Warnings on startup: JMX HtmlAdaptor not starting

[mindstate]

Hi, I am using Jboss 3 (w/Jetty) built from Branch_3_0 from CVS on FreeBSD 4.5, w/Blackdown 1.3.1 jdk

The JMX Html adaptor that is supposed to run on port 8082 is not starting when I start up Jboss. The build from source went fine, except i had do it twice having failed to add java to my PATH the first time (I just deleted the output dir and tried again..) I have tried deploying a simple WAR and that worked, however I'd like to try and figure out what's wrong.

There are some warnings in server.log every time I start it up, some of them (the so-and-so does not implement any Service methods) appear with my binary install on win98, however, the other ones don't.
Can someone give me some insight?

Following are the warnings grep'd from the server.log. Please let me know if any other info would be useful. Thanks.:

It looks like the last warning is where JMX is crashing out.. could it be related to the first warnings at the top regarding Jars not found?

Should I just re-download the source from CVS and reinstall or is JMX not configured to work from the source install?

Should this question be in another forum?

I think this is a mistake in current CVS
jmxri.jar has been removed so the html adaptor
won't start.

The reason is that http://localhost:8080/jmx-console
replaces it.

I think you can ignore all of the warnings except the
last one. I'm suprised the "exception" hasn't appeared in
the log?

Adrian

Hi warjort,

Thanks for the info, I checked out localhost:8080/jmx-console and the "Jboss Managemnt Console" is running there. Regarding your post:

Apparently I have jmxri.jar in the following dirs:
./server/all/lib/jmxri.jar
./server/default/lib/jmxri.jar
./server/default/tmp/deploy/server/default/lib/jmxri.jar
So perhaps the html adaptor should be starting?

I had a second look at server.log and there is a Java exception nested in the last WARN that I posted. This appears to take place at shutdown tho, not at startup. Should this be a concern then?:
