Installing JBoss in Linux


As with the Windows version, first you need to extract all the files into the directory where you want JBoss to be installed. In Linux, the recommended directory, for the time being, is within your home directory, which is typically
/home/MYUSERNAME. You can do this by running the following command from within your home directory: unzip jboss-3.0.4.zip –d jboss, substituting the version you’re working with for the 3.0.4. The –d option tells unzip that we want to specify the destination directory. After extracting all the files, you need to add the $JBOSS_HOME variable to your environment. In Linux, environment variables are usually added into the startup scripts, such as the .bash_profile file in your home directory.
