ServiceMix does not deploy Anything

Hi Geeks

Due to some issues surrounding ServiceMix and mostly because I don't  
understand it well enough I ran into an issue where nothing was  
deployed in ServiceMix. What I did was to empty all directories  
within "data/smx" but kept the rest as is like "deploy.xml". This  
made ServiceMix to deploy nothing until each file was "touch"ed  
because the "deploy.xml" file mentioned all these files to be already  
deployed. I think the reason for that is that ServiceMix thinks that  
when there is no file in the appropriate "data/smx" directory that  
the deployment failed.

It turned out that I can safely delete the entire "data/smx"  
directory and ServiceMix does a complete redeployment, cool.

I would suggest that ServiceMix at least does report that it did not  
deploy a file and that probably it failed to deploy beforehand  
because there is not file inside "data/smx/*". From my point of view  
the deploy.xml or install.xml should have a entry that says the  
deployment failed rather than depend on the file system structure.

So what is the best way to make sure servicemix redeploys everything fresh on
a restart, but still hangs on to other data that may have been in process at
shutdown.  Basically, we are trying to script a "graceful" way to terminate
servicemix, deploy new artifacts, then start up servicemix so that it picks
up where it left off.  Is it possible to delete the
data\smx\service-assemblies directory only, to force a fresh deployment of
everything in hotdeploy, while leaving all other data in the data directory
untouched?  Is this a common process people use?  If we leave the data
directory alone, we sporadically have issues with deployments, but we don't
drop transactions that were in process during shutdown.  If we completely
wipe the data directory, the deployment goes fine, but we lose the messages
that didn't get all the way through during shut down.  Any advice?

If you want to restart from a clean state, just remove the *whole*
data directory.  ServiceMix will redeploy everything and it will work
much better.
