I have tried deploying an ear and war file to OpenShift using JBoss Tools Openshift Plugin to no avail. I was getting the dreaded "Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-war-plugin" for the ear deployment until I made the necessary changes. The publish says its successful, but I see nothing on the app homepage and actually I see no code deployed as well.

I created a quick Seam Web project and just tried to deploy to OpenShift. This time, I did get the dreaded maven-war-plugin error.

Has anyone gotten this stuff to work?

Very frustrating!

Yes, it works for me so I need to get some more information.

A) does the maven build work locally for you ?

B) what is the exact error  ? "failed to execute goal ..." could mean alot of things.

C) Are you using the examples we provide in central or is it your own war/ear project ?

D) Seam Web Project's aren't configured to work outofthebox on openshift so this would not be expected to work.

Do you mean File->New->Project->Seam->Seam Web Project?

Yes. That is what I'm trying to test. I had no success creating the application as an EAR so I'm trying to just create the Seam Web Project and deploy it and I still get the error message above.

This wizard creates a non-maven project. But the structure of the project expects to be the maven-like by OpenShift tools. web.xml is expected to be placed in src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml (not in WebContent/WEB-INF/web.xml). Java sources in src/main/java etc.
So you have to configure pom.xml (this pom.xml file is added by OpenShift tools and it's used to build/deploy the app onto OpenShift) for your project manually if you want to publish the project created by New Seam Web Project wizard.

Well, that certainly makes sense. Maybe I'll try converting to a Maven project and see what happens. I'll post my findings here

Thanks for the help everyone!

Note, if you don't want to use/setup maven project you can deploy any existing war or ear project to openshift by just dragging it to the openshift server.

Then it will be deployed as a binary into the /deployments folder.
