title: Deploying WAR files on JBoss 6
body: <p>On JBoss4, I deploy my WAR files by copying it file to the  /server/default/deploy/webapps/ folder. (I had created the webapps folder myself) and everything is fine. Once the file is copied, JBoss automatically explodes the file in the tmp folder and deploys the web application.</p>
  
  <p>But now that I have upgraded to JBoss 6, this method does not work. I have to extract my WAR file manually, so that JBoss can load the .so file that I have in it. i.e., if I have APP.WAR file, I have to extract APP.WAR under webapps folder and name that folder APP.WAR.</p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if there is anything I have done wrong (maybe permissions) or if there is a change in JBoss 6 comparing to JBoss 4, for dealing with WAR files.</p>
  
  <p>Cheers,
  Reza</p>
