On windows, I can't seem to undeploy a file from JBoss by deleting it from the deploy directory while JBoss is running because JBoss seems to keep a file handle open to the archive. I've tried this with EAR and WAR files. I didn't have this problem on JBoss 4. If I'm not mistaken, this issue has existed on Beta1 and Beta2 as well. Is this a bug? I couldn't find an existing issue.. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4126405#...
