im trying to deploy a war file to jboss-AS 7.4, but when i run the deploy, the plugin deploy the war file genetated by the plugin,what i need is that the plugin deploys a war file in a specific directory of my system, this is my pom.
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

<fileNames>
<fileName>${warName}.war</fileName>

</configuration>

</build>
assuming that the war file is in the same directory as the pom, how can i make this work?
Thanks for your answers.

Answer 1

Reading the plugin documentation, it looks like you have to set the targetDir to the target directory where you want your application to be deployed link
Default: ${project.build.directory}/
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jboss.as.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>jboss-as-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>7.4.Final</version>
<configuration>
<force>true</force>
<hostname>${hostName}</hostname>
<username>${jbossUser}</username>
<password>${jbossPass}</password>
<port>10000</port>
<fileNames>
<fileName>${warName}.war</fileName>
</fileNames>
<name>ss.war</name>
<targetDir>src/custom/path/</targetDir>
</configuration>
</plugin>
hope it helps

Well i found a solution and apparently the problem be really small, the problem was that i was using a different property inside the configuration tags, this is the pom that worked for me:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>cc</groupId>
<artifactId>cc</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<name>cc</name>
<description>uses the pom to deploy to Jboss AS 7 with jenkins</description>
<properties>
<project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
<project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding>
<java.version>1.7</java.version>
</properties>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
<configuration>
<failOnMissingWebXml>false</failOnMissingWebXml>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jboss.as.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>jboss-as-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>7.4.Final</version>
<configuration>
<hostname>localhost</hostname>
<username>user</username>
<password>pass</password>
<port>10000</port>
<filename>mywar.war</filename>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
the change made is that I delete the tags fileNames and fileName and add the property filename, here you can specify the path to the war file to be deployed in the server ignoring the generated war in the target directory.
Thanks to all.
