Jboss finds outdated IP (linux)

[jbm4ever]

I get a java.net.BindException for the WebService when I start Jboss

When I go to the jmx-console and looks at the WebService I can see that it is using an static IP number that I used before changing the net configuration to DHCP

Where does Jboss initially find/read the IP number for the WebService ?

thank you for your assisstance

The IP is obtained with
java.net.InetAddress.getByName().getHostAddress();
and default for hostname is taken from
java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();

Could you check if your /etc/hosts file contains any outdated entries?
