Re: [jboss-rpm] Using RPM packaged JBoss AS in different location by different user

Hi All, With the upcoming jboss-as-7.1.0-3 the usage outside of /usr/share/jboss-as directory and by different user to jboss-as was simplified. Below you can find steps how you'll be able to use it. Let's go with an example. I'm assuming you have a user called "tom". 1. Create required directory structure # Let's go to his home directory cd /home/tom # Create the root directory where we want to store # JBoss AS configuration and temporary data mkdir jboss-as cd jboss-as # Create required direcotries mkdir data deployments log tmp configuration 2. Copy required configuration files (feel free to use your own!) # Let's copy the logging.properties cp /usr/share/jboss-as/standalone/configuration/logging.properties configuration/ # Let's copy the mgmt-users.properties cp /usr/share/jboss-as/standalone/configuration/mgmt-users.properties configuration/ # Copy standalone.xml cp /usr/share/jboss-as/standalone/configuration/standalone-web.xml configuration/

3. Boot the server! (yep, that's all) JBOSS_BASE_DIR=/home/tom/jboss-as /usr/share/jboss-as/bin/standalone.sh -c standalone-web.xml But if you want to run a JBoss AS service by different user using different configuration (hi oVirt guys!) then you need to create two additional files: /home/tom/jboss-as.conf: =============== JBOSS_PIDFILE=/home/tom/jboss-as.pid JBOSS_BASE_DIR=/home/tom/jboss-as JBOSS_CONFIG=standalone-web.xml =============== /usr/lib/systemd/system/tom.service: =============== [Unit] Description=Tom's JBoss Application Server After=syslog.target network.target [Service] Environment=LAUNCH_JBOSS_IN_BACKGROUND=1 EnvironmentFile=-/home/tom/jboss-as.conf User=tom LimitNOFILE=102642 PIDFile=/home/tom/jboss-as.pid ExecStart=/usr/share/jboss-as/bin/standalone.sh -c $JBOSS_CONFIG StandardOutput=null [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target =============== Of course feel free to tweak these files. Remember, everything you see above will work after 7.1.0-3 gets released.
