Hi Guys,
I'm trying to migrate to JBoss 7.1.1 from 4.0.5.
In our application we use lot of symlinks to support CMS content which is managed
externally and to support some file bases caching. Here is how the deployment looks like
JBoss 4.0.5:
-----------------
Under "/deploy/jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/czen/deploy" we've our exploded WAR
directory release.war
Here release.war is a symlink to '/deploy/webapp/current' which in turn is a
symlink to an actual release folder like '/deploy/webapp/release-version-xyz'
'release-version-xyz' folder has the following structure
- WEB-INF
- JSP
- Content
- Cache
- JS
- CSS
Here both Content and Cache folders are symlinks to
/deploy/webapp/
- CMSContent
- Cache
respectively.
This deployment structure worked perfectly fine on JBoss 4.0.5 and now I'm moving this
app to JBoss 7.1.1 and here is the deployment structure
Under "/deploy/jboss-as-7.1.1.Final/czen/deployments" I've moved our
release.war as a symlink. Rest of the structure remains the same as mentioned above. With
this setup JBoss 7 start up/ application initialization fails because it's not able to
follow the symlink and find a file that my application is trying to read at startup. I
looked over the documentation and forums to figure out a solution for this but no luck.
Could you guys please help in troubleshooting this issue? Is there some configuration
parameter that needs to be set or are there other ways. Please let me know, I've a
deadline fast approaching
Thanks & Regards
Shashank
