RESTEasy on JBoss 5 - jars needed

We are running JBoss 5.1.0 and I'm trying to get just a simple test app up and running with RESTEasy. However, I cannot figure out what I need in order to do this. Apparently new versions of JBoss have everything included, but that doesn't help me. From what I understand, I need to modify the web.xml of my app to include the bootstrap and some other things. And then I need to include some jars in the WEB-INF/lib. This is where I'm stuck.

  • Do I need to include any jars in the server/lib in JBoss, or are they all supposed to be in the WEB-INF/lib of my app?

  • What jars do I need to include? We are not using Maven. I've seen very few tutorials actually mention which jars to use, and when I download RESTEasy there 65 jars in the lib folder. I'm not including 65 jars in my HelloWorld app just to get RESTEasy to run. I can't find any documentation that tells me plainly what I need in order to get a RESTEasy app up and running on JBoss 5

Solution

  • Resteasy libraries are not bundled with JBOSS.5.1.0. You should include following libraries in your WEB-INF/lib
