hotdeploy

Why do my hot-deployed files disappear sometimes? (I think Apache eats them)

Here's my situation: Windows Server Apache CruiseControl The last step of my CruiseControl deploy scripts copies the build to Apache's htdocs folder, in a "demos" folder (I believe this is referred to as a "hot deploy"?) All is good and dandy, except that SOMETIMES (not common, but it happens enough that it bugs me), the demos folde...

Tomcat Hot Deploy not working

I'm having an issue hot deploying a new WAR on my Tomcat 6 server. When I add in my new WAR I can see that Tomcat is attempting to deploy it. However, I believe the problem lies in undeploying the old war - the exploded war folder's contents are all deleted - except the WEB-INF folder. If I stop the server, delete the WEB-INF folder an...

Finding a needed dll after a JBoss (hot) redeploy?

My web application uses a native dll for part of its functionality (the location of which is provided in PATH). Everything works until I make a change to the WAR and JBoss hot deploys this WAR. At this point, the dll is no longer found and I need to manually restart the server. What is the best way to load the dll back into the app afte...

Incremental deployment of java web applications

We have following problem. Developers frequently need to make small changes to our web applications. When I say small, I mean things like correcting the spelling on a web page or similar.

Hot deploying changes with Netbeans, Maven, and Glassfish

Recently we migrated from using ant to maven. Within Netbeans, I used to edit and save html, xhtml, javascript, css files in the WAR and almost immediately the changes were available on the server. Now, when I edit and save those types of files in the WAR, nothing happens. I have to right click my EAR -> Build with dependencies -> Run ...

Pitfals of deploying/redploying app to Tomcat without restarting

I have read that it is possible with Tomcat 5.5+ to deploy a war to a Tomcat server without a restart. That sounds fantastic but I guess I am too skeptical about this functionality and it's reliability. My previous experience (with Websphere) was that it was a best practice to restart the server to avoid memory problems, etc. So I want...

Which Java web frameworks provide hot-reload?

I'd like to know which Java web application frameworks do provide a "hot reload" capability, i.e. allow to develop applications and have them redeployed on the server "almost instantly" (i.e. in less than a few seconds). I the Java world, Play! has it out of the box, but what I'm looking for is a more exhaustive list. Other examples t...

Changes to markup files not getting picked up in wicket project

Hot deploy not longer working on JBoss ("Scheme change not implemented")

Hi! I've got a pretty annoying problem with my JBoss AS 4.2.3 GA. Until recently everything was running fine, but now the hot deploy feature is now longer working. And -- as always -- I don't know what I did to cause this behaviour. My projects are built with Maven. I've cleaned every target directory, installed the projects and then ...

Has anyone been able to hotdeploy using m2eclipse on Websphere 6.1 with MyEclipse?

I've been looking around for a while how can I hotdeploy my projects when using m2eclipse plugin on MyEclipse and working with Websphere 6.1.

deploy and undeploy multiple artefacts to JBoss using Maven

I intended to use JBoss-Maven-Plugin for hotdeployment of jars to JBoss. I have three projects A, B, C that depend on each other so if I want to redeploy A I first have to undeploy C, then B, then redeploy A, then B, then C. Now I'm having a hard time finding a way undeploying the artifacts and then deploying them in reverse order. Might...

hot reloading / swapping with Python

I want code changes to take effect immediately during development. How can I detect changed files and reload them in the running Python (2.7) application? Edit: After reading the pages linked by 'Ivo van der Wijk', I think it would be best to restart the web application when code changes - like Django does. So the actual question is: H...
