Deploying an Application with the JBoss EAP Console

JBoss Enterprise Application Platform provides an extensive Java EE-based application server to which we can deploy and manage our applications. Often, this can be a simple as deploying a provided WAR or EAR file to our configured server. In this lab, we'll specifically explore how to deploy a simple WAR file with the JBoss Management Console.

  1. Challenge

    Access the console and Download the WAR file.

    1. Download the provided kitchensink.war file, either from the GitHub link or via the server (it's provided at /home/cloud_user/kitchensink.war).
    2. Access the console at PUBLICIP:9990, using the admin username and pinehead password.
  2. Challenge

    Deploy the Application

    1. Click Start under Deployments.

    2. Click the + (plus sign) to the upper right of the left menu, then select Upload Deployment.

    3. Select the downloaded kitchensink.war file, then click Next.

    4. Provide the application with both a deployment name and a runtime name. This can be kept as a default if you are happy with the name of the war file. Click Finish, then view the deployment.

    5. Navigate to PUBLICIP:8080/kitchensink to confirm the application has been deployed. Note that we can also receive this URL from the Context Root attribute in our deployment information.

  3. Challenge

    Disable/Undeploy the Application

    Once you know the application is working, you can either disable it or undeploy it entirely. To do this from the console, you can either:

    • Click Disable
    • Remove it by selecting the arrow button next to the deployment name (kitchensink.war) and selecting Undeploy.

    Notice how disabling it leaves it in the deployment list, but undeploying the application removes it entirely.
