[ovirt-users] jboss deployments timeout (was: getting 404 after fresh install of oVirt 3.4 on CentOS 6.5 (+ solution))

[Yedidyah Bar David]

I am the reporter of the below bz, and the author of the fix [1]. However, I
don't know jboss at all - just searched around, found somewhere the option
'deployment-timeout' (not sure where, probably a quick search can find this)
and verified that the fix works. It seems like neither any of the reviewers
of the change know enough about jboss to do some more analysis. Can anyone
else, that knows jboss, please look at this issue? Specifically:
1. Was anything related to the maximum time for deployments changed in relevant
jboss versions?
2. What is affected? What isn't?
- fedora 19/20(/21?), el6
- ovirt repos (3.3, 3.4, master) and minimum requirements

John: If this is reproducible for you, you might want to try the fix [1]
(linked to from the bug). If you do, please report - what exact versions
(OS, jboss, ovirt, etc) you used, and (according to the logs) how long did
the deployment take. Thanks!
