application.xml for Jboss 6

Question

Can we package ear for jboss 6 ? What will be application.xml uri ??

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" version="5"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee 
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee  /application_5.xsd">

<display-name>my-ear</display-name>
<module>
    <ejb>my-ejb</ejb>
</module>

I have tried changing version for version=6 but it is saying file not found.

Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-app_6_0.dtd

Does any one have face such problem with jboss 6 while deploying ear ????

I have solved it using maven ear plugin and removing manually created application.xml.

Here is my ear pom it might be helpful for other

Use the 5.0 one - it should be available locally in $JBOSS/docs/dtd/jboss-app_5_0.dtd

The xml above is something different though and goverened by some other schema documents - this does not match the error you show.

You need to change the file jboss-app.xml to use a doctype of

DOCTYPE jboss-app
PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD Java EE Application 5.0//EN"
"http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-app_5_0.dtd"
