    Folder/File Not Existing for Jboss: jboss-web.deployer/conf/web.xml

    Technical Questions
    #1

    Hello Poornima,

    According to your instructions for “Configuring JBoss to minimize security risks: In order to minimize security risks for the application, block the access to potentially harmful HTTP methods like “PUT, DELETE, etc.” To do this, add the security-constraint to the web.xml at the specific location listed below.
    •File: web.xml
    •Location: JBOSS_HOME/server/<jboss.server.name>/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/conf”

    While this file web.xml exists for Jboss 4.2.3GA in caTissue 1.2: \JBoss\jboss-4.2.3.GA\server\default\deploy\jboss-web.deployer\conf

    /jboss-web.deployer/conf does not exists in JBoss 5.1.0GA. I searched and there are other web.xml files in other locations:

    C:\Jboss\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy\jmx-console.war\WEB-INF\web.xml
    C:\Jboss\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy\management\console-mgr.sar\web-console.war\WEB-INF\web.xml
    C:\Jboss\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy\jbossws.sar\jbossws-management.war\WEB-INF\web.xml
    C:\Jboss\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy\ROOT.war\WEB-INF\web.xml
    C:\Jboss\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy\http-invoker.sar\invoker.war\WEB-INF\web.xml
    C:\Jboss\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy\admin-console.war\WEB-INF\web.xml

    Please advise which file needs to be changed, if applicable.

    Thank you
