Created attachment 772213 [details] Patch If you look at jbossas/modules/org/rhq you'll find some pretty long path names, which are annoying when you want to describe where things are. Also on Win* there is the issue with total path name length. The attached patch will shorten rhq-server-startup-subsystem to server and rhq-enterprise-server-ejb3.jar to rhq-server.jar as a starting point
> rhq-server-startup-subsystem to server we should at least make it more descriptive. "server" and "rhq-server.jar" will be confusing (if we tell people "look in 'server'" I'm sure people will then ask "server" or "rhq-server.jar"?). I think "server" should be renamed to something like "startup" or "rhq-startup". Its the startup subsystem that is responsible for deploying the ear.
Created attachment 772380 [details] Patch 2 - renamed module to server-startup Attached is the same patch as before, except it renames the startup module "server-startup" rather than "server" to make it clearer what it is and makes it more descriptive.
Created attachment 772387 [details] Patch 3 - renamed module to server-startup turns out, the dev container was not correct in the original patch, or my second one. I needed to fix it. attached is the latest patch that should work. still testing...
git commit to master: 957781e62543ff5023c4b59567ee76c6ab2a9d9a the ejb3 jar is now "rhq-server.jar" and the startup module name is "server-startup" to test, just look in the file system after unzipping the distro and make sure you have: rhq-server/modules/org/rhq/server-startup and you do NOT have: rhq-server/modules/org/rhq/rhq-enterprise-server-startup-subsystem In addition, make sure you have: rhq-server/modules/org/rhq/server-startup/main/deployments/rhq.ear/rhq-server.jar and you do NOT have rhq-server/modules/org/rhq/server-startup/main/deployments/rhq.ear/rhq-enterprise-server-ejb3.jar
Awesome - even if I am not completely convinced with the "startup" name, as this also contains the ear (and the downloads etc). But a huge improvement to the past.
