Questions:

1. is every thing alright? is my server running well! how I can check it out.

2. if i would like to deploy my application is this the right way?

   • Navigate to the folder that contains your copy of Mule ESB Standalone, then paste the application's zip file into the apps folder.
     • Mule polls the apps folder every 5 seconds (every 5000ms); it picks up the application you copied to the apps folder, then extracts and deploys it automatically. In the command line, Mule notifies you that it has deployed the application.

3. and then how I can access and test applications deployed on the server that I just installed.

4. is there a way to associate each action done in my code to graphique event so that the user of my application can visualize the operation of each step. for example i have created an application who sent an email to a device if it didn't receive a push. so can the user of my application see the progress of process.

Answer 1

1- Yes
2- Yes
3- Use the inbound endpoint of your application
4- Run the app in debug mode from AnyPointStudio

Answer 2

For the 3rd question :- "and then how I can access and test applications deployed on the server that I just installed." You can test the application in the same way you used to do in Mule/Anypoint studio.
For example, your application contains a http inbound endpoint... so to test the application you need to paste the url path in your browser and hit it .. once you do it, you can see your application working and producing the result you are expecting .
It is the same way you run and test your application in studio.

The answer of your 4rth question is you better use log4j in your application and logger at each steps in the flow...
so whenever the flow will run, you can see each step is logged in the standalone server console.
If you want to get more details of your steps, then configure your log4j in DEBUG mode

the 1st and 2nd question I guess is already answered

Answer 3

1. Yes as it is showing deployed it means that you have deployed in right way.
2. Yes, everything looks good.

You can run the application in debug mode you can get more details.
