What ever servlet engine it is JBoss or Tomcat or ...... Axis2 is something for Tomcat or JBoss or .... so you deploy AXIS2.WAR to one of this servlet-engines Axis2 is a message processing engine doing all for you that you can deploy web-services so you deploy AXIS2 Webservices TO AXIS2 in a .AAR files Given AXIS2 is running, and given AXIS2 is configured for HOT DEPLOYMENT any time you compile/pack/copy your webservice.aar into the service dir of AXIS2 makes AXIS2 re-deploying your web-service. >From this view point I can't see any difference; bee it Tomcat or JBoss or ... >servlet engin, it's AXIS2 which does the re-deployment of webservice and not Tomcat or JBOss or any other servlet engine. In short. Once you have deployed AXIS2 and it's engine is ready, to then re-deploy a web-service does not require any re-deployments AXIS2 AXIS2 depends on a working servlet engine while web-services depend on a working AXIS2-engine Josef Stadelmann@ axa-winterthur.ch

I'm not sure what type of app server you're using, but if your AAR is disappearing, then you're probably putting it inside some "runtime" deployment of Axis2 that the server recreates each time the server starts. Hence, anything placed into this temporary location will be gone upon restarts. -Vinh _____ From: Nate Roe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 08, 2008 4:54 PM To: 'axis-user@ws.apache.org' Subject: RE: web service deployment options I don't know what I did differently, but this is not the case for me. When I was using AAR deployment, bouncing JBoss would never un-deploy my AARs. _____ From: Dennis Sacks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 08, 2008 4:45 PM To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Subject: Re: web service deployment options Great info! Thanks for alerting me to that. Does anyone know however, if I do want to use the axis2 web application, is there a way to make a deployed service persist through an application server restart? Now, when I bounce JBoss, I must reload my webservice .aar file, as the service is no longer there.

Does everyone install the axis2 web application and deploy using that? Are there other options? When I stop and restart JBoss (the app server I'm using), I have to upload my web service into the axis2 web application again. Is there a way to avoid having to do that? Dennis
