[opencms-dev] JBoss 4.0.2 and OpenCMS 6.0

[Ricky Tapper]

First, kudos to all. I am finding this to be a very
stable and extensible product.

Second, I have found some peculiar things in the
installation and would like to tell you about the
work-arounds.

I am running JBoss 4.0.2, OpenCMS 6.0, and MySQL 4.1
on Windows XP Pro (my development machine).

1. In order to install 6.0 on JBoss I had to install
it on a standalone Tomcat version

2. Run the setup.

3. Copy the OpenCMS directory to the deploy directory
of JBoss.

4. Renamed the directory to OpenCMS.war.

5. I changed the opencms.set.logfile property in the
log4j.properties file to false. This file can be found
in server\all\deploy\opencms.war\WEB-INF\classes. This
assumes that you are using the "all" server
configuration.

While this resulted in a working environment, I find
having to run the setup in Tomcat and then copying the
"setupped" directories to JBoss quite cumbersome. Does
anyone have another way of accomplishing this?
