Jboss fuse with EAP container - jbossfuse

I am new to Jboss fuse. I went through several tuitorials regarding fuse.
JBoss Fuse combines several technologies like Apache Camel, Apache CXF, Apache ActiveMQ, Apache Karaf and Fabric8
in a single integrated distribution.
I have downloaded the installer from jboss site and installed in to jboss-EAP 6.4 . I checked the standalone.xml and didnt find any configuration regarding
Apache ActiveMQ, Apache Karaf and Fabric8.
My doubt is without these configurations how fuse will support messaging service and osgi ?
I am trying to use fuse in jboss-EAP 6.4 server as osgi.(fuse+server+osgi)
Please guide me.

JBoss EAP is for your web application. JBoss Fuse is the middleware and ActiveMQ is the message broker.
There is no ActiveMq in EAP as it's your Application Server where you run your web applications. You can use ActiveMq in EAP but it's not designed for that. However you can find an ActiveMq configuration in JBoss Fuse where is more suitable to use broker. JBoss Fuse isn't something you can use inside the EAP but it's a separate application that you can use WITH the EAP. So your question probably is "how to connect JBoss Fuse and JBoss EAP?" If so, then you can achieve that by using HTTP queries from EAP to Fuse for example.
About your doubt JBoss Fuse supports OSGi and by using Apache Camel inside your OSGi bundles you can use the ActiveMq component to connect and send/receive AMQ messages.
If you tell us more what you are trying to achieve using the JBoss ESB Stack probably we can help you more.
Best Regards

Cannot start web console of ActiveMQ Artemis embedded within JBoss EAP 7.2

I am new to messaging using ActiveMQ Artemis that is embedded within JBoss EAP 7.2. I have started JBoss EAP in full mode when the Active MQ Artemis broker is also started. but when I open http://localhost:8161, the web console of MQ is not starting up. Can you please guide me how to solve this problem?
The web console which runs on port 8161 by default is not included with JBoss EAP. That specific console run with ActiveMQ Artemis standalone. JBoss EAP has its own web console which runs on port 9990 by default. JBoss EAP also has its own management API, XML configuration, etc. for the embedded ActiveMQ Artemis instance.

How to do BPEL,BPM deployment in JBoss AS7/EAP

Jboss says to deploy BPEL applications in Either EAP or AS7 servers. I could nt deploy BPEL applications in Any of those servers. When searched in google, Some posts says Switchyard is better to use for BPEL or BPM applications and its been aquired by JBoss and release by JBoss as JBossFuse. I tried JBossFuse as well, JBossFuse cannot detect BPEL or BPM applications either through Eclipse. I have tried WSO2 and it was better than JBoss servers. I would like to use JBoss stack of products as it is a big community. Can someone suggest which is best server to deploy BPEL or BPM applications in Jboss servers.
Please provide links to download as well.
Now that RiftSaw (http://riftsaw.jboss.org/), which is the integration layer for Apache ODE with JBoss EAP/WildFly, is part of SwitchYard, SwitchYard is the only framework under JBoss umbrella that enables you to deploy/run BPEL applications.
https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/SWITCHYARD/BPEL
However, one thing you should note is that in SwitchYard BPEL applications can be developed only in the form of a SwitchYard service, so you also need to learn SwitchYard, which is a kind of ESB or integration framework on top of SCA & CDI/Camel. I wouldn't recommend BPEL compared to BPM for a new project, because the JBoss community for BPEL is not active. In contrast to Apache ODE, SwitchYard is not designed to run a plain BPEL application.
On the other hand, if you want to develop/deploy BPM applications on JBoss EAP/WildFly, then jBPM (http://www.jbpm.org/) is the option. As jBPM is the premier open-source BPM project and is being actively developed, it would be the best choice if you start a business process project.
As a bonus, if you want to use JBoss Fuse, there is an official integration pack for jBPM:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_JBoss_Fuse/6.2.1/html/Integration_Guide/index.html
Also note that JBoss Fuse includes SwitchYard, so you can develop/run BPEL SwitchYard services on both Karaf and EAP containers.
There was a trick with Jboss EAP 6.4 server not recognizing BPEL / BPM (Switchyard). When you install vanilla EAP 6.4 server , you wont have Fuse packages installed in it. They say you can work with fuse server, But fuse server wont be working as EAP server works from Eclipse(JBDS). So you need to install Fuse over your EAP server to recognize your BPEL/BPM or Swithyard applications.Check out below solution from Redhat website.

Visual Tooling for apache camel

Can I develop apache camel routes using Jboss developer studio or it is only to be used when we use Jboss Fuse ESB?
Previously I saw that Fuse IDE could be used for Camel development, but now I don't find it anymore.
Yes JBoss Tools for Apache Camel can be used for JBoss Fuse and as well Apache Camel. Fuse IDE is the former name, its now known part of JBoss Tools. You can install JBoss Tools in Eclipse and then install the integration tools that has the Camel editor.

What's the difference between JBoss ESB and JBoss HornetQ

Çould anyone explain me the difference b/W Jboss ESB and Jboss HornetQ? Do i need Jboss ESB to use JBoss HornetQ?
HornetQ is a Enterprise Grade JMS Messaging System.
JBoss ESB is a Enterprise Service Bus technology that can make use of a JMS Messaging System.
In the case of JBoss there is a bundled technology platform called JBoss SOA Platform that includes an installation of JBoss ESB and HornetQ Messaging into JBoss EAP 5.1.
In short: HornetQ doesn't use JBoss ESB. JBoss ESB can use HornetQ but its not required.

Deploy JBOSS FUSE 6 as service on application server

I want to deploy JBoss FUSE as war or in any other way on application server (Tomcat for example). In documentation for the old version (3.5) of FUSE there was described a simple way for doing that by running special maven project from examples folder.
But for later releases I just can't find any information about possibility of doing that. I thought that deploying ESB as a service on application server is standard way of working with it, but I only found tutorials for installing FUSE as standalone instance or system service.
I would like to know how can I deploy it or why I can't do this if thats the case.
This is no longer supported. JBoss Fuse 6.x is a standalone application that has its own container (based on Apache Karaf).
The current 6.x release requires running on top of Apache Karaf.
Though we have plans to make Fuse (that would be Fuse Fabric) container agnostic so you in the
future would be able to run Fuse on JBoss AS, Tomcat, Karaf, Standalone, in the cloud, etc. Though we focus on JBoss AS, Tomcat, and Karaf as the main containers at first we aim to support.
