[embjopr-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (EMBJOPR-28) if the call to redeploy() during an EAR/WAR update fails, the EAR/WAR will not be discovered by the subsequent runtime scan, and the Resource will disappear from inventory

if the call to redeploy() during an EAR/WAR update fails, the EAR/WAR will not be discovered by the subsequent runtime scan, and the Resource will disappear from inventory --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: EMBJOPR-28 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/EMBJOPR-28 Project: Embedded Jopr Issue Type: Bug Components: Plugin Affects Versions: 1.0 Reporter: Ian Springer Assignee: Ian Springer Fix For: 1.1 Original Estimate: 3 hours Remaining Estimate: 3 hours I think the most robust thing to do would be: For create: 1) Write the file (or dir) and call deploy(). 2) If deploy() fails, call undeploy() on the file (or dir) and then delete it from the filesystem. For update: 1) Backup the original war to filename.war.rej first thing using File.rename() 2) Then write the new file and call deploy(). 3) If deploy() fails, rename the rej file back to the original name and then call deploy() once again. This 2nd call to deploy() should always succeed, but if it fails, inform the user that in addition to the update failing, rollback to the original war failed.
