How to retain files in work folder in jboss 4.*

[shyamjig]

Hi Friends,

I am currently using jboss4.0.4-GA version. It is found while shutting down jboss all the files in work folder gets deleted, is there any means by which i can retain these files and how do i configure the container to pick the files from the work folder.

Thanks
Shyamji.

Perhaps what you really want to do is deploy your application using an exploded directory: http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ExplodedDeployment

You never said why you need the work directory retained.
