ADMA0010E: A Validation error occurred in task Selecting virtual hosts for Web modules

If your come across the following error while deploying a web application to websphere
ADMA0010E: A Validation error occurred in task Selecting virtual hosts for Web modules
Then the issue would be your might be missing the following file in your web archive (war)
ibm-web-bnd.xml
ibm-web-ext.xml 
Ensure that you have those files present in the archive and the redploy the application. 
I have come across this error while deploying a new web module to Websphere commerce server using wcbd scripts.

Here is the complete error I have seen in my wcbd wasadmin target
