I have been given an existing project which is consisting of pom.xml file in it .
Can we manually run the pom.xml file , to create a war file and deploy it into Tomcat WEB Apps
Please tell me how to do this .
Thank you very much for reading .
(And also in our existing Application , we are having more than one POM.xml files in it )
Make sure you have (Maven)[http://maven.apache.org/] installed and set your environment variables for JAVA_HOME and M2_HOME or M3_HOME based on the version of Maven.
From the command line, navigate to the location that has the pom.xml file.
Type: mvn clean install.
This will create a target folder that has the .war in it.
Take the .war file and install in Tomcat.
Hope this helps.
Thanks...

I've unzipped maven 2 package, set the M2_Home, M2, PATH variables and tested maven with mvn --version ...I dont see .m2/repository folder created.
I've edited settings.xml in conf folder adding some profiles for nexus. when I run a job in jenkins. It fails and it doesn't download any dependencies from nexus and still no repository folder is created in .m2 directory
let me know whats going wrong here
Check here
/var/lib/jenkins/.m2/
In most cases you just need to go to your project main directory (the one with master pom.xml) and run the following command:
mvn clean install
It will by default download any necessary artifacts into your local maven repository creating the folders if does not exist yet.
I have a EAR -
This EAR contains multiple WAR
Inside these WAR files there is a common JAR which is getting downloaded within each WAR file.
I want to remove this common JAR file into a shared Library. Also i want the latest version of JAR file everytime i rebuild my WAR, I am using Tomcat in Dev and Websphere min production.
We are using IVY for dependency management, Now. I have removed the common jar from the war file, but i dont know how to access the latest version of jar and download it in the shared library everytime i restart my server.
Can anyone help on this.?

You'll need to add a dependency to your ivy.xml file, something along the lines of:
<dependency org="com.orgname" name="jarname" rev="latest.release"/>
Is this a JAR file you make yourself, or is it publicly available? If you make it yourself, you will have to publish it in a repository somewhere in your system.
I have a module for which I want a jar to be created. So, here is what I do:
Adding a jar artifact, using the "From module with dependencies ..." option
In "Jar files from libraries" I select "copy to the output directory and link via manifest"
Leave all the defaults.
After that I can build the jar and all the dependencies would be placed near it in the same directory. So far so good.
Now I wish all the dependencies to be placed in a separate directory near the final jar. So, I repeat the same steps, but this time I create a new directory under the node in the artifact Output Layout tab (using the "Create Directory" button). Next I drag all the dependencies onto the new folder and apply the changes.
On the surface, everything is cool - the dependencies are indeed placed in the dedicated directory, but the MANIFEST.MF file is never updated! It should reference the dependencies via the new directory. As of now, the produced jar cannot be run - its dependencies are not visible.
This is unlike Eclipse, which does make sure the manifest file is correct when exporting a project as jar.
How can I workaround this problem, given that:
I want all the dependencies in a dedicated folder.
I want to use IntelliJ IDEA
I do not want to edit the manifest file manually.
I am using the latest download of the IntelliJ IDEA for windows - 11.1.2, build 117.418
Thanks.
At the moment you have to update the classpath manually in the artifact configuration dialog so that it includes the subdirectory:
I've created an issue for this limitation, please star/vote.
I am using Maven with Nexus for building my project with hudson ci. Everytime when I am deploying a new snapshot artifact he is doing this with a unique version in nexus. Which is OK for me as Nexus is giving me always the latest version.
Now I looked into the war file of my project which is using this snapshot dependency and its having the following jar file in its lib directory which is absolutely not fine:
framework-client-1.1-20120302.141044-3.jar
The problem is that I am using EBean as an ORM and I need to specify the jar name in the ebean.properties to let him know where to find its models.
How can I prevent such behaviour so that the latest snapshot dep is always call framework-client-1.1-SNAPSHOT.jar?
Thank you!
Just rename the jar in the war file to whatever name you like. Details are here
Renaming Maven dependency in WAR's WEB-INF/lib folder
I finally have my application in IntelliJ and deploying to JBoss. I'd like to get hot deploy working but it looks like I need to understand how IntelliJ and JBoss interact.
When I build my project in IntelliJ and then start JBoss, the ear file does not appear in the deploy directory so I assume that there is some magic that IntelliJ does so that JBoss reads from a different folder. What is happening during this step?
Thanks :)
I know this is an old and apparently answered question, but unfortunately the links provided in the accepted answer didn't give me the simple details I was looking for. For anyone also trying to understand how IntelliJ IDEA deploys your exploded war to JBoss without copying files to the deployments folder, here's what I've found while deploying locally from IDEA 14 (EAP) to JBoss 7.1.1.Final:
After you've created an "exploded war" artifact for your project (or it has automatically been created for you), IDEA will build your provided sources and place the output in the directory set in the artifact options (you can change this setting to place the output inside the deployments folder inside your jboss installation).
IDEA will update your JBoss configuration file (/standalone/configuration/standalone.xml) and add a "deployment" node inside the deployments section. This entry simply defines a name, a runtime name and the exploded war root folder for your project, which will point to the output directory of your artifact set in IDEA.
When JBoss is started (either manually or from your run/debug configuration in IDEA), it will automatically deploy your artifact. Be warned that if your files are in the output directory of your project and you clean it, JBoss will still try to find the directory, thus encountering errors in your next attempt to start it: org.jboss.as.server.deployment.DeploymentUnitProcessingException: Failed to mount deployment content, Failed to process phase STRUCTURE of deployment and java.io.FileNotFoundException to name a few.
Please refer to the documentation.
Basically, you need an exploded Artifact configuration with the directory name ending with .ear.
Build | Make performs hot deployment as well as Update action (which is configurable and can update only resources, resources and classes, optionally redeploy or restart the server).
Instead of copying your application to JBoss, IDEA runs it with appropriate parameters so that it uses Artifact directory instead. Configuration is very flexible and you can just change the artifact directory location to reside under JBoss directory.
