Failed to start JBoss3.2.2

[nortex]

I have downloaded JBoss 3.2.2 and run it on Windows XP Professional. I got following errors right after JBoss started:

then there were huge amount of error messages.
Could anyone tell what's going on?

Thanks.

I've just stumbled over this problem too. Normally this happens when you are trying to run more than one instance of the server, or if you are running something like Tomcat seperately. However, there are other applications that may be running on your machine that grab ports - in my case a Firewall client. You can try reconfiguring JBoss's services to use other ports - which might work, so long as you happen to know *for certain* which ports are currently free - or you can shut down any processes which might be using this port.

Try using netstat -an to identify ports that are already being used before starting JBoss.
