Hi,
Last weekend I managed to deploy the BaseX WAR on the Amazon Web Services platform, as an 'Elastic Beanstalk' application. Now I want to create and manage databases and run queries via the REST interface. However, I am lost as how to do that. First, the BaseX pages tell me that the WAR distribution is 'deprecated'. (page http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Startup, remark "the WAR Application can be embedded in existing Java web servers (deprecated)." Why is the WAR distribution deprecated? Should I not use it anymore? And if so, how can I make a WAR out of the JAR distribution? Elastic Beanstalk can only deploy WAR files. Second, where to put the files? I can ssh into the application and transfer files, but where do I put database files I already created with the Windows version of BaseX? And where the .xq files?
