Description Nikoleta Hlavickova 2015-01-15 10:14:23 UTC
EAP 6.4 quickstarts reference common instructions located at https://github.com/jboss-developer/jboss-developer-shared-resources/tree/master/guides. However, the common instructions reference old EAP documentation.

For example:
More detailed Maven configuration instructions can be found in the Development Guide for JBoss Enterprise Application Platform located on the Customer Portal at https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Application_Platform/
-- EAP 6.4 documentation will be moved under new product name which means the URL will point to older documentation. The product name should be changed to Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, too

For information on how to configure Maven and Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio for use with the quickstarts, see the Getting Started Guide for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform.
-- contains URL pointing to https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Application_Platform/6.3/html-single/Getting_Started_Guide/index.html

There might be more occurrences, I have only come across those 2.

EAP 6.4 documentation is not available yet and I don't know the new URL either. Instructions should be updated once the location of EAP 6.4 documentation is decided.

Comment 1 sgilda 2015-01-15 14:02:53 UTC
I can not modify the instructions until the documentation is publicly available.

Comment 3 sgilda 2015-02-16 19:33:07 UTC
The 6.4 beta docs are available, so I updated the documentation URLs to use them.

Comment 4 Nikoleta Hlavickova 2015-02-27 12:15:34 UTC
Verified with EAP 6.4.0.ER3.

Duriong verification I noticed that there are both USE_JBDS.md and USE_JDBS.md at https://github.com/jboss-developer/jboss-developer-shared-resources/tree/master/guides - the incorrect one should be removed.

Comment 5 sgilda 2015-02-27 13:49:12 UTC
Nikoleta, unfortunately, the JBoss EAP 6.3 quickstarts shipped with that incorrect link so I'm not sure it's a good idea to remove it. It's better than a broken link.
