Most probably you screwed up your local JBoss distribution and/or the run.bat script.

Start over with a fresh installation.

Where did you get your JDK from? It looks like you might be using one that is part of the Sun application server.

You just need a J2SE JDK you don't need any other J2EE libraries as these are all provided by JBoss.

thanks darranl:

i go to the http://java.sun.com/products/archive/index.html (Archive: Java[tm] Technology Products Download) and downloaded the J2SE v 1.4.0 SDK, J2SE v 1.4.0_01 SDK, J2SE v 1.4.1 SDK and J2SE v 1.4.1_01 SDK. then installed each of them, however, only has the jre directory after installation, cannot find the jdk directory. did i download the correct version of J2SE SDK? which version should i download?

your quick reply will be very appreciated.

thanks!
David
