[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of Messaging on JBoss (Messaging/JBoss)] - Re: Graphic Installer for Messaging

[vladimir.ralev@jboss.com]

OK, here is the the JEMS Installer (not released) that includes Messaging 1.2.GA (to test it you must run ant in the main folder):

http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/installer/jems-installer/trunk/
installer output: output/jems-installer-1.2.0.GA.jar

Currently we have some issues with the database selection because messaging still suports a limited set of databases. We will probably remove the unsupported dbms' when messaging is selected, and use the full set if the user goes with jbossmq (as before). We may also refactor the Messaging Config panel, because the only real messaging-related config is the security domain. Note that it doesn't include the mysql drivers.

This is the upgrade/patch installer which installs messaging on an existing AS:

http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/installer/jems-installer/branches/Branch_JBINSTALL-246/
installer output: output/messaging-installer-1.2.0.GA.jar

Unlike the JEMS Installer it uses directly the release-admin.xml, because it's capable of modifying "dirty" config files (we can't do that without ant in the installer right now). Here, we collect the ant properties database, ports, id from the user and pass them to the script. In installation path you must select the JBOSS_HOME. I'll also create a readme, which explains everything to the user (only mysql out of the box, names of AS configs, etc).

Thanks for any suggestions and feedback.
