Migrating a webapp on Tomcat to JBoss

[Kermit Piper]

Hello,

I have an application that is running as separate JSPs and servlets in
the webapps directory in Tomcat 4.1. I need to migrate this to run on
our existing installation of JBoss 4.0.2. Can I simply copy the webapp
files from "C:\tomcat\webapps" directory to the
"C:\jboss\server\default\deploy" directory as a new "webapps.war" file?

I don't want to deploy to an .ear file. I need to keep the
directories exploded like we currently do on Tomcat running under
JBoss.

Any help, suggestion or point in the right direction would be greatly
appreciated. I looked for migration documentation on the Tomcat and
JBoss sites but couldn't really find anything to help guide me through
this.

Thanks,
KP

Yes if you create a WAR from your Tomcat files you should be able to
deploy it by dropping it in $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy. You DO
NOT need to deploy as an EAR. It should automagically deploy.

You may need to edit some XML config files but from memory this is
minimal at most....
