Hi Doug, JBoss 2.4 uses Tomcat 4.0x if I recall. Regarding the archive is there something similar to how Tomcat does this that I can look for and possibly find under JBoss?
I have already talked to JBoss who has informed me that 2.4 has been long since discontinued, they have 4.03 now, and 3.24 is the oldest version they have information on. :( Thanks Andrew -----Original Message----- From: Parsons Technical Services [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2006 9:15 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Java Question Okay. Now for a few of my hair brain ideas. Every once in a while I get lucky and actually suggest something that works. As for the files returning to the original state: I am totally ignorant on JBoss. If there is an archive of any type present my guess is that either the app is running from archive and thus checks it for changes. Since the files do not match the app is redeployed from the archive. Or: The app is exploded from the archive and the system redeploys the app on a regular basis. Either way you will need to make your changes inside of the archive and either redeploy it or allow it to redeploy. Changing the source outside of the archive is not a good idea. For the database issue, look into the code for transactions. It sounds like there is a transaction failure that is causing a rollback and thus the removal of the data. Other than an explicit deletion of data(code written to do it), it is about the only way data is going to be removed.

However I want to reinstate one point I made earlier or didn't make clearly. On the test box I copied over all the changed HTML files to it, and did the same to the production server thinking the Test server must have been copying all the files over to the production box. This morning both the test and production box were covered back to the original html files. I am looking at using Sysinternals FileMon to see if I can pin point the actual process that is copying the original files back. But one thing for sure it I plan to take the TEST box down. They also run into another problem which is database related and I am willing to be it has to do with the Test box multicasting. Sometimes when they post their items in the database the items disappear themselves completely after a couple of minutes! :( Andrew -----Original Message----- From: Sethuraman, Prabhu (Cognizant) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2006 5:18 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Java Question Andrew, You will be surprised but here is what it is: JBoss is actually sending the calls made to your production server to the test server. This is because of the failover mechanism that is available within JBoss. Your testserver must be in multicast mode. Try dropping the test server off multicase mode and you might not get to see the CEOs picture itself :) No kidding. We did have the same issue, where a critical transaction in a Production system was trying to get data from an EJB which was running in a test system.

The number one question I have is if it's possible to write code within Java that changes all your HTML files back to their original default? A client of mine runs, dare I say it here JBoss 2.4 and I found two copies of JBoss running, one on their production server, the other on a Test server. Anyhow I had to go and make changes to the HTML files within the JBoss, removed the previous CTO's name, fixed spelling errors, removed some dates, etc. Anyhow initially without taking the Test server into account when I made changes to the HTML files, at around 12:38AM the files are modified back to their original state. So I searched all the servers HIGH and LOW for these files and only came across the Test server having them too.. So I put the modified copies on the Test server and the production server yesterday, now they are back to the original copies again.. BIGH SIGH I have looked through all the scheduled tasks and not found anything, my thought is it could be embedded somewhere in the Jave??
