Help needed regarding websphere specific xml file - ibm-application-*

[Parameswaran Thangavel]

Hi all,
i am new to web sphere. i am trying to deploy an existing application(which runs fine in JRun 4) into web sphere v6 server. All i want to know is what are the mandatory files i need create for a successful deployment of web application. when i tried to deploy my application it says can not find deployment.xml file and also i find out lot of xml files under /cells/ folder

whether all the files should be created before deploying the application.

Any pointers will surely help me.

Thanks

Here's a multimedia tutorial that demonstrates the deployment of a J2EE EAR file that was created using WSAD and deployed to WAS 6. As you can see, there is nothiing other than the various wizard screns that are required to complete a deployment:

Deploying a standard EAR file to the WebSphere Application Server

There are no magical files with WebSphere. A standard EAR file should deploy just fine.
