[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & Deployment] - Re: Deploy a web application on JBoss

[PeterJ]

The URL in jboss-service.xml is only valid if it is accessible.  In other words, you need to have an HTTP server (which could be JBoss) on localhost with port 7070 open and be able to access the indicated context (mywar/test.war) through that server.  Why?  Because JBoss uses the URL specified as the location of the war file and will attempt to access (read) it from there.  If you can't access it from a browser using that URL, JBoss cannot access it either.

You might, instead, want to use a file URL, such as file:/home/foo/test/test.war, so that JBoss can access the war file from the file system.

Also, look at the jboss.system:server=MainDeployer MBean.  It has variations on the invoke operation which accept a URL or a file name. You can use the invoke methods to deploy applications, even exploded directories. You can invoke the operation either through 
the jmx-console or twiddle.  Be warned, though, that applications deployed this way are 'lost' when you restart the server and thus need to be redeployed (though if you use twiddle to do the deploy, you could always write a script to start the server, wait 20 or 30 seconds, and then deploy the apps through twiddle).
