First of all u seemed to be having too many doubts and seems to be lost in somewhere. You have to provide more details what u intend to do.
As far as deploying an application in JBoss is considered just need J2sdk that is the only S/W you need. JBoss 4.0 needs J2sdk1.4.2 >= and it has an emebedded tomcat in it. Now deploying in JBoss can be done by JMX_Console (accessbile via a web browser - like http://localhost:8080/jmx-console or in deploy directory of instance whichever u are running. JBOSS_HOME/server/<all|defualt|standard>/deploy/ Ant is not a required unless u want to deploy an application while developing, in that case u can have ant targerts for that, otherwise just drop yr .ear or .war file into deploy directory. It is a build tool like make/gnu autoconf for building softwares. Also look at JBoss Admin guide under Documentation and WIKI there is a lot of help available and then these user forums. I hope this helps and just do one by one, as they say Rome was not built in a single day, in yr case Mumbai wasn't built in a single day :-) View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3872855#3872855 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3872855 ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
