Jboss Context

[saravanag]

Hi,

I deployed my test web applicaion in Jboss at jboss/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/deploy/test.war.

I want to deploy the application as a folder instead of war file. Like instead of test.war I want to create a folder called test and place all the files under test folder.
How to create the context for this folder?
Will Jboss only take war file as context?

Any help/suggestion will be great.

Thanks in Advance.

Thanks
Ganesh

Say you have a myapp.war file containing the files index.jsp and WEB-INF/web.xml. You can create a directory named ./server/default/deploy.war, and into that directory place the file index.jsp. Also create the directory ./server/default/deploy.war/WEB-INF and place the web.xml file into that directory.

I know I answered this is some earlier post but I could not find it.

Also see http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=DeployTipsAndBuildSampleScripts for further information.

Still didn't find my post, but Peter Muir has a great diagram showing an exploded ear file at http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=84879&start=0&postdays=postDays&postorder=postOrder&highlight=highlight

Hi,

Can I place my application folder outside JBoss and give a context to it?
This can be done in Tomcat by setting up context path in server.xml

For Ex:


while the server will be in /appl/tomcat/..

Can anyone help me how to do this in Jboss?
Should all application be deployed under /default/deploy only ?


Thanks in Advance
