Building JBoss 4.0.2 with security patch jbas-1875- patch.zi

[prakashbabu]

Hello All,

I had filed an issue regarding building JBoss 4.0.2 with the security patch jbas-1875-patch.zip
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-2031

This issue was closed stating that the patch was not meant to be a full source patch and to check out the full cvs branch.

I am unable to download JBoss 4.0.2 from the cvs.

# cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[e-mail]:/cvsroot/jboss co -r JBoss_4_0_2 jboss-4.0
cvs [checkout aborted]: no such tag JBoss_4_0_2

So can I use the following steps to build JBoss 4.0.2 with the jbas-1875-patch.zip

1. Download JBoss 4.0.2 source from
http://jaist.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/jboss/jboss-4.0.2-src.tar.bz2

2. Build JBoss Application Server
# cd jboss-4.0.2-src/build/
#./build.sh

3. Replace the built jar files in the client(jbossall-client.jar,jbosssx-client.jar) and server(jboss-jca.jar,jboss.jar,jbosssx.jar) directory with the ones present in the jbas-1875- patch.zip
# unzip jbas-1875-patch.zip
# cp client/* jboss-4.0.2-src/build/output/jboss-4.0.2/client/
# cp server/default/lib/* jboss-4.0.2-src/build/output/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/lib


Are the steps to apply this security patch documented anywhere.
Since the patch contains both source files and binary files there is confusion whether it is a source patch or binary patch

Thanks,
Prakash

You have the wrong CVS repository:

Hello Ryan,

I downloaded JBoss 4.0.2 source from CVS location you suggested
#cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[e-mail]:/cvsroot/jboss co -r JBoss_4_0_2 jboss-4.0

But I dont find any difference between the original source and the one in the cvs

#diff -r jboss-4.0.2-src jboss-4.0.2_cvs

So where can I get the JBoss 4.0.2 source in which the Security patch jbas-1875 is applied ?

Or else can I use the following steps

1. Download JBoss 4.0.2 source from
http://jaist.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/jboss/jboss-4.0.2-src.tar.bz2

2. Build JBoss Application Server
# cd jboss-4.0.2-src/build/
#./build.sh

3. Replace the built jar files in the client(jbossall-client.jar,jbosssx-client.jar) and server(jboss-jca.jar,jboss.jar,jbosssx.jar) directory with the ones present in the jbas-1875- patch.zip
# unzip jbas-1875-patch.zip
# cp client/* jboss-4.0.2-src/build/output/jboss-4.0.2/client/
# cp server/default/lib/* jboss-4.0.2-src/build/output/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/lib

Thanks,
Prakash

I shouldn't have replied to you in this forum. This is the wrong forum for this discussion - this is the "Design of JBoss Build System".

You need to take your question to the Installation, Configuration & Deployment forum.

I actually posted this question to the
Installation, Configuration & Deployment forum nearly three times but none seem to respond and thats why I posted here thinking that was the wrong forum.

thanks,
Prakash

I went through above link and understood the do's and dont's in the JBoss forum. I apologise for my mistake.

Thanks,
