I'll attach a testcase: 1 EAR containing 1 EJB module with JBossWS.

During deployment I get this stacktrace:
17:42:06,267 ERROR [AbstractKernelController] Error installing to PostClassLoader: name=vfsfile:/C:/Software/jboss/server/default/deploy/hska.ear/ state=ClassLoader mode=Manual requiredState=PostClassLoader
