This is a directory that the app server polls and upon finding a new version of a ear (or war) redeploys it over the top of the enterprise app (or webapp). Of course there are other ways of doing it but with this approach you simply need to copy each new version of your ear to the app server's hot deploy directory to have it re-deployed. Let me know if you need more details. HTH _Paul Hi Lena,

Thank you for this great article. I am new to Development services. Can you please provide more description on how to deploy the ear to app server. Thank you. Hi Paul. Thank you for this great article.
I am new to Development services. Can you please provide more description on how to deploy the ear to app server.

Thank you.

You add a copy of dfc.properties to your project and place it under source control along with all your other engineering artifacts. Then when you export the service archive, you must select the dfc.properties file as a runtime resource. This will tell the dfs package builder to include it in the ear.

Make sure you have the project open and a resource within the project selected, as one naturally would be if you are actively working on it. Then choose Project->Build Project. Or Project->Build All if you want to build all projects in your worksapce. You have to manually invoke the project’s builders.

As a result when I call this service it gives me an authentication error. Also, when the project is build through Composer (using DFS builder) it does not package the dfc.properties into the ear.

In case the "Build Automatically" is not turned on, how do I start the DFS Builder so that it can create the artifacts and package the service. Thank you Thanks for the useful tutorial

I've seen something like this before when a user had created or imported his projects through a subst r: drive. Composer was therefore using r: rooted file paths but ant was still trying to use c: rooted file paths. Perhaps you have somehting similar. I have emailed you at your yahoo address with more detail. Le's resolve over that channel and then I will follow up here with a post so others can benefit. Thanks _Paul Hi Mohit,
