How to deploy Workflow engine on jBOSS AS 7 - java

I have running jBOSS AS 7 and I want to deploy my Workflow engine on this server. How can I do it? I have files .bpmn and .java. In .bpmn file I have scenario and in .java file I have class with functions which I'm using in my .bpmn file.
Please help me.

You basically have two options:
(1) write your own web application that embeds the jBPM jars and calls the process at some point in time, this requires you to write a web app, embed all the jbpm jars and create a war from this to deploy
(2) take advantage of the jBPM console to deploy and execute your process on the jBPM execution server, you should install the jbpm-console and use the authoring environment to build and deploy your process and the management UI to start and manage your process instances. You can use git to sync your process in Eclipse with the jbpm-console. Consider using the jbpm-installer to install and start the jbpm-console on as7
Note that for (1) you need to have sufficient web development capabilities before you can get started with this. In this case, it seems going for (2) seems to be recommended.

Why using Tomcat and not "java -jar"?

I'm creating a job in jenkins to deploy a springboot application to Tomcat.
I'm trying to understand why should I deploy an application to Tomcat? Why not just run the application on the server by "java -jar" command?
In my previous workplace we deployed the springboot application by creating a war file and "java -jar" command. We used "kill" to shut down the application and "java -jar" again to deploy a new version...
I understand that Tomcat has a big advantage here and I would like to understand what is it?
Google says me how to work with tomcat but I couldn't find a real explanation why need it except this that says:
It provides a management dashboard from which you can deploy a new web application, or undeploy an existing one without having to restart the container. This is especially useful in production environments.
But what do I have to manage here?

Deploy compiled Rails app to Java server on Heroku

What are the steps I need to take to deploy my compiled jruby rails application(with warbler gem) to heroku Java servers?
I don't know Java so I hope you can help with the actions I need to take. For example, how I deal with the database connection? What configuration I need?
for deploying your Rails application as a war archive you should follow the Java web-app runner guide ... although it does require some Java domain knowledge - mostly around Maven.
probably the easiest thing is deployment using the toolbelt plugin heroku deploy:war --war <path_to_war_file> since it assumes you have packaged the .war on your own locally ...
NOTE: be advised that if you'd follow the migrating to JRuby guide than you'll end up deploying without any .war packaging being involved in the process (similar to how you deploy with MRI)

deploy a war file in Jboss 7.0.2

I have a problem in deploying the war file in Jboss7.0.2. when i deployed first time. it worked fine. i made few more changes(added one more end point) and after that i was not able to deploy the war. NO ERROR. but the new service is not getting deployed. But I am able to hit the old services.
steps i followed to deploy it,
1.stop the server
2.Remove the war file from
jboss-as-web-7.0.2/domain/servers/server-one/deployments/
3. Copy the new war file in to the same location.
4. Start the server.
do i need to do anything other than that? Please help me.
Instead of deploying by copying and pasting war files back and forth, use the native interface (CLI) or the http interface (admin-console). The deployment works differently in the domain mode.
I love the CLI interface to deploy files quickly. Example of deploying using the CLI in domain mode.
Make sure that jboss is running (domain.sh was executed)
Go to $JBOSS_HOME/bin.
run ./jboss-admin.sh -c (or ./jboss-cli.sh -c if 7.1 or later)
then run the following command in the CLI prompt:
4.1 To deploy: deploy <war_file> --server-groups=server-one
-->you should see a success/failure message
4.2 To undeploy: undeploy <war_file> --server-groups=server-one
-->you should see a success/failure message
For further reading please see here.
Hope this helps!
If you are binding to a specific ip address (or all ips) rather than localhost then
$ JBOSS_HOME/bin/jboss-cli.sh
The you will see
[disconnected /]
Type connect
you are no ready to deploy or undeploy
I have run into these issues at times and I suspect this is happening in development ONLY as you would put unstable code at times. steps I follow to clear the "bad" deployment
1) clear standalone/tmp
2) clear standalone/data
3) open standalone.xml - go to the end and clear and then restart Jboss. All your old deployments will be cleared.
Also as CoolBeans suggests above you would try to use the Admin console or the CLI.
If you are using Maven why not use Cargo plugin for Jboss and that will do a seamless deployment without you to manually copy to deployments - ofcourse unless you want to deploy in exploded format.

Deploying a Java servlet based application from local server onto Virtual server

As the question explains I want to deploy a Java servlet based application which is developed on a local server (Apache Tomcat 6.0). I have the IP address, Host name for the new virtual server. I want to know, if it will be just a normal site migration process where I'll have to install Tomcat on the new server and configure the server, web XML files or is there a bit more.
As I have not done Tomcat config before. Any Help would be great
Is there a step-by-step documentation to perform this
Thanks
Download and install Java
Download Tomcat http://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi
Read http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/setup.html
Build your webapp into a war file with your build scripts
Copy the war file into webapps directory under your tomcat installation directory. More details can be found http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/deployer-howto.html
I find it best to create a script that deploys my webapp from running my build script. And scp and ssh task comes in handy for installing it quickly. There are probably other maven tasks that might work for you.

Hot deploy with WebLogic server?

I have an enterprise application running on a WebLogic server.
When I modify any Java class, I have to build the .ear file and deploy to the server every time. Even for a small modification, I need to build the whole application and deploy to the server. The server is taking around 10 minutes to do this.
Is there any other way to do this?
When I was working with Tomcat, we used to update the .class files directly in the webapps project folder so that we didn't need to re-build the entire application.
Yes - there is a feature called FastSwap.
Using FastSwap to speed up dev
Using FastSwap Deployment to Minimize Redeployment
When you create a weblogic domain, you define it will be started in Development or Production mode.
To modify that, update the value of production-mode-enabled to true or false in config/config.xml
For more details check the following link or Weblogic documentation.
Difference between DEV and PROD mode in Weblogic 10.3
About your question on Weblogic Plugin, I suppose your're talking about OEPE (Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse), which will deploy your application to a running domain that will be in dev or prod mode according to the mentioned in the config.xml
