how can i install jbpm 6 without using build.xml - jboss

Can anyone help me to install and configure JBPM by hand without using the script build.XML of the installer actually i have already jboss AS 7.1 server and i've installed jbpm plugin for eclipse Kepler. And when I run the hello world project I got an error " runtimeManagerFactory was not initialized " even when I add the persistence .XML under the META-INF

If you want to manually install jBPM on as7, you'll need to download the kie-wb distribution for as7 and install that into as7. You might want to make sure to configure the datasource and security domain correctly.
For eclipse, you can just install the plugins from the update site directly, and then configure a jBPM runtime. I'm not sure which "Hello world" project you're referring to? I'd recommend creating a new jBPM project, that contains a (simple or advanced) example out of the box.

JBPM6 is an open source document track system,which is used to track the documents. We can also install jbpm & jboss.
Use this link below, it would be helpful for you to install jboss and jbpm.

How to run/debug java web service project in eclipse

I have a Java Web Service project which was just handed over to me by a colleague who just resigned (no one is assisting me in my new company). Im new to Java (J2EE) and my background is .Net + frontend + azure so I am pretty much very confused with setting up and running the java project. Also, Since my background is .Net Im referencing everything with how things work in Visual Studio from running a project, setting up a project to setting up and debugging a WCF project which I realized now is very different from eclipse + java.
I would really appreciate if someone could explain to me how I can run this project which is supposedly a java web service (as I was told)?
First I have a project that is like this:
Im assuming that the project boxed as blue is the webservice (and the rest are just libraries)? Is this correct? if so how do I run and debug the project using eclipse
Second when I click on debug as -> debug on server this is all I see:
Another colleague told me to install JBOSS (I haven't installed a server in eclipse) because that is what they used. Is there good documentation (step-by-step guide) on how to install JBOSS to run in eclipse. Im assuming that JBOSS + eclipse is like IIS express + Visual studio. Are there also other alternatives to JBOSS + eclipse like perhaps tomcat + ecplise that I can configure.
I really really find it hard to setup the java web service project in eclipse I have little to no prior experience with java j2ee programming especially with web services so any clarifications with my questions would be much appreciated. To sum up:
How would I really know that the project is a java webservice?
If so, how do I run the project and host the project using debugging in eclipse with tomcat or jboss?
I would appreciate if anyone can point me to the right direction of figuring out the source code
From here we can only guide you, you will have to go through some tutorials to understand how java projects work.
Your project is a webservice project according to your web.xml file because its having context params for rest.
the context param sets a front url to your webservice which in this case is gametime.
Check these tutorials and you will understand how it works
http://www.mkyong.com/tutorials/jax-rs-tutorials/
Create simple examples given in the above tutorial and then you can execute your's program
Jboss is a application server which we use to run our app.
You can install jboss in eclipse or you can use it externally also.
To install eclipse and jboss you can follow the link
http://theopentutorials.com/tutorials/java-ee/installing-jboss-tools-in-eclipse/
The other option is to download eclipse and jboss seperately
and use them.
Go to jbosshome/bin
If you download both of them seperately
then in that case for jboss
Invoke the add-user.sh or add-user.bat script. ...
Choose to add a Management user. ...
Choose the realm for the user. ...
Enter the desired username and password. ...
Choose whether the user represents a remote JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 server instance. ...
Enter additional users. ...
Create users non-interactively.
After this go to eclipse and follow steps of below link to add jboss to eclipse
http://www.mastertheboss.com/eclipse/jboss-eclipse/jboss-and-eclipse
A Java web application among other things has a predefined directory structure including folders named WEB-INF, WEB-CONTENT etc.
On how to deploy a web application to Tomcat via Eclipse you can follow the steps in this tutorial.

Eclipse Luna with JBoss Tools does not export libraries

I'm attempting to upgrade our environment to Eclipse Luna w/ JBoss Tools from our current Indigo instance. Most things are sorted well enough, but I'm running into a wall when deploying our application to a JBoss server within Eclipse.
As far as I can see, the lib/ directory of the .ear file generated contains none of the transitive dependencies from maven that we would normally expect to see, and as a result the application does not deploy or run correctly on the server. For clarity, we use the 'use workspace metadata' deployment option on the JBoss server within Eclipse.
By contrast, if I right click on the relevant project within Eclipse and say Export... .ear file, the resulting .ear contains all the .jars that I'd expect inside the lib/ folder (there's over 50 of these things, so it's pretty easy to spot the difference). Subsequently dropping the .ear into the deploy directory of JBoss and starting a server manually has the application working fine.
Has anyone ever encountered this sort of issue within JBoss Tools / Luna, and if so what steps were taken to try and remediate it?
Cheers for any help.
Dave.
EDIT: For what it's worth, this is a JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.x server instance, and we're using JBoss EAP 5.2

