Simple command line installer ----------------------------- Key: JBAS-8316 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8316 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Domain Management Reporter: Brian Stansberry Fix For: 7.0.0.M1 The AS is going to support two different running modes (see "Standalone Server" vs the rest of the discussion on http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-15215) and a flexible configuration for defining the "profile" a server will run. Profiles will not be represented via filesystem directories; rather they will be pure configuration. The two different running modes will result in slightly different filesystem layouts -- see discussion in http://community.jboss.org/thread/153858. The upshot of all this is using AS 7 will not be like previous versions where you could download the distribution, unzip, cd to bin/ and type ./run.sh -c some-std-config". Rather, I envision something like this: 1) download, unzip, cd bin 2) ./install.sh --someparamstotellitwhatyouwant Params to tell it what you want would be whether you're running in standalone mode or full domain, which of a set of pre-packaged profiles you want, maybe some more stuff. From this, installer would create the appropriate filesystem layout, generate a domain.xml+host.mxl or standalone.xml 3) ./run.sh -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
