I doubt I'm doing the deploy stuff correctly and professional way, but it
works perfectly...

Answer to B:

unzip downloaded file from orionserver.com ( latest stable). Copy tools.jar
to orion directory. Enter config directory, edit data-sources.xml to use
your database, make sure to copy driver files for that database ( if Sybase,
jconn2.jar ) to orion/lib.

Open global-web-application.xml and change the first xml-tag to :

<orion-web-app
 jsp-cache-directory="./persistence"
 servlet-webdir="/servlet"
 development="true"
>

open server.xml and add

<application name="myApp" path="../applications/myApp" />

open default-web-site.xml and add

<web-app application="myApp" name="myApp-web" root="/myApp"
load-on-startup="true"/>

create directorystructure

orion/applications/myApp
orion/applications/myApp/myApp-web
orion/applications/myApp/myApp-web/WEB-INF
orion/applications/myApp/META-INF

in web-inf dir, put web.xml, create classes, and put your classes there
directory style

classes/com/myAppClasses/beans

jsp files goes in myApp-web

beans in MyApp directory.

application.xml goes in myApp/META-INF dir.

run java -jar orion.jar in orion dir

Touch web.xml to reload classes, runtime.

I guess your question (A) was answered above too... =)
