Deploying an Application Automatically

You can deploy applications automatically by placing them in the as-install/domains/domain-name/autodeploy directory, where domain-name is the name of the domain for which you want to configure automatic deployment. For this example, use the default domain, domain1:

as-install/domains/domain1/autodeploy

To Deploy the Sample Application Automatically

Before You Begin

The sample application must be available before you start this task. To download the sample, see Obtaining a Sample Application.

1. Copy the application WAR file to the as-install/domains/domain-name/autodeploy directory.

   cp sample-dir/hello.war as-install/domains/domain-name/autodeploy

   Use copy instead of cp on Windows systems.

   GlassFish Server automatically discovers and deploys the application. The default URL for the application is:

   http://localhost:8080/hello/

To Undeploy the Sample Application Automatically

1. Change to the domain's autodeploy directory.

   cd as-install/domains/domain-name/autodeploy

2. Use the rm command to undeploy and remove the application.

   rm hello.war

   Use del instead of rm on Windows systems.
