Hi,

I would like to add additional deployment directory in my jboss 6 installation. I read ( http://community.jboss.org/wiki/JBossAS6-DeployApplicationInAnExternalDirectory ) that i need to change only conf/bootstrap/profile.xml.

I did it the following way:

  <list elementClass="java.net.URI">

  <value>${jboss.server.home.url}deploy2</value>

  <value>${jboss.server.home.url}deploy</value>

  </list>

Unfortunately it's not enough and I get following error during deployment:

11:16:11,575 ERROR [AbstractKernelController] Error installing to Real: name=vfs:///D:/dev/jboss-6.0.0.Final/server/myApp/deployext/myApp.web-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war state=PreReal mode=Manual requiredState=Real: org.jboss.deployers.spi.DeploymentException: Failed to create web module

Whenever I put my wars/jars back into the default deploy directory everything works fine.

Thanks in advance for any hint.
