Re: Current best practices for automating deployment to Weblogic 8?
Hi Ryan, since I'm not a weblogic expert I have a question - would a remote deploy work if the application is already deployed?! Thanks in advance Siegfried Goeschl Ryan, Scott wrote: One thing to note is that this will not by default support remote deployment.

Current best practices for automating deployment to Weblogic 8?
Hi, I am wanting to automate deployment of our WARs / EARs to Weblogic 8 under Maven, scheduled via Anthill Pro. I'm wondering what is the latest and greatest way to do this, right now. There seem to be several options available: * Cargo (which we are already using for Jetty, but doesn't have WL8 support yet) * the Maven appserver/J2EE plugins (but these don't seem to support deployment to an existing remote container???) * Rolling my own with calls to SCP (probably via ant's SCP target) and Weblogic's native container start/stop/deploy control support. Can anyone provide input on which of these (or some other) would be the path of least resistance? Pointers to publicly accessible working examples would be great. Thanks a lot, Chad - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
