which form to download either source or binary download for Jboss 4.2.3 ?

[hari790]

Hi,

I am new to Jboss and want to install Jboss 4.2.3 in my linux machine.

I am confused in source and binary packages which one to download.

java version of 1.4.2 is currently installed in my machine.

Are there any prerequisite apart from Java version for installing Jboss?

Could anyone suggest me in this aspect.

Thanks in advance.

You'll have to download the pre-built binary file, unless you want to build it yourself.

Whlie running ./run.sh in linux i am facing the following error:

ERROR[main deployer]:could not create deployment

Could you guide me how to proceed further.

you should start with the documentation. See downloads here https://community.jboss.org/wiki/JBossApplicationServerOfficialDocumentationPage
