AutoDeploy ant task in JBOSS6.0 Not working

[sudhir23]

Hi

can someone help me with the autodeploy EAR file in JBoss 6.0 AS. i trie using below twiddle script:

twiddle.bat invoke "jboss.system:service=MainDeployer" deploy C:\Application\dist\Application.ear

It picks up the EAR and deploys in tmp location which works fine, but if i again run script with new changes in EAR it wont get deployed.

please tell me is there any other way to autodeploy EAR in jboss6.0.

Thanks

Sudhir

hi all

i forgot to post the autodeploy steps, i was able to autodeploy in test env from another machine.

define  the below properties in your properties file:

JBOSS_HOME=C:/jboss-6.0.0

JBOSS_SERVER=localhost or your server name

JBOSS_JMX_PORT=1090

JBOSS_USER=admin

JBOSS_PASSWD=admin

define the below targets in your ant script. and call ant deploy.

<target name="undeploy">

         <jmx:open host="${JBOSS_SERVER}" port="${JBOSS_JMX_PORT}" username="${JBOSS_USER}" password="${JBOSS_PASSWD}" />

        <jmx:invoke name="jboss.system:service=MainDeployer" operation="undeploy">

              <arg type="java.lang.String" value="vfs:///${jboss.dir}/deploy/Application.ear"/>

        </jmx:invoke>

    </target>

    <target name="copy-ear" depends="undeploy">

          <copy file="${app.ear.dir}/Application.ear" todir="${jboss.ear.dir}"/>

    </target>

    <target name="deploy" depends="copy-ear">

         <jmx:open host="${JBOSS_SERVER}" port="${JBOSS_JMX_PORT}" username="${JBOSS_USER}" password="${JBOSS_PASSWD}" />

         <jmx:invoke name="jboss.system:service=MainDeployer" operation="deploy">

              <arg type="java.lang.String" value="vfs:///${jboss.dir}/deploy/Application.ear"/>

         </jmx:invoke>        

    </target>

this task reduced our time in autodeploying the application manually.
