Openshift - ROOT.war deployed but no app - eclipse

Question

That's what I see in my logs:

But when I go to the root url I see the default Welcome to your JBoss AS application on OpenShift page. I am not using maven. Tried to follow the instructions for Jboss (jboss-as-7.1.1.Final) from this page - did not delete the src folder though. What do I need to do ? Do I need to delete the src folder (?) and add a deployments folder ?

EDIT: hmm, the war is 24k which is little - the project is a regular java web application project - runs fine locally both on glassfish and jboss

Answer 1

I would accept an answer telling me how to do it from eclipse (edit: asked here) but till then producing manually the war (right click on the project then export as war) and then scp'ing straight from git Bash (msysgit, mingwin):
$ scp "~/ROOT.war" SHA#APP-DOMAIN.rhcloud.com:/var/lib/\
openshift/SHA/app-root/dependencies/jbossas/deployments
as detailed here (detailed is an euphemism) solved it.
For the gory details of finally setting this up see here

Answer 2

This question is pretty old so I am sure that the problem has been solved, however I was having the same problem and I am sure someone else will do as well. In my case the git wasn't tracking the src folder in my local repository.
You just need to open up a terminal in your git repo folder and type git status to show which folders are not being tracked, then git add [file/foldername] and finally republish it.
