Brian’s Stuff

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.

JAVA_OPTS="-Dappserver.home=$JBOSS_HOME -Dappserver.base=$JBOSS_HOME $JAVA_OPTS"

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 --></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 --></password>
</local-tx-datasource>
</datasources>

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

WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml

</jboss-web>

Remove the following from the WEB-INF/lib folder of apache-archiva-1.1.3.war because 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.
