Hi David,
I followed the following steps to build the Geronimo from trunk.
1. Checkout the trunk
2. mvn install
3. mvn -Ptools geronimo:start
Geronimo started and I see activemq.xml file is not copied in var/activemq/conf
folder. Web console also do not provide any editing support. In fact there is
no edit link there on running ActiveMQ.
I looked into the pom.xm and generated geronimo-plugin.xml and they do have the
plugin-artifact as you mentioned in your mail.
Further I installed the created binary distribution (in
~/.m2/repository/org/apache/geronimo/assemblies folder) to a separate folder
and checked the geronimo-plugin.xml file in
${geronimo.home}/repository/org/apache/geronimo/configs/activemq-broker/2.2-SNAPSHOT/activemq-broker-2.2-SNAPSHOT.car/META-INF
folder and I did not find the two plugin-artifact lines to copy the activemq
configuration.
Did I miss something?
Regards,
Raj

Subject: Re: Configuring ActiveMQ with external file
In 2.2 we are using the "native" xbean-spring xml file to configure the
activemq broker. By default it's installed into var/activemq/conf/activemq.xml
by this info in the pom.xml/geronimo-plugin.xml:
<plugin-artifact>
<copy-file relative-to="server"
dest-dir="var/activemq/conf">activemq.xml</copy-file>
<copy-file relative-to="server"
dest-dir="var/activemq/template">activemq-template.xml</copy-file>
</plugin-artifact>
There's also some admin console support for editing this file which I think
uses the activemq-template file which is also installed.
In any case if you want to deal with editing this file individually on every
server you can just change it in place or if you want a more reproducible
process you could copy the activemq-broker maven project and build a plugin
with your own plan. Use an artifact-alias entry to make your plugin replace
ours.
hope this answers your question
