I have an application build on J2EE EJB 2.0 deployed on JBoss 5.1.0. I want to migrate that application to JBoss 7. Does JBoss 7.x Support J2EE 5.0 and EJB 2.0? If Yes, then how to Migrate Jboss 5.1.0 to JBoss 7.x?

EJB 2.0 was already legacy technology in JEE 5, EJB 3.0 was the standard EJB spec since then. You're actually asking how to deploy a legacy JEE 1.4 application on JBoss 7. Unless you're serious about the "migration" part, which would include changing the code to be up-to-date with the modern spec. – Gimby Jun 08 '15 at 13:09

1Thats the long term plan. As 1st I need to migrate the jboss 5 to 7 then start on migrating the code from ejb2.0 to ejb 3.0 – Ankit Duggal Jun 10 '15 at 04:19

I am migrating from jboss 4 to 7 and yes EJB 2 is supported.
Please note that class loading and JNDI names conventions have changed and you probably have to change the definition of your JNDI names and the corresponding code doing the lookup: In AS7 there is no possibility for custom JNDI names of EJB beans and it's not planned for 7.1
.
See this guide for migrating to version 7.
Note on EJB 2: run the server using the standalone-full.xml
configuration to have your EJB entities deployed
