<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>Hi Sri. Thank you for replying. Your notes were very helpful. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>1- The Windows Server has 3 instances of the Jboss (Development = C:\Jboss, TEST = D:\TEST_Jboss, Production = D:\PROD_Jboss).</p><p>2- The example I had provided is the D:\TEST_Jboss\standalone\deployments</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>As you noticed in the logs, I had created a folder called <strong>Archive</strong> under <strong>D:\TEST_Jboss\standalone\deployments </strong>to keep older versions of the WAR files. After reading your response, I realized that Jboss maybe scanning the /deployment folder and all subfolders. So I removed the Archive folder. Started this TEST instance and the deployment succeeded without errors (<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Thank you very much for pointing that our to me</span>).</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><strong>Question 1-</strong> Why would the deployment succeed after deleting the ".failed" file in the <strong>D:\TEST_Jboss\standalone\deployments</strong> without touching the files in the Archive folder?</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><strong>More importantly</strong>, what happens now when I stop the TEST instance (The deployed file remains in the <strong>D:\TEST_Jboss\standalone\deployments folder</strong>) and attempt to restart the Jboss? I just tried this and noticed that the deployed war file extension changed to ".dodeploy" and a new file got created with ".isdeploying" extension. Nothing else happens. The site is not up.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><strong>Question 2-</strong> What's the recommended method of stopping the Jboss instance so that the existing deployed WAR file is removed making it possible for the next Jboss Start-up to deploy the WAR file without errors and issues?</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I have not modified the security/permissions. I'll stay with one change for now and monitor the system for few days and see if I see other issues.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><div class="mcePaste" id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px;"></div></div>
