| | deployment with ant/maven
With remote deployment, you can use an ant or maven task to deploy
a .war file to a running Resin instance. This will require some configuration
of the resin.xml to enable deployment. For security reasons, remote
deployment and administration is disabled by default, so you will need
to enable the features to use them.
- Enable remote administration (the HMTP service).
- Add at least one admin user in AdminAuthenticator.
- Enable the remote deploy service.
The first step is enabling remote administration, so you can manage
the server remotely, either with eclipse, or ant, or maven.
If disabled, Resin will ignore all remote administration requests.
The disabled error message will be something like "Failed to connect
to HMTP because HMTP service has not been enabled." In
the resin.xml, the <resin:RemoteAdminService> tag enables remote
administration:
Example: resin.xml enable remote administration
<resin xmlns="http://caucho.com/ns/resin"
xmlns:resin="urn:java:com.caucho.resin">
...
<resin:AdminAuthenticator>
<resin:user name="harry" password="..."/>
</resin:AdminAuthenticator>
<cluster id="">
<resin:RemoteAdminService/>
<resin:DeployService/>
...
</cluster>
</resin>
The second step is adding at least one administration user, so only
authorized administrators can update the server. The <resin:AdminAuthenticator> tag configures
administrators. If no administrators are added, Resin will reject any
remote administration requests.
The third step is enabling the deploy service itself with the
<resin:DeployService> tag. The deploy service is responsible for
managing uploads of new applications and distributing them to the
servers in the cluster.
When troubleshooting, it's helpful to know that Resin uses BAM/HMTP
to connect the deployment client with the deployment server. The
<resin:RemoteAdminService> enables BAM/HMTP. If the server is down
or the remote admin service isn't enabled, the error messages will
complain that the BAM/HMTP connection is not allowed.
