[NOOB Alert] Deploying applications in WebSphere without an EAR

[Arvind Vinay]

Hi,

I am new to Websphere and this is my question: Is there an option to install/deploy applications without creating an EAR similar to copying the application to the webapp folder in Tomcat?

Thanks for your patience,
Arvind

No I don't think that is an option under WebSphere. You can deploy either EAR or WAR file. Expanded deployments are not supported. It gets complicated when you are doing this deployment for clustered (or ND) versions.
