Symbolic links inside ear/war are not followed by EAP 6

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Can't use symbolic links inside my war / ear deployment in EAP 6.
  • Seeing issue that looks like AS7-3414
  • Is there any settings to allow the symbolic links to be visible?
  • we are unable to deploy the EAR file. The EAR file has symbolic links in it. As per the suggestion in your blog/website we tried to do a folder(exploded file) deployment. Still it wont work. The deployment succeeds only when the links are removed. It is also not working even using the EAR flat file as well.

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 6.x
