Download jboss 7.1.0 Beta1b (http://download.jboss.org/jbossas/7.1/jboss-as-7.1.0.Beta1b/jboss-as-7.1....) - There is a newer version, but it has issues in the REST-API, so we decided to work with the beta version until a proper fix will be released. > 2.

Build the engine, with profiles "dep" and "setup". This will put all the proper configuration files, postgresql driver and make all the other needed changes in Jboss in order to make it work properly > mvn clean install -Psetup,dep ....... > 5. In order to run Jboss go to JBOSS_HOME/bin and run ./standalone.sh > 6. Look inside the JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone.conf file in order to enable jboss debugging (just uncomment the line JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n")

It supports both standalone deployment, and domain deployment. We use the standalone one. > 2. Stuff related to the standalone mode can be found in the JBOSS_HOME/standalone directory: > * configuration - contains the main configuration file called standalone.xml file, plus some other configuration files > * deployments - that's where your deployments should be.
