How to alter JBoss deployment order
If one application depends on another one — you may want to alter the deployment order of JBoss.
1. One way to accomplish this is to change the order in the ${serverconfig}/conf/xmdesc/org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer-xmbean.xml file.
<attribute access=’read-write’ setMethod=’setEnhancedSuffixOrder’ getMethod=’getEnhancedSuffixOrder’>
<description>Allows the override of the suffix order declared by subdeployers, using the syntax [order:]suffix
</description>
<name>EnhancedSuffixOrder</name>
<type>[Ljava.lang.String;</type>
<descriptors>
<value value="250:.rar,300:-ds.xml,400:.jar,500:.war,550:.jse,650:.ear,800:.bsh"/>
</descriptors>
</attribute>
2. One way to accomplish this is to create a deploy.last directory inside the deploy directory and put the application that needs to be deployed after the other in the deploy.last directory.
Another one is to modify ${serverconfig}/conf.xmdesc/org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer-xmbean.xml
and add your application before the othes in the EnhancedSuffixOrder list.
<attribute access='read-write' setMethod='setEnhancedSuffixOrder' getMethod='getEnhancedSuffixOrder'>
<description>Allows the override of the suffix order declared by subdeployers, using the syntax [order:]suffix
</description>
<name>EnhancedSuffixOrder</name>
<type>[Ljava.lang.String;</type>
<descriptors>
<value value=”250:.rar,300:-ds.xml,400:.jar,500:.war,550:.jse,600:mynewapp.ear,650:.ear,800:.bsh”/>
</descriptors>
</attribute>
