I am trying to deploy a jar on Jboss 6.1 EA. I had build the jar file.

I am unable to access the page http://localhost:8080/$YOURAPP/hello/World, because I get a 404 error. I replaced the $YOURAPP with the name of the war file. I do not get any errors while starting jboss, it shows the war is getting deployed.

You will definitely need a .war file for JBoss because a (fat) .jar file will not work. For JBoss, you will also need a jboss-web.xml descriptor file in src/main/webapp/WEB-INF file containing the context root of your application.

For example:

<jboss-web>
    <context-root>YOUR_APP_ROOT</context-root>
</jboss-web>

After that, you will need to set one more Spring Boot property to make this work on JBoss EAP 6:

server.servlet-path = /*

This is due to a quirk in JBoss itself, if you don't have this property set to /* it will not work.
