RE: [JBoss-user] Netboot issues
Hi Ryan, Let me preface this with: I did this thru experimentation (the traditional way, I like to say), not with documentation. AND, I am not done experimenting... :) So, I may be doing this wrong, but it gives me what I want, a central location of .jars, and deployable applications that can be deployed via an http protocol. I created another directory under the jboss install's server/ called /netboot. At startup, it has only /conf directory. All the 'services' (-service.xml, etc.) deployed point to the http URL where the JARs required by their service are located. In my case, a local Apache instance's /htdocs/netboot/lib directory. Here is an example from my JBOSS_HOME/server/netboot/conf/jboss-service.xml: !-- Loads Jars from HTTP URL -- classpath codebase=http://localhost:80/netboot/lib; archives=activation.jar,autonumber-plugin.jar,bcel.jar,castor.jar,counter-p lugin.jar,hsqldb.jar,hsqldb-plugin.jar, jaas.jar,javax.servlet.jar,jboss.jar,jbossha.jar,jboss-j2ee.jar,jboss-jca.ja r,jboss-jsr77.jar,jboss-management.jar, jbossmq.jar,jbossmx.jar,jbosssx.jar,jcert.jar,jmxri.jar,jmxtools.jar,jnet.ja r,jnpserver.jar,jpl-pattern.jar,jpl-util.jar, jsse.jar,jts.jar,log4j.jar,mail.jar,mail-plugin.jar,process-plugin.jar,prope rties-plugin.jar,scheduler-plugin.jar,tyrex.jar,xalan.jar / To netboot, I run: run.bat -c netboot. JBoss looks in the /server/netboot/conf directory, finds jboss-service.xml which says hey, load my required jars from http://localhost:80/netboot/lib;, and I am off to the races! I also load any deployable apps as well like this.
