Deploy wars to Camunda Platform Run

I’m probably missing something simple here, but I’m not seeing how to deploy other than just bpm files to Camunda Platform Run. How do I deploy a complete process application, e.g. a warfile. Thanks in advance.

Hello @crirvine ,

Camunda Run is not meant to have war Files deployed to it.

Instead, please use either a Tomcat or Wildfly distro. They are available as Docker Images or as download.

Hope this helps

Ok. I guess I understand. I did read that Camunda Run was meant for those not experienced with Java - or something like that. So, it’s kind of a getting started approach to Camunda. Is that the case?

Hello @crirvine ,

in some way yes. The goal is having an engine ready-to-run engine that can be easily configured in a simple yaml file. Usually, this distro is used to implement External Tasks with Workers that can be written in any programming language and can use the Rest API to work with the engine. It can also be extended by Jar-Files that are placed in a special directory inside the distribution.

Interesting. Then I don’t think I was correct in guessing that it was targeted as a getting started approach. It’s more of a non Java approach.
