I have developed a web-service client and tested it as ear on local jboss always. this ear work fine. Now I want to create war for this application. whenever I tries:

project:export:war file

in eclipse, it creates war without any third party dependency jars files added to it. This war does not gets deployed on jboss successfully. Can anybody guide me hw to create war from ear.

A war should simply be a module inside the ear. You should be able to unzip the ear and use the war inside it, unless the ear has some weird shared library or classpath setup. - NilsH

you cannot create war from ear. ear is enterprise archive, and war is web archive.
ear may contain many war files. So when you are creating war using eclipse, it creates a web archive.
To add your third party jars, put them into the lib folder of your web application, that way it will be included into your war.
