How to get Hotswap working in Websphere 6?
Before I found out how to get Idea to work with Websphere my old environment consisted of Rational Application Developer running my WAS6 server and Idea was used to edit files. If I changed a class file I had to load it in RAD using F5 and then it would recompile it and deploy it using hotswap. Non Java files like JSP and Javascript could be edited in Idea and a simple refresh in the browser would pick up the changes.
Now I finally have Idea set up to run WAS6 and also deploy my EAR file but if I make any minor change to JSP or Javascript it doesn't get picked up until I do a make, followed by a complete re-deploy of the EAR which can take up to 5 minutes on my PC?
How can I set up my Idea configuration to use hotswap or whatever feature it is that allows me to edit files and have them automatically picked up by the running installed EAR? Is it something to do with exploded directories? If so how should I set these up as this seems to make no difference?
thanks

I have the same issue with WebSphere 5.1. In addition my re-deployment randomly fails. It usually has something to do with "invalid binaries"... however that happened??? Right now I'd just love to get the thing to re-deploy successfully and then work on getting the hot deploy to work (if possible at all).
FYI... I have a local WebSphere 5.1 debug configuration. This works really well with the various flavors of Tomcat I have used in the past. I'm very disappointed in the WebSphere debugger.
It never worked it always gets unsupported jvm error.
I also get the 'random failure to deploy' problem. Often it complains that there is a duplicate ear on the server - which there is if idea is failing to republish over the top of the previous deployment?!? So I have no idea what is wrong. I find the support very flaky indeed.

I saw that too. I did it couple times and it always deploys duplicate instead of updating it. I asked same question to support I didn't get correct answer. Look like development with websphere is not development with pleasure. we hope that they will have some websphere improvements in Selena.
Hello Rambabu,
Please create a Jira issue for this problem and provide exact occured error
messages and steps to reproduce if any.
I've created a Jira issue (JEEAS-135) because I am now getting an error which stops the EAR from deploying in the first place?
I will just keep adding Jiras as I find new things because there seem to be so many problems with this.
thanks

I see this kind of thing in the console when it tries to install duplicates:
