MyEclipse 10.0.2
Websphere 7.0.0.21
Windows XP

I created a test ear project with ejb and web to test MyEclipse deployment to Websphere. The deployment was ok for awhile during my incremental changes in ejb and web modules. Then, I added a csiiDS (datasource) to Websphere and the connection was tested successfully. Then, I added a resource-ref was added to web.xml.

<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/csiiDS</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
<res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
</resource-ref>

This change caused the deployment fail. The ear in "Servers" view kept showing as "Redeploy". There was a dialog box showing about maybe a problem with undeployment phase. Something could not be removed. I tried many things and eventually found this in the wsadmin.traceout:

Why didn't MyEclipse report "Insufficient data for install task "MapResRefToEJB"" to the user?

Hayward ,

Sorry that you are seeing this issue.

1) Can you please attach the .log file which is located at <workspace dir>/.metadata/.log for us to investigate further ?

2) Can you please attach a screenshot of the error that you see on the IDE for us to help get a visual ?
