On Windows, when I attempted to undeploy an exploded EAR application, I found that the OS will not let me delete a jar file in the APP-INF/lib directory. The result is that my application will not undeploy cleanly I created a simple ear containing test.war META-INF APP-INF/lib/test.jar I attempted to undeploy it by removing the directory from the ${JBOSS_HOME}/server/${SERVER_NAME}/deploy and I could not delete the entire exploded EAR directory. How do I make sure an EAR can be undeployed cleanly? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3994721#...
