To Deploy to JBoss

Installing JBoss Application Server

You can download JBoss Application Server from the JBoss official website, and install it from there.

To open JBoss Application Server:

Enter the URL http://localhost:8080 in your Web browser, where 8080 is the default port.

Administering JBoss Application Server

JBoss Application Server provides a Web interface for administering the application server. This administration interface is called the JBoss administration console. To start the console:

Enter http://localhost:9990/console/App.html in your Web browser. Port 9990 is predefined as the Management Console socket binding.

Starting and Stopping JBoss Application Server

You can start and stop JBoss Application Server from the JBoss console or from the command line, as follows.

JBoss EAP 6.4

Run jboss_home\bin\standalone.bat to start it.
Run jboss_home\bin\jboss-cli --connect command=:shutdown to stop it.

Deploying the Resource Adapter

JBoss EAP 6.4

To deploy a resource adapter for JBoss EAP 6.4, update the standalone.xml file, located in your JBoss installation's standalone\configuration directory, as follows:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:jca:1.1"> element

Edit the <archive-validation>, child of the <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:jca:1.1"> element, to disable it:

<archive-validation enabled="false" fail-on-error="true" fail-on-warn="false"/>

Add the mfcobol-notx.rar resource adapter

As a child of <profile>, add the following <subsystem> to standalone.xml:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:resource-adapters:1.1">
	<resource-adapters>
		<resource-adapter>
			<archive>mfcobol-notx.rar</archive>
			<transaction-support>NoTransaction</transaction-support>
			<connection-definitions>
				<connection-definition class-name="com.microfocus.cobol.connector.spi.CobolNoTxManagedConnectionFactory" jndi-name="java:/eis/MFCobol_v1.5" pool-name="CobolConnectionFactory">
					<pool>
						<min-pool-size>2</min-pool-size>
						<max-pool-size>10</max-pool-size>
					</pool>
					<security>
						<application/>
					</security>
				</connection-definition>
			</connection-definitions>
		</resource-adapter>
	</resource-adapters>
</subsystem>

Add the mfcobol-localtx.rar resource adapter

As a child of <profile>, add the following <subsystem> to standalone.xml:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:resource-adapters:1.1">
	<resource-adapters>
		<resource-adapter>
			<archive>mfcobol-localtx.rar</archive>
			<transaction-support>LocalTransaction</transaction-support>
			<connection-definitions>
				<connection-definition class-name="com.microfocus.cobol.connector.spi.CobolLocalTxManagedConnectionFactory" jndi-name="java:/eis/MFCobol_v1.5" pool-name="CobolConnectionFactory">
					<pool>
						<min-pool-size>2</min-pool-size>
						<max-pool-size>10</max-pool-size>
					</pool>
					<security>
						<application/>
					</security>
				</connection-definition>
			</connection-definitions>
		</resource-adapter>
	</resource-adapters>
</subsystem>

Add the mfcobol-xa.rar resource adapter

As a child of <profile>, add the following <subsystem> to standalone.xml:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:resource-adapters:1.1">
	<resource-adapters>
		<resource-adapter>
			<archive>mfcobol-xa.rar</archive>
			<transaction-support>XATransaction</transaction-support>
			<connection-definitions>
				<connection-definition class-name="com.microfocus.cobol.connector.spi.CobolManagedConnectionFactory" jndi-name="java:/eis/MFCobol_v1.5" pool-name="CobolConnectionFactory">
					<xa-pool>
						<min-pool-size>2</min-pool-size>
						<max-pool-size>10</max-pool-size>
					</xa-pool>
					<security>
						<application/>
					</security>
				</connection-definition>
			</connection-definitions>
		</resource-adapter>
	</resource-adapters>
</subsystem>

Deploying the Application .ear File

When you generate an application .ear file the JBoss Application Server requires that the .ear file contains deployment descriptors that specify deployment information about your application. When you use generate a client and EJB using the Interface Mapping Toolkit, these deployment descriptors are automatically created and packaged into the .ear.

JBoss EAP 6.4: Copy the application .ear file from the directory my-project\repos\my-service.deploy\my-service.ear into your JBoss deployment directory which is, by default, jboss_home\standalone\deployments

Logging

JBoss EAP 6.4: JBoss stores log files and traces by default in jboss_home\standalone\log\server.log.
