I have a 25997040 Mb IzPack based installer available on sourceforge: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jboss/jboss-4.0.2-installer.jar?downl oad that illustrates the direction we are looking to head in terms of a much more flexible installation packaging. This is a default configuration footprint for the jboss-4.0.2 release. Note that this requires java5 to install as I was screwing around with some java5 features in the installation callback listener. After downloading, install with
java -jar jboss-4.0.2-installer.jar Issues: - I have only tested that full installation starts up. If you minimize the install be deselecting components there may well be missing dependencies that result in startup failures. - The binding-service really is not a standalone service on which other components depend, because it has to be active before any component it is to reconfigure is deployed to the jmx kernel. The binding-service should really be a configuration aspect of the SARDeployer. - The jdbc-metadata-service.xml seems to have dependency issues. If you associate the the standardjbosscmp-jdbc.xml with the ejb-deployer.xml, then you have the jdbc rars depending on jdbc-metadata-service.xml which depends on ejb-deployer.xml which depends on a data source deployment which depends on a jdbc rar. I guess the question dependency is from the jdbc rar to the metadata library service. - Need alternate groups of services to allow a jms-ha installation vs regular jms for example. - There should be customization of the component installs to add security, alternate ports, etc. Each component could have its own customization panel to support the change of commonly altered settings. - Ultimately want to look at a full jems installer with most components available for download over the network to allow for a very small microkernel install with enterprise pojo framework installation as desired. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
