How to use drools 6.1 final version on JBoss 7.1.1 - jboss

We have been using Drools guvnor 5.5.0 on JBoss 7.0. Now we want to use drools 6.1 final version. We have deployed all the jar files but unable to access UI as could not find war file. We got war file for 5.5.0 version from http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/maven2/org/drools/guvnor-distribution-wars/5.5.0.Final/ but unable to find same for 6.1.final version. Tried to use kie-drools-wb-distribution but not working.
Can anyone tell the way to use drools 6.1 version or to get the UI to create rules?

Summarizing Goodbye Guvnor. Hello Drools Workbench.
Along with the functional and feature changes we have restructured the
Guvnor github repository to better reflect our new architecture.
Guvnor has historically been the web application for Drools. It was a
composition of editors specific to Drools, a back-end repository and a
simplistic asset management system.
Things are now different.
For Drools 6.0 the web application has been extensively re-written to
use UberFire that provides a generic Workbench environment, a Metadata
Engine, Security Framework, a VFS API and clustering support.
Guvnor has become a generic asset management framework providing
common services for generic projects and their dependencies. Drools
use of both UberFire and Guvnor has born the Drools Workbench.
Drools Workbench (drools-wb)
https://github.com/droolsjbpm/drools-wb
Drools Workbench is the end product for people looking for a web application that is composed of all Drools related editors, screens and services. It is equivalent to the old Guvnor.
You can download from http://download.jboss.org/drools/release/6.1.0.Final/kie-drools-wb-distribution-6.1.0.Final.zip

I hope this help.

New version of Drools-Guvnor

I am currently using Drools-Guvnor 5.5 on JBoss 7 for Business rule management system.
I am planing to update both of them. So jBoss goes to WildFly - 8.
Now what about Drools-Guvnor? From what I understood it is now called Workbench. Am I correct or are they different.
I did download Workbench war file for WildFly 8 but after seeing it I don't think it is what I want.
Any help is appriciated :)
I read in the JBoss forums that Guvnor is now the KIE (Drools) Workbench. I am not sure I completely understand this but it seems that Guvnor no longer exists and has been replaced by this workbench thing.
If you look on Drools.org there is a symbol for the Guvnor software (the acropolis type of government building with all of the columns). This symbol is next to the words, "Drools Workbench (web UI for authoring and management)", which I think means that Drools now contains this software that I think was a separate program in the past.

IBM websphere to JBOSS migration

I want to migrate EAR and WAR applications from WAS 8 to JBOSS AS 7.
Can any one provide any Check List for the same?
There's an automated pluggable rule-based migration tool JBoss Windup. Run the tool and get a report of what needs to be done to migrate.
You can also customize this tool to cover your specific code patterns you need to migrate. Sharing your custom rules back to the community is highly appreciated.
Have fun :)
WAS has tool Application Migration toolkit to check application being migrated from WebLogic /Jboss to WAS , not sure if such tool exist for JBOSS

How to setup Jboos Drools in Eclipse

I am trying to do the eclipse set up for writing the Business Rules and exporting them to repository
Can any one explain how to setup jboos Drools/BRMS in eclipse for Writing Business Rules and exporting them to the Guvnor repository.
Did you check the drools.org official documentation?
You need to install the drools plugin via the Eclipse Market place and then have a running instance of guvnor (I believe that with the 5.5 version it will work).

Eclipse plugins for Spring / Hibernate development?

I have a running dynamic web project in Eclipse (Java EE + Maven + Spring). I am at the point where I need to integrate a persistence layer and want to use Hibernate with a MySql database.
I am wondering what plugins would be useful for me at this point? For Hibernate should I install hibernate tools or is it not necessary? Are then any plugins that are most widely use for connecting / exploring database connections that would be appropriate for the type of project I am working on? Thanks.
Hibernate Tools is definitely a nice plugin (that provides wizards, a nice console useful to setup the HQL queries, a mapping editor, etc). I'm actually tempted to say: why not using it? I use it in conjunction with the database support provided by the Eclipse Data Tools Platform (that is included in the Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers or available via the update manager). In your case, I would maybe just consider using SpringSource Tools Suite as base instead of a vanilla Eclipse.
Update: As reminded by BalusC in a comment, the Hibernate Tools also include a database reverse engineering tool which is maybe the most powerful feature. I should have mentioned it, this is now fixed.
You can look at http://fast-code.sourceforge.net/ as well. You can create FooService and FooServiceImpl and the configurations just by typing foo. It has nice way to create unit tests as well.

Which XQuery engine JBoss AS 7 supports?

I am working on AVOS to camunda migration project and getting issues while using existing XQuery files in JBoss AS 7. Which engine/version of XQuery, JBoss AS 7 supports?
As far as I know, JBoss EAP does not provide any XQuery processor. It however embeds Xalan which provides an XSLT processor.
RedHat would probably propose you to use their JBoss Fuse product to implement XQuery transformations. I've never used the product so I won't be able to give you any feedback on it.
Of course a viable alternative is adding an XQuery processor like Saxon to your application or platform yourself. If you want to deploy it to the platform instead of to each application, see the module mechanism.
