadapter>
<managedconnectionfactory-class>
zjca.ZManagedConnectionFactory
</managedconnectionfactory-class>
 
<connectionfactory-interface>
javax.resource.cci.ConnectionFactory
</connectionfactory-interface>
 
<connectionfactory-impl-class>
zjca.ZConnectionFactory
</connectionfactory-impl-class>
 
<connection-interface>
javax.resource.cci.Connection
</connection-interface>
 
<connection-impl-class>
zjca.ZConnection
</connection-impl-class>
 
<transaction-support>
NoTransaction
</transaction-support>
 
<reauthentication-support>false</reauthentication-support>
</resourceadapter>
 
</connector>

also, I've a Weblogic-specific config named weblogic-ra.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE weblogic-connection-factory-dd PUBLIC '-//BEA Systems, Inc.//DTD WebLogic 6.0.0 Connector//
EN' 'http://www.bea.com/servers/wls600/dtd/weblogic600-ra.dtd'>
 
<weblogic-connection-factory-dd>
 
<connection-factory-name>ZConnectionFactory</connection-factory-name>
<jndi-name>zjcaAdapter</jndi-name>
 
</weblogic-connection-factory-dd>

I thought that deployment to JBoss can be as easy as with Weblogic, but unfortunetly, it failed. I have already checked the doc, look at the examples, but with no luck. Deploying my EAR gives me nothing more then:

13:18:32,623 INFO [EARDeployer] Init J2EE application: file:/C:/jboss-4.0.1sp1/server/default/deploy/zjca.ear
13:18:34,145 INFO [ResourceAdapter] Registration is not done -> stop
13:18:34,155 INFO [TomcatDeployer] deploy, ctxPath=/zjca, warUrl=file:/C:/jboss-4.0.1sp1/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp32118zjca.ear-contents/zjca-exp.war/
13:18:35,477 INFO [EARDeployer] Started J2EE application: file:/C:/jboss-4.0.1sp1/server/default/deploy/zjca.ear

I'd be very thankful for any help, as I'm already broke my timeline for move to JBoss AS.

Thanks.

I've created a special file zjca-ds.xml with the hope that I'll help me to deploy an adapter:

<connection-factories>
 
    <no-tx-connection-factory>
 
<adapter-display-name>zjcaAdapter</adapter-display-name >
        <jndi-name>zjcaAdapter</jndi-name>
<rar-name>zjca.rar</rar-name>
<connection-definition>zjca.ZConnectionFactory</connection-definition>
 
    </no-tx-connection-factory>
 
</connection-factories>

Unfortunetly, all it produces is the following:
