Hello, everybody!
How do I redeploy a web application in JBoss without restarting the server?

Thank you.

Two possibilities.

If you deployed as a war file, the simply copy the updated war file to the deploy directory (overwriting the existing war file). The hot deployer will notice the update and redeploy.

If you deployed as an exploded war directory, copy over the updated files. JSP changes are picked up immediately. For other changes, "touch" the web-inf/web.xml file. That will cause the app to be redeployed.
