server.xml equivalent in JBoss AS 7

Question

I am trying to run my application in jboss 7 from jboss 4. In jboss 4 we changed server.xml to configure keystoreFile and keystorePass etc. Can any one help me where to make these changes in jboss7.

The server.xml equivalent in Jboss 7 is a standalone/configuration/standalone.xml for a standalone installation and domain.xml for a domain aware one.

I'm not sure where those options are or how you're supposed to configure it in Jboss 7, but start with standalone.xml file first.

Edit the file standalone/configuration/standalone.xml:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.0" default-virtual-server="default-host">
    <connector name="http" scheme="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" socket-binding="http"/>
    <virtual-server name="default-host" enable-welcome-root="true">
       <alias name="localhost" />
       <alias name="example.com" />
    </virtual-server>
</subsystem>

Replace thew connector tag with following one:

<connector name="https" scheme="https" protocol="HTTP/1.1" secure =”true” socket-   binding="https" ssl=”your certificate name”/>

@Joerg you have to set the system property javax.net.ssl.trustStore in standalone.xml or domain.xml: https://community.jboss.org/thread/172052 – Ashish Panery Jul 09 '12 at 10:14

You should avoid touching the config XMLs yourself.
Rather let it up to domain controller and host controller,
and configure your server through the means mentioned here: JBoss AS 7 JMX Console

Update:

For manual configuration, try the Web UI - http://localhost:9990/.
For automated configuration, try CLI scripts.
To develop and debug CLI commands, try jboss-cli.sh --gui.

But if you really must, it's in standalone/configuration/standalone.xml:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.0" ...>

The schema is here: http://www.jboss.org/schema/jbossas/jboss-as-web_1_2.xsd
(or later versions).

Recommended way to change the AS 7 model is anyway by means of the Command Line Interface. For example, you can set the socket binding port of the HTTP port to 8090 with :

/socket-binding-group=standard-sockets/socket-binding=http:write-attribute(name="port", value="8090")

JBoss EAP 7 uses the Undertow web server and configures it via the undertow subsystem (which replaces the web subsystem used in previous versions). SSL/TLS setup using the CLI is described in Setting up an SSL/TLS for Applications. If you would like to directly modify the standalone.xml file, the instructions can be translated to:

Add and configure an HTTPS security realm. - under /server/management/security-realms add an HTTPS security-realm element, for example

<security-realm name="HTTPSRealm">
  <server-identities>
      <ssl>
          <keystore path="/path/to/your/keystore/myKeystore.jks"
                    keystore-password="myKeystorePassword"
                    alias="mySSLKeyPairAlias"
                    key-password="mySSLKeyPairPassword" />
      </ssl>
  </server-identities>
</security-realm>

Update the undertow subsystem to use the HTTPS security realm. - under /server/profile find the Undertow subsystem element (e.g. <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:3.1">). It has a server child element to which you add an https-listener element referencing your HTTPSRealm created in step 1 above, for example
```
<https-listener name="default-ssl" socket-binding="https" security-realm="HTTPSRealm" />
```
