.war deployment at external location

[mvonrohr]

Hi there!

I'd like to deploy a .war file outside the default deployment path (default is for me /opt/jboss/server/deploy) e.g. "/home/someone/jboss_deploy" Unfortunately I'm unable to find the files where I could specify the necessary parametres (the name of the war-file is myexample.war and it should be reachable at localhost:8080/myexample.

Any help is appreciated (Sorry if this was posted by someone else beforehand)

cheers, matt

Have a look at the 'Deployment Scanning' MBean defined in the jboss-service.xml in the conf folder of the configuration you are running.

Thx, got it.
It's the following tag:

<attribute name="URLs">
 deploy/
</attribute>

But how do I fill in another path now? Do I add another tag or do i simply specify it something like...

<attribute name="URLs">
 deploy/
 file:/home/someone/jboss_deploy
</attribute>

..which doesnt look very xml-ish to me :)

cheers, matt
