JBoss is an Application Server, which is support fully JEE (known as formally J2EE) specifications. It support EJB2/3, JSP/Servlet, JMS, JSF and other Java Enterprise Environment technologies. Other Application servers are WebLogic(Oracle), WebSphere(IBM), GlassFish(Oracel) and so on.
At this time I am writing, you can download JBOSS stable version and latest versions from the following site:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jboss/files/JBoss/JBoss-6.0.0.Final (Direct link from SourceForge)
I downloaded JBoss 6.0.0 Final (stable version). Latest version 7.0.0.Beta3 at the moment.
And then upzip the downloaded file under c drive(Any folder you want) and then you will get the C:\jboss-6.0.0.Final directory. You can see several folders under it. Web root directory is install_dir/server/default and you can find install_dir/server/default/ROOT.war. When you goto http://localhost:8080, JBoos will display install_dir/server/default/ROOT.war/index.html.
Main directories in JBoss are like following:
Main directories in JBoss are like following:
- bin: contains startup and shutdown and other system-specific scripts.
- client: stores configuration and JAR files which may be needed by a Java client application or an external web containor. You can select archives as required or use jbossall-client.jar
- docs: contains the XML DTDs used in JBoss for reference (these are also a useful source of documentation on JBoss configuration specifics). There are other examples.
- lib: JAR files which are needed to run the JBoss microkernel. Do not add your own JAR files here.
- server: web root directory. Each of the subdirectories in here is a different server configuration. This configuration is selected by passing -c <config-name> to the run script.
In the index page, you can visit admin page clicking link or http://localhost:8080/admin-console/login.seam. Default admin id and password is admin.
