Steps to deploy web application on JBoss via install4j installer

问题

I am not sure where should I start from as I have to deploy a web application on JBoss via install4j installer.

I have created the Dynamic Web Apllication and I want to deploy this application on JBoss but deploy a war file and configure JBoss on client machine is not a good idea thus I want to create a installer file (.exe) file which will take care of following things:

Installation of JBoss server on client machine
Deploy my application on JBoss server

so that I just have to give that installer file to client and on single click the installer will do all the things for me and as I am new to install4j tool, I am not able to do this with install4j tool.Anyone can provide simple steps to create .exe file using install4j or any other tools

EDIT what I tried so far

I have run this exe but it has created application folder structure but where is JBoss Configuration and how can i deploy this apllication on JBoss

回答1:

Deploying a web application locally involves copying a WAR file to a specific directory which in the case of JBoss is the standalone\deployments directory. in install4j, you can use a "Copy file or directory" action to copy a war file from a distribution tree to an arbitrary directory.
