Specific deployment instead of scanner directory

[kgalligan]

I'd like to be able to specify an exploded directory to deploy rather than a directory to scan for deployments. Is there a way to do this?

In the jboss-service.xml file there is this section...


deploy/


This allows you to add a directory to scan for deployments. The problem is that I'm building with maven, and in the target directory will be the exploded webapp, the war file, and if you include and war's in the build, those included wars. I just want to deploy the exploded app like tomcat can...

...

I did this in the server.xml file in jboss's deploy directory, but then the jboss security setup won't work.

Any thoughts? I'd pull my hair out, but I already did that today.

Thanks in advance

If i am not wrong, what you are looking for, is a way to deploy your war file in an exploded form. Isnt this what you want? If thats the case, have a look at:

http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ExplodedDeployment

In short, you will have to create a folder in the %JBOSS_HOME%/server/default/deploy named someName.war (someName can be your application name) and place the contents of your application in that war folder.
