Versions: 11.0

Found In Build/Fixed In Build: CF11_Final /

Priority/Frequency: Normal / All users will encounter

Vote Count: 0

Problem Description:

After the EAR file was generated via ColdFusion 11, our customized web.xml which was configured in order to comply to our security procedures was replaced by the default ColdFusion web.xml. This issue has been observed when ColdFusion is installed as an EAR file on JBoss Application Server. 

Steps to Reproduce:

*Go to ColdFusion Administrator 
*Click on Packaging & Deployment and choose J2EE Archives
*Configure the different paths correctly and click submit to generate the EAR file
* Download the generated EAR and check the web.xml

Actual Result:

The web.xml generated in the EAR file was the default Coldfusion web.xml

Expected Result:

The web.xml generated in the EAR file must be our customized xml file. 

Any Workarounds:

Currently we have manually amended the exported EAR file using third party tools and continue with the deployments.

web.xml is default one . This should change according to the configured path .

When we create an EAR file, the ‘jee-archive-web.xml’ present in the WEB-INF directory of CF is copied as the ‘web.xml’ of the EAR file. Also, the original ‘web.xml’ present in the WEB-INF of CF is not touched or overwritten. Hence, any changes that need to go in the EAR’s web.xml, should be made in the ‘jee-archive-web.xml’ in the WEB-INF of CF.

Can you clarify the status of this issue? It appears the solution for this is that jee-archive-web.xml needs to be modified as well to ensure that the current EAR file web.xml configuration is exported in the EAR file.

jee-archive-web.xml is included as web.xml in WAR . So, jee-archive-web.xml needs to be configured/modified (instead of web.xml )
