Suse 10 : bad argument for IP_MULTICAST_IF

[aron-smith]

Hi,

I am so close, yet so far to get the latest production release of JBoss up and running on a fresh install of Suse 10.

I installed Java 1.5 with the JAVA_HOME set properly.

When I start the server it scrolls many stack traces all starting with the error:

java.net.SocketException: bad argument for IP_MULTICAST_IF: address not
bound to any interface

I have no clue how to troubleshoot this?

thanks

A

To solve this problem you need to correct your jboss/bin/run.sh :
before:

-Djava.endorsed.dirs="$JBOSS_ENDORSED_DIRS" \
-classpath "$JBOSS_CLASSPATH" \
org.jboss.Main "$@"

after:

-Djava.endorsed.dirs="$JBOSS_ENDORSED_DIRS" \
-classpath "$JBOSS_CLASSPATH" \
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true \
org.jboss.Main "$@"

So, the row
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true \
must be added
There is no spaces must be after \

I'm running JBoss on SuSe 10 as well. I didn't change the run.sh but I just added "--host=127.0.0.1" paramter to the run.sh command. (change 127.0.0.1 to the IP address of your machine) this is how I run it and it works great!

I'm going to try the run.sh change to see how well that works.

Basically I run a script that does it, something like this:
nohup bin/run.sh -c $APP --host=$HOST >/dev/null 2>&1 &
