JBoss AS 4.2.0.CR2 does not start

[fcorneli]

When I start JBoss AS 4.2.0.CR2 under a default Linux Fedora Core 6, I get the following error followed by a container shutdown.

Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Exception creating identity: localhost.localdomain: localhost.localdomain
at org.jboss.remoting.ident.Identity.get(Identity.java:211)
at org.jboss.remoting.network.NetworkRegistry.preRegister(NetworkRegistry.java:268)

I don't think this should be happening.

What are the contents of your /etc/hosts file?

[fcorneli]

The content of my /etc/hosts file is:

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain
127.0.0.1 localhost

I just tested bringing up JBoss AS 4.2.0.CR2 on Fedora Core 6 and had no problems. In fact, I tested it with the IBM 1.5 JDK, the Sun 1.5 and 1.6 JDK's, and the BEA JRockit 1.5 JDK, and all worked fine.

Is networking actually enabled on your machine?

Well, if your can read this reply, yes. The funny thing is that when I'm working from my home network (eth1 wireless) it seems to boot normal. When booting JBoss 4.2 at 'work' (eth0 wired), it doesn't. Will investigate on this and come back with my findings.

Try changing/etc/hosts to read:

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

Okay, I recreated your problem by changing my /etc/hosts to the same as yours, as follows:

::1 localhost localhost.localdomain
127.0.0.1 localhost

After changing to this the same problem occurs, even with a wireless connection.

I then just added localhost.localdomain to the IPv4 line as follows:

::1 localhost localhost.localdomain
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

This makes the IPv4 and IPv6 lines match, and then the AS boots fine. So, just add localhost.localdomain to the 127.0.0.1 line, and everything should work.

[fcorneli]

Adding localhost.localdomain indeed fixes the problem. It's weird that Fedora doesn't have this for default.

I start the Jboss AS 4.2.0CR2, but now I only access the web by localhost or 127.0.0.1, by the real ip it doesn't work. but other version Jboss for example 4.0.5 is ok, what is the reason?

[jyc5131]

i only can run -b 192.168.0.2 to get it started, then it can work
