Hi,

has anybody experience in deploying scout applications as a web app in Apache ServiceMix ?

According to the documentation of Apache ServiceMix there is a possiblity to activate the "war" feature (support for deploying WAR files with Servlet and JSPs into a Jetty server) into the Karaf instance.

Would this work for a Scout Application ?

Kind regards

Tore

Well I don't know much about ServiceMix but this issue seems interesting. Why would we want to deploy a war into an osgi container? There should be some other simpler way no? I might try to integrate and will report if I have any success.

The war we build is a really fat/standalone war: it contains the whole OSGi Runtime (equinox) encapsulated in the war using the servlet bridge approach.

No idea if the Eclipse Scout Server works in another OSGi container than equinox.

Might be advantageous to try Karaf... just to know.

Anyway I was talking about this: http://www.theserverside.com/news/1365049/Eclipse-Equinox-and-OSGi using approach 3 (scroll down a bit, 3 diagrams) - jetty is loaded as a bundle not used as a container.. Servletbridge is approach 2. I was trying around a bit and almost succeeded using approach 3, just had some dependancy problems (I think). Also when I check the command line it really seems eclipse is running project via the approach 3. Problem is though, I cannot rip the configs out from eclipse, all the folders and temp files from command line (I am checking ps ax) vanish before I can get there (or maybe are never there). Oh well, back to investigation Smile

Thanks for the link... It is a good illustration of the different patterns that can be used.

This conversation reminds me of a slide proposed by a coworker to illustrate how a scout application is running:

index.php/fa/18716/0/

The orange arrows represent connections to another system (from a server point of view). Sometimes the integration of the different system is difficult (it depends of the project you are involved in).

I am glad if you can continue the discussion here. I will appreciate reading your findings here.

I am not an expert in this domain (running the server, integration with other system). In all my projects I could use what scout recommends out of the box. I know that at BSI, we have experts in this domain (because this is something we have to deal with in our productive project).
