Hi all,

I need help on how to set up wildfly virtual host in such a way, that you can deploy the same WAR file in both your production server and you local development computer, without having to change your WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml, depending on the targeted deployment. Below are more details:

1. I own website.com which is powered by a  s4g-web.war module, deployed into a wildfly server.

2. I use the wildfly virtual host set up, so that users hitting http://website.com will be forwarded to: http://website.com:8080/s4g-web with the following configurations (+ some Ubuntu firewall port mapping, basically for http, 80--->8080):

===== wildfly's standalone.xml =======

...

<server name="default-server">

                <http-listener name="default" socket-binding="http"/>

                <host name="default-host" alias="localhost">

                    <location name="/" handler="welcome-content"/>

                    <filter-ref name="server-header"/>

                    <filter-ref name="x-powered-by-header"/>

                </host>

               <host name="s4g" alias="website.com, www.website.com" default-web-module="s4g-web.war">

                    <location name="/" handler="welcome-content">

                        <filter-ref name="connection-limit"/>

                    </location>

                </host>

</server>

...

======== w4g-web.war's jboss-web.xml ==============

<jboss-web>

    <context-root>/</context-root>

    <virtual-host>s4g</virtual-host>

</jboss-web>

3. The above setup works fine for the PROD server.

4. However, I would like to deploy the same s4g-web.war to my development laptop, without having to modify the jboss-web.xml, which is major pain.

If I do not change my local wildfly's standalone.xml, i will get undertow errors when I try to deploy the same s4g-web.war

So, I modified my local wildfly's standalone.xml to be:

...

<server name="default-server">

                <http-listener name="default" socket-binding="http"/>

                <host name="default-host" alias="localhost">

                    <location name="/" handler="welcome-content"/>

                    <filter-ref name="server-header"/>

                    <filter-ref name="x-powered-by-header"/>

                </host>

               <host name="s4g" alias="localhost" default-web-module="s4g-web.war">

                    <location name="/" handler="welcome-content">

                        <filter-ref name="connection-limit"/>

                    </location>

                </host>

</server>

...

but I am getting different undertow errors now:

11:44:15,737 ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation] (XNIO-1 task-2) JBAS014613: Operation ("deploy") failed - address: ([("deployment" => "s4g-web.war")]) - failure description: {"JBAS014771: Services with missing/unavailable dependencies" => [

    "jboss.undertow.deployment.default-server.s4g./ is missing [jboss.undertow.server.default-server.s4g]"

]}

11:44:15,741 ERROR [org.jboss.as.server] (XNIO-1 task-2) JBAS015870: Deploy of deployment "s4g-web.war" was rolled back with the following failure message:

    "jboss.undertow.deployment.default-server.s4g./ is missing [jboss.undertow.server.default-server.s4g]"

]}

Does anyone know how to do this dual deployment, without having to delete WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml for every local deployment and restore it back for production server deployment?

Thanks.
