    Multiple JBoss Instances

    rsrivast

      I am trying to configure JBoss 2.4.x to run multiple instances in a single machine. I reassigned the following ports - classloading, JNDI, RMI, HSQL, HTTP, ...etc. When the server starts I still see the message 'Naming started on port 1099'. How can this be changed? Is anyone successfully running multiple jboss instances on single machine?

          Have you changed port in standardjboss.xml from 4444 to something else? It solved some problems for me.

          I have still one problem: Both instances are using %JOSS_DIST%/tmp/Default for deployed ear-files. Maybe you can help me.

            You should also change the name of the deployer in mbean
            org.jboss.deployment.J2eeDeployer

              ok, I finally reconfigured all the ports and started the server successfully. The second server throws these exceptions during startup. It is not able to start the JBossMQService. Also, CTRL-C stops ALL jboss instances. Not able to start multiple instances if jboss is a major show stopper!

                Have a look at the following link.
                There is no port redefinition required :-)

                http://www.geocrawler.com/lists/3/SourceForge/10767/500/7544127/

                He answered me privately that this does indeed work.

                  Do not use Ctrl-C for stopping a JBoss instance. Use the class org.jboss.Shutdown instead.

                  I am not using MQ but it sounds that you have missed some port reconfiguration somewhere.

                    The meat of the post that the above link points to is:

                    "Try adding -Djava.rmi.server.hostname to run.sh . . ."

                    This needs to be in a FAQ (if it isn't already).

                    Or even better: Why doesn't the default script, that is distributed with the release, have this option to begin with?

                    As someone who was just trying to get started with JBoss, this bind exception crud has been incredibly frustrating.

                    Please don't get me wrong - I'm grateful that something like JBoss even exists, but this bind error has hit me from a couple of different ways and I suspect it's making things a bit tough for alot of the newbies out there.

                    I think this tip was the key though, so thanks!
