Hopefully I haven't caused any work for anyone as
I have found the
 solution to the problem. The instructions on the xwiki admin page may
 need an update/clarification.
 The answer is to name the directory you expand the .war into with
 a .war
 extension as per;
 
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ExplodedDeployment
 I renamed the directory from;
 $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/xwiki
 To;
 $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/xwiki.war 
Glad you found the problem.
I've updated the page with this (note that since it's a wiki you could
also have done it :)).
Thanks

  And hooray, 
http://myserver.mydomain:8080/xwiki is
alive! Also I don't
 have a massive server.log and 85% processor usage on the server
 anymore
 either.
 I will add this to the FAQ on the xwiki site, might help someone.....

 Subject: [xwiki-users] Help deploying xwiki under jboss/mysql/linux
 Greetings fellow earthlings,
 I am hoping some generous soul can help me here, I am a thin-client
 app
 noob, but (IMHO) not a complete muppet. What I have is a brand new
 Linux
 (Ubuntu 6.06 server distro) server, Jboss 4.4.2.GA, mysql 5.0.22,
 xwiki
 1.1.2, java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.13.
 My goal is an xwiki based site for the service and support
 department of
 the company I work for. I have installed xwiki on my local PC using
 the
 stanalone distro, all good. Now I want to get a server running so I
 can
 start to show the interested parties how it might work and get some
 feedback on the thing.
 I have followed the instructions on the xwiki and jboss sites pretty
 faithfully (multiple times) and can't seem to get xwiki to deploy
 under
 jboss. I have set mysql user and priviledges, downloaded the
 connector,
 modified hibernate.cfg.xml blah, blah. I can see the jboss default
 pages
 (at 
http://myserver.mydomain:8080/) when I start the jboss server, but
 no xwiki at 
http://myserver.mydomain:8080/xwiki I get http 404. I
 haven't got to the stage of importing the default enterprise database
 yet.
 Can someone help by first suggesting where I should start looking. I
 have had a look in the server.log and boot.log but they all seem like
 gobbly-gook to me. I won't post here as the server log is huge, 5MB,
 but
 I can filter it to something sensible if only I knew what to look for.
 Hoping someone can point me in the right direction,
 Thanks in advance,
