2.2.2.  Using up2date / DVD

To install using up2date / DVD:

  1. up2date your installation and install the JVM as described above.

  2. Mount the Red Hat Application Stack V.1.2 DVD.

  3. Add the following line to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources to use up2date directly on the RPMs on the disk:

    dir RedHat-Application-Stack-V1 path_to_mounted_DVD/RedHat/RPMS
    
  4. Install JBoss AS:

    • For the Application Server (which includes an embedded Tomcat), run:

      up2date jbossas
      
  5. After the installation is complete, remove the line you added to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources in Step 3. Failure to do this will result in up2date producing warnings whenever you run up2date again without mounting the Red Hat Application Stack V.1.2 DVD.

Refer also to Chapter 4, Using JBoss AS below.

If you are upgrading from version 1.1 of Red Hat Application Stack, please note that the "jbossas-ejb3" package has now been obsoleted and it's contents merged into the main jbossas package. An "up2date jbossas" command will upgrade everything correctly.
