After jumping through a few hoops I managed to get Archvia 1.1.3 successfully deployed to JBoss 4.2.3.

Set the appserver.base and appserver.home properties by adding the following lines to $JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.sh and restart JBoss.

Now create data source deployment descriptors for the archiva and users databases and copy them to $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy. I am using MySQL 5.1 to as my database server.

archiva-ds.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <datasources> <local-tx-datasource> <jndi-name>jdbc/archiva</jndi-name> <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost/archiva/connection-url> <driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class> <user-name>archiva</user-name> <password></password> </local-tx-datasource> </datasources>

users-ds.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <datasources> <local-tx-datasource> <jndi-name>jdbc/users</jndi-name> <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost/users/connection-url> <driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class> <user-name>archiva</user-name> <password></password> </local-tx-datasource> </datasources>

Add WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml to the .war file.

WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE jboss-web PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD Web Application 2.4//EN" "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-web_4_0.dtd"> <jboss-web> <context-root>archiva</context-root> <resource-ref> <description>Archiva Database</description> <res-ref-name>jdbc/archiva</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <jndi-name>java:/jdbc/archiva</jndi-name> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> <resource-ref> <description>Users Database</description> <res-ref-name>jdbc/users</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <jndi-name>java:/jdbc/users</jndi-name> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> <resource-ref> <description>Mail Session</description> <res-ref-name>mail/Session</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.mail.Session</res-type> <jndi-name>java:/Mail</jndi-name> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> </jboss-web>

Remove the following from the WEB-INF/lib folder of apache-archiva-1.1.3.warbecause they will cause conflicts with:

commons-logging-api-1.1.jar
log4j-1.2.14.jar

Copy apache-archiva-1.1.3.war to $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy.
