I am a Integration Engineer for a software company. My development team has generated various jboss .ear applications that rely on configuration files being in the jboss/bin directory and setting the CLASSPATH externally using batch files (on Windows from an external LIB directory) rather than using jboss's internally loaded classes. Is this the right/standard way of doing things? Would some other location be better (for the config files) such as jboss/server/instancename/deploy or some other directory? Any opinons on how I can direct my development team to doing things in a best practices fashion?

I'd recommend /path/to/jboss/server/$DEPLOYDIRECTORY/conf
. It's called conf
for a reason.

is $DEPLOYDIRECTORY an actual environment variable for JBoss? is there an environment variable for "/path/to/jboss" ? – djangofan May 26 '10 at 16:45

No. The deploy directory is specified with the flag `-c`. The default deploy directory is named `default` unless you specify otherwise. – Warner May 26 '10 at 16:49
