Problem installing JBOSS

[rasuyom]

Hi,

I've installed JBOSS on my W2K Server and did the installation in c:\program files\jboss-4.0.1. But since I have an issue with the space with the directory structure, I decided to uninstall it. But for some reason, it won't get uninstalled so I manually removed the files from the directory and remove the application from the add/remove program. When I tried to install it on c:\jboss-4.0.1 or to any directory, it won't install and I've encountered an error description below.

(Dec 8, 2004 10:11:25 AM), Install, com.installshield.product.service.product.PureJavaProductServiceImpl$Installer, err, java.lang.NullPointerException

Does anyone encountered this problem? Any suggestions?

Thanks

Same here. Eventually uninstalled Java and JBoss, reinstalled Java, pulled the non-installer based distribution of 4.0.0, and ran it that way. Now I'm getting the following whenever I try to browse an aop node in web-console:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP

Hi Rasuyom,
I've got the same problem. Did you manage to solve the problem?
Maybe you can give me some advice?

Thanx in advance
