We are using Websphere's wsadmin to deploy our application which is packaged as a .ear file, which takes more than an hour to deploy and start the server. Is there any suggested optimized tool to perform the deployment. which will help us in reduce the deployment timing.
Thanks in Advance!

It depends on your application and framework used. If every time during deployment you do ejb compile, it would be not too much options, and all time cost.
Consider the following:
use Rational RAD or RSA with build-in
optimized WebSphere Server.
use optimized settings for
developement in WebSphere admin console
enable auto-reload and use exploded
archive and directly copying files to
it
use external class-reloading tools
like JRebel
Are you stating that it takes 1 hour to deploy a single EAR file?
Where is the EAR file located? How big is the EAR file?
Where is wsadmin running from? (the same machine as the WAS Server or from a remote machine)?
If it is running from a remote machine, does it take long to transfer the EAR file to the actual WAS box?
Also why should the WAS Server be started for deploying your application?
I am assuming you are using a DM set up and the wsadmin is connecting to the DM?
Appreciate if you could clarify before people could assist you.

I am currently working on a web based application using Glassfish. Therefore I have to implement functionality, compile/package it (using maven), deploy the .war file on a glassfish server, test it and undeploy it again to start a new cycle.
My problem is, that Glassfish won't undeploy my .war file under Windows 7. Undeployment takes about 3 minutes and does not remove all deployed files in /glassfish/domains/myDomain/applications. It generates a .glassfishStaleFiles.
To deploy again, I first have to delete the content of /glassfish/domains/myDomain/applications entirely.
Obviously this takes too long and I need to do this many times a day while implementing.
BUT: It all works fine when using Ubuntu. Clean and fast undeployment and deployment.
Thanks in advance
This is a known issue with GlassFish, due to the way file handles are dealt with in Windows compared to Linux. If some process has a file open in Windows, then that will prevent deployment. There are lots of these edge cases in GlassFish many of which (perhaps all) have been fixed in Payara Server, which is derived from GlassFish. Payara Server is free, so I would recommend trying the latest version 4.1.2.174 to see if the issue is resolved there.
Here is an example of some of the fixes for these kinds of issues in Payara Server:

I am using jprofiler for the first time,
First I have downloaded JProfiler and then installed JProfiler.
Please help me how to configure jprofiler with jboss server.
We do not use jboss server default deployment,
We have specific deployment like C:\jboss-4.2.2.GA\server\test\,
Our application deploys in test folder,
How to use jprofiler to config test deployment folder?
You need to setup a "server integration" via Session -> Integration wizards -> New server integration or via the quick start menu.
Choose your server type and follow the widzard:
then choose the location of your startup script:
.
Hoping this helps you to start profiling,
Best wishes.

I was using Jboss 6 . I am wondering to see jboss 7 which does not have many folders that jboss 6 had. It will be helpful if someone explains the difference between the jboss 7 stand alone server and the previous versions.
AS7 is different in a lot of respects to its predecessors AS6,5. So it wont be possible to list down all the differences here.
to list supported technology related differences, refer to below table.
Some Major Differences: (Thanks for #Jyore for additions)
Modular (on-demand) class-loading
Addition of domain managed nodes (multiple JVM management)
All configuration is done in Standalone.xml for standalone mode and domain.xml for domain mode.
About the new DIRECTORY Structure
configuration : Configuration files for the standalone server that runs off of this installation. All configuration information for the running server is located here and is the single place for configuration modifications for the standalone server.
data :Persistent information written by the server to survive a restart of the server
deployments: End user deployment content can be placed in this directory for automatic detection and deployment of that content into the server's runtime.
NOTE: The server's management API is recommended for installing deployment content. File system based deployment scanning capabilities remain for developer convenience.
lib/ext : Location for installed library jars referenced by applications using the Extension-List mechanism
log : standalone server log files
tmp : location for temporary files written by the server
Apart from that I really dont want to duplicate information on web
There is a migration guide from AS5,AS6 to AS7. This can help you understand what are the config changes that are generally required to switch to AS7. it also points out what has significantly changed, highly recommend going through it.
Also You can read Getting Started with AS7, to know AS7 better
I'm trying to deploy my HelloWorld application in Windows Azure which was developed in Java using eclipse. The application working fine when I tested under tomcat and Azure sdk. I created hosted service in Window Azure Management Portal and deploy my application. It almost 3 hours and it still deploying.
I went to What Happens When You Deploy on Windows Azure? and checked but still unclear.Can anyone advice why it took so long to deploy and any suggestion how to make the deployment process more faster.
Please refer the image below.
I changed the startup.cmd, instead of copy my tomcat to azure i changed the startup.cmd to download the tomcat online. now its working fine.
Does you start-up script finish after tomcat start?
The instances will be marked as ready only after the start-up script finished, so if you start tomcat blocking the start-up script it won't reach this state unless tomcat crashes...
You should use "start" (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/start.mspx?mfr=true) command to start tomcat in a separated process allowing the start-up script to finish.
(In my memories the provided example in the eclipse plugin had the issue)
Sorry for this simple question but I seem not to find any other way than to publish a GWT app to Google App Spot. I'm sure there must be a way to do this.
I've got the development environment working on my local machine but I'd like to publish the solution to my ubuntu server running nginx.
Edit: Just thought of something... maybe I can just deploy the js-code to the ubuntu server? As simple as that? ;)
No you cant just deploy the js-code and html files to an ubuntu server and put it for apache to serve, well... unless your code only outputs hello world that is. Probably your GWT app is calling/using some other Java code that needs to be deployed in tomcat or jboss, is it? If that is the case, ie your GWT is in a war, then yes, just deploy that .war file to any container on any linux box.
Try to copy your .war into a jboss deploy dir.
Deploying to app spot is similar, ie uploading your .war to google. Read more here http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/1.6/DevGuideDeploying.html
Two options:
Run it in Eclipse
Run it with Ant
