installing jboss on etch

debian These are some quick notes about how to install JBoss on a Debian etch system.

Prerequisites

It seems that only JDK is needed to get things working, so a simple

$ aptitude install sun-java5-sdk

will suffice.

Installing JBoss

The following instructions are just a compact rewrite of the information found in this useful post: JBoss on Debian quickstart.

$ cd /opt
$ unzip /home/adotti/jboss-4.2.2.GA.zip
$ mv jboss-4.2.2.GA jboss
$ jboss/bin/run.sh -b 192.168.10.13

A lot of logging output will flood your terminal... as soon as you see the following line:

INFO  [Server] JBoss (MX MicroKernel)
      [4.2.2.GA (build:SVNTag=JBoss_4_2_2_GA date=200710221139)] Started in 50s:564ms

you can point your browser to http://192.168.10.13:8080/ (the address specified after the -b option) and check if everything is working as expected.
