Gradle ear is putting JAR instead of WAR

ear, gradle, war

Solution

SOLVED!

It needs to configure the WAR module inside the EAR project as:

dependencies {
    deploy project(path:':web-application', configuration:'archives')
    earlib group: 'log4j', name: 'log4j', version: '1.2.15', ext: 'jar'
}

Problem

I'm trying to build an ear using Gradle. I've my project tree like: ``` /project | |--> /web-application | | | |--> /src (stuff of web app) | | | |--> build.gradle | |--> build-gradle |--> settings.gradle ``` I'm trying to generate the ear using the ear plugin, but when I do `gradle assemble` I have the war created under the build directory of the web-application, but inside the generated ear I have a jar of the web application. The gradle configuration files are very simple, here they are: project/build.gradle ``` apply plugin: 'ear' repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { deploy project(':web-application') earlib group: 'log4j', name: 'log4j', version: '1.2.15', ext: 'jar' } ``` project/web-application/build.gradle ``` apply plugin: 'war' repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { compile group: 'log4j', name: 'log4j', version: '1.2.15', ext: 'jar' } ``` What I did wrong? I notice that also the bundled samples for the war plugin, have the same problem... Thanks in advance
