Can deploy non-portlet war files to JBoss Portal Server?

[mmissire]

Hi,

I have a small web application that runs under Tomcat. It is the server-side for an Adobe Flex 3 client, and is built around BlazeDS.

I am having trouble installing it under JBoss Portal Server 2.6.5 SP1 (OS X 10.5.2). Once I expand the war file into the jboss-portal-2.6.5.SP1/server/default/deploy directory, I see these errors on startup:

11:38:05,767 ERROR [Scheduler$Listener] Invoke of the Schedulable MBean failed

Is installation of non-portlet J2EE web applications supported? In other words, is this a reasonable thing to attempt?

If so, any idea about this "No Host matches server name localhost?"

Thanks in advance for any help.

Looks like you are running on a Mac. Please post the contents of your /etc/hosts file, and perhaps someone who runs on a Mac can point out if there are any issues with it (if it was Linux I could probably spot the error).

Never mind. I got it working.

In jboss-portal-2.6.5.SP1/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/server.xml,
I apparently needed to set autoDeploy="true" and deployOnStartup="true".

Furthermore, my expanded web application directory needed a war extension, or I got INIT_WAITING_DEPLOYER errors.

Thanks, PeterJ, for the reply (my post above was made before seeing your note).
