docker jboss7 war commit. Server boot failed in an unrecoverable manner

Question

Is there some way to deploy .war files into Jboss-as7 running inside a docker container

Because my jboss server seems to fail after a docker commit.

Answer 1

I came up with another workaround.

1. Enter running docker container
   for example using this command
   docker exec -it jboss_1 bash

2. Execute this while in container:

   cd /usr/local/share/jboss/standalone/configuration/standalone_xml_history/
   rm -rf current
   exit

Various jboss versions might have different directories with standalone_xml_history. For example on Jboss 6.4.0 it is /opt/jboss/EAP-6.4.0/domain/configuration/domain_xml_history/

Answer 2

Not a real solution, but a workaround:

1. ssh in
2. supervisorctl stop jboss
3. mv /usr/local/share/jboss/standalone/configuration/standalone_xml_history/current /usr/local/share/jboss/standalone/configuration/standalone_xml_history/20140116-034913551 (or some other timestamp)
4. exit the ssh
5. docker commit -run='{"Cmd": ["/usr/bin/supervisord"]}' `dl` secondversion

That image (secondversion) then runs fine if you start it up.

I had the same problem and fixed it by deleting

/standalone/configuration/standalone_xml_history/current

Try adding this line in your docker file

RUN rm -rf /usr/local/share/jboss/standalone/configuration/standalone_xml_history/current
