Hey all,

I'm trying to get some help getting Firebird working in JBoss 4.0.1,
and I'm not getting any help from the JBoss FAQ's, Wiki's or the
Forum. I know I can't be the first to run into this because I've seen
it posted in the JBoss forum before - but the reply is always the
same: "FAQ".

I've done the following steps to get it to go with no joy:

a- Copied over the .rar file into my default deploy directory.

b- Removed all the *hsql* xml files

c- Copied the example firebird-ds.xml, and modified the datasource to
be DefaultDS.

d- Based on the HSQL ones, I've made firebird-jdbc-state-service.xml
and firebird-jdbc2-service.xml files.

There are no exceptions or stack traces in the console or the
server.log. I'm getting no feedback from the system.

Can anyone help?


Here goes -

In my console for JBoss, I get this:

MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM:
ObjectName: jboss.jca:name=DefaultDS,service=DataSourceBinding
state: NOTYETINSTALLED
I Depend On:
Depends On Me:
jboss.ejb:persistencePolicy=database,service=EJBTimerService
jboss:service=KeyGeneratorFactory,type=HiLo
jboss.mq:service=StateManager
jboss.mq:service=PersistenceManager

But, in my server log, I see where the DefaultDS service has been
installed:
