JBoss 4.0 Setup:

JBoss setup is fairly simple, download the zip file of desired version of JBoss application server and extract to a directory example c:\JBoss

To Start the JBoss server : located the file run.bat under the directory "C:\JBoss\jboss-4.0.2\bin" and either double click it or run it from a command prompt.

The configuration is selected by passing -c <config-name> to the run script

By default JBoss comes with 3 server configs, namely all, default, minimal. if you dont specify the config name, it will pick "default" config.

All you have to do for customization, copy the config directory , rename it as you wish, and then remove or add more .xml files for the functionality you need.

The AS comes bundled with tomcat web server 5.5.

To View the console: there are 2 console which you can view

1. jmx console

2. web console

JMX Console :

This is the JBoss Management Console which provides a raw view of the JMX MBeans which make up the server.They can provide a lot of information about the running server and allow you to modify its configuration, start and stop components and so on.

url for jmx console : http://localhost:8080/jmx-console

Web Console :

JBoss comes bundled with tomcat web server, so the url for web console is : http://localhost:8080/web-console

Deploying the application on JBoss:

All you have to do is copy the .ear file into the deploy directory, and JBoss deploys it using hot deployment, no need to restart the server.
