Is it possible to add another hot deployment directory?

[gina144]

Hello all,

I just downloaded JbossAS 5 and get it running. Can I add another directory in addition to deploy so that Jboss deployers would scan it for hot deployment?

Thanks for the help,

Gina

Take a look at the VFSDeploymentScanner bean in server/default/conf/bootstrap/profile.xml

add another value-element:

<value>file:/usr/local/mydir</value>

Hi,
I am using AS 5

I have tried this by adding the following

<value>file:/home/fred/work/jboss/deploy/</value>

to the profile.xml file and restarrting JBoss AS. But when I put a WAR file
the /home/fred/work/jboss/deploy/ directory nothing happens. there is no error or anything in the server.log file.

Do anyone know why this is not working for me?

Wrong file. Try the profile-repository.xml file in the same directory.