Liferay portlet development on JBoss AS 6

I am trying to create a new Portlet project (basically a portlet for Liferay) in Eclipse (Helios with Liferay SDK installed). I use JBoss AS 6.10.final and Liferay 6.05.
The problem is that everytime I try to create new portlet, it asks me for Runtime Enviroment. I want this enviroment to be JBoss AS, but Eclipse only suggests different Tomcat distributions. I dont have Tomcat bundle installed and I am not going to since it will run on JBoss AS.
Liferay is already installed on JBoss and running (when I start the JBoss AS, I can access the liferay portal page - it has all jars and wars on correct places in AS).
I havent found any tutorial how to make this work. Could someone perhaps provide some step by step guide or direct me to any existing one? Thank you!
PS: I hope that my question is not too confusing, if so, I will try to edit it and make myself clearer...
I have finally figured it out:
I changed the build.username.properties file
app.server.portal.dir=c:\\Programs\\jboss-6.1.0.Final-ESB-4.12\\server\\default\\deploy\\liferay-portal-6.0.5.war
app.server.lib.global.dir=c:\\Programs\\jboss-6.1.0.Final-ESB-4.12\\common\\lib
app.server.deploy.dir=c:\\Programs\\jboss-6.1.0.Final-ESB-4.12\\server\\default\\deploy
app.server.type=jboss
app.server.dir=c:\\Programs\\jboss-6.1.0.Final-ESB-4.12
so it points to the directory with liferay war files. Then I had to check in Eclipse that I do not want this file to be overwritten again and it works just fine. I can deploy all projects to JBoss using Liferay SDK!

Integrating JBOSS and Eclipse

I have JBOSS server. I used to make web applications using just notepad++. I used to create the necessary folders like web-inf and files like web.xml. For larger projects doing all this and manually compiling has become cumbersome. I want to use eclipse for that. I saw this tutorial - http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/community/tutorials/BuildJ2EEWebApp/BuildJ2EEWebApp.html . But I don't understand how to make a server. I already have a server. What I want to do is write JSPs and Servlets in eclipse and the build should automatically be deployed in jboss server.
How to to this?
Install JBoss Tools
After that follow the instructions from here to get started and deploy apps to JBoss Server.
To automatically deploy apps after the build you could use a build tool such as ANT or Maven.
I wrote a tutorial for this some time ago: Setting up web development environments with Eclipse
It shows how to setup JBoss within Eclipse (in addition, it also shows how to setup Tomcat and Weblogic), and also shows how to build a simple sample Servlet to verify the proper installation.
If you already use JBoss on the server side, then have a look at the client side as well: http://www.jboss.org/developer
(I haven't tried it myself, but...)
Just open eclipse then go to:
"Help-> Check For Updates" It will check for eclipse updates and installs new availables.
Now "Help -> Eclipse Market Place" Search for "Jboss tools" from search result select one(as your eclipse version) and install it. It will add adapter for new jboss versions.
Now add new server from server view select Jboss version then next add your Home directory of jboss. Then finish.
Step 1 is optional but it sometime it helps.

Cannot find OpenPortal Portlet Container 2.x when creating a new server runtime environment in eclipse

I just started learning portlet and got stuck in the first place. I have installed JavaEE 6 SDK, Eclipse Helios and GlassFish Server 3.0.1. I also successfully configured OpenPortal Portlet Container (OPC) for GlassFish by running command:
java -jar portlet-container-configurator.jar
The problem come up when I wanted to create a new server runtime environment of OPC, there was no "OpenPortal Portlet Container 2.x" node like the tutorial said. I googled and found that I needed to install Eclipse Portal Pack but the link was dead.
Any suggestion, please?
Best Regard.
If you want to develop portlets, I strongly recommend downloading Apache Pluto instead of using the open portlet container; you can download a version of Tomcat bundled with Pluto from their site: http://portals.apache.org/pluto
Actually, Pluto has a few quirks that you need to get past (for example, it wants you to run an 'assembly' step to add some entries to your web.xml) but once you do it is probably the best way. You could also try Liferay or JBoss' GateIn for development, but if you are ultimately targeting a vendor supplied platform like WebSphere, you might find that these actually have features that aren't as portable, whereas Pluto is really just a simple implementation of the portlet spec.
I have found the .jar file on Internet. Thanks for watching.
