Deploying Web Application In Tomcat of JBoss

The following procedure explains how to deploy a web application MFT, developed with Standalone Tomcat, into Tomcat that is embeded into JBoss. This eliminates the need to use two servers - JBOSS and TOMCAT. Instead by starting JBOSS, we can use Web applications and related EJBs.

Create a .war file for web application SCM by getting into scm directory of webapps directory of TOMCAT as follows:
```
     jar cfv  scm.war  . 
  
```
Copy scm.war file into JBOSS_HOME\server\default\deploy directory.
Access the application using http://localhost:8080/scm/login.jsp .
