To list the web application URIs and directories for a virtual server: (Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP10 Administrator's Guide)

Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP10 Administrator's Guide

To list the web application URIs and directories for a virtual server:

wdeploy list -i <instance> -v <vs_id> [ [-V <verboseLevel>] | [ -q] ]

The command parameters have the following meanings:

`uri_path`	The URI prefix for the web application.
`instance`	The server instance name.
`vs_id`	The virtual server ID.
`directory`	(optional) The directory to which the application is deployed, or from which the application is deleted. If not specified for deployment, the application is deployed to the document root directory.
`hard \| soft`	Specifies whether the directory and the `server.xml` entry are deleted (`hard`) or just the `server.xml` entry is deleted (`soft`).
`war_file`	The WAR file name
verboseLevel	The verbose level to display the log messages on console. The value can range from 0 to 4. The default value is 1. Note that in Sun Java System web Server 6.1, the `loglevel` attribute of the `LOG` element in `server.xml` is used in lieu of this element.
`-q`	(quiet) Sets the verbose level to zero. It is equivalent to the setting `-V 0`.
`-n`	prevents `wdeploy` from automatically sending the reconfigure command to the web server. For more information, see Using -n in the wdeploy Command.

Caution –

If you deploy a web application and do not specify a directory, the application is deployed to the document root directory. If you then delete the application using the hard parameter, the document root directory will be deleted.

When you execute the wdeploy deploy command, three things happen:

A web application with the given uri_path and directory gets added to the server.xml file.
The WAR file gets extracted at the target directory.
The server is dynamically reconfigured to load the new web application.

For example:

wdeploy deploy -u /hello -i server.sun.com -v acme.com 
-d /s1ws61/https-server.sun.com/acme.com/web-apps/hello 
/s1ws61/plugins/servlets/examples/web-apps/HelloWorld/
HelloWorld.war

This utility results in the following server.xml entry:

<VS>
    <WEBAPP uri="/hello"
     dir="/s1ws61/https-server.sun.com/acme.com/webapps/hello">
</VS>

The /s1ws61/https-server.sun.com/acme.com/web-apps/hello directory has the following contents:

colors
index.jsp
 META-INF
WEB-INF/
     web.xml
     /classes/
         HelloWorldServlet.class
         HelloWorldServlet.java
         SnoopServlet.class
         SnoopServlet.java
