JBoss VPS Hosting

How to install JBoss 4.2.2 on VPS

To make JBoss installation easy we have setup our own RPM package, which gives you option to install JBoss within 2 seconds!!

You need to log into VPS server via SSH, and on shell prompt type:

yum -y install eroute-jboss

and believe it or not - but that's it ! Now you have to start JBoss server by typing:

service jboss start

and JBoss server is up & running. You can access JBoss server via http://youdomain.com/

JBoss server is installed by default in: /var/jboss/ directory, and there you can find all necessary JBoss configuration files. If you do any kind of modification and you need to restart JBoss, you would need to type in shell: service jboss restart

Deploying on JBoss

To deploy EAR or WAR files, you need to upload your files in: /var/jboss/server/default/deploy/ folder, and then restart JBoss server by typing in shell: service jboss restart

To check if your application was successfully deployed without any errors you can check the jboss log file which is located in: /var/jboss/server/default/log/ folder.

Removing JBoss from VPS

If you decide to remove JBoss from server and install any other software, you would need to type:

rpm -e eroute-jboss

That will automatically remove ALL JBoss files & folders and stop Java process.
