Hello,
I guess this discussion was being carried offline and i wanted to get the as many opinions as possible about this issue.
Currently, we provide the users with 2 methods of handling JBoss AS's deployments: 1. Download the zip file from jboss.org and deploy it wherever the user wishes. 2. Install a specially crafted RPM that is designed & destined to work with the ovirt-engine's RPM set of files. (This is a temporary deployment phase that will end when jboss will release their own set of RPMs)
in MHO, i think that the RPM deployment should be used ONLY when installing the ovirt-engine RPMs and not when using the ovirt-engine's git repository for development. especially since deployment to the file system of the host requires root permissions and this is not something that should be a consideration when you're developing code. I think that developers should use the JBoss zip package and deploy it locally, and NOT use the ovirt-engine-jbossas RPM.
opinions?
I totally agree. We can ease the process by maybe supplying a maven profile that downloads it for you automatically, and make all the proper configurations, but I don't see a reason to use our jboss RPM in a development environment. However, I expect developers to use the jboss offical RPM, when it will be available.
