Error While Starting JBOSS

[javauser07]

HI I am using Jboss 4.2 server, IDE Eclipse, After starting jboss server from eclipse, its keep on showing starting.. and finally its getting stoped automatically.

[javauser07]

I got jboss-4.2.2.GA.zip file, I extracted that file, while adding servers to eclipse I have added folder jboss-4.2.2.GA as server path to it.

[javauser07]

I didn't get any exception so I was not able to post the error details

Does the server start normally when you use the run.bat from the command prompt?

[javauser07]

No if I run like that even atleast not able to see the console also, its just opening the console and closing. If I start from eclipse its giving some info in console, finally its showing the following line
18:19:12,656 INFO [Server] JBoss (MX MicroKernel) [4.2.1.GA (build: SVNTag=JBoss_4_2_1_GA date=200707131605)] Started in 9s:828ms

after this some time later jboss server is stoping automatically

[jaikiran]

What do the server.log contents show when the server shutdown in Eclipse? You can find the server.log in the %JBOSS_HOME%\server\< serverName>\log folder.

No if I run like that even atleast not able to see the console also, its just opening the console and closing

Have you set the JAVA_HOME correctly? What does the following output from the command prompt:

echo %JAVA_HOME%

[javauser07]

echo %JAVA_HOME% is showing the path exactly to jdk home directory.

server.log file is having so many lines of data.

are you saying abou the "jboss-4.2.1.GA\server\default\log\server.log" file. If I start that server its giving 500kb sixe log file. how can i send it.

[itsme]

try this:

1. locate the server in eclipse' server view
2. double click the server entry, so the server entry property editor is shown
3. locate the item timeouts and expand it
4. set the value for Start to something more than 600 seconds

Yes, i was referring to the server.log file in jboss-4.2.1.GA\server\default\log\server.log. You don't have to post the entire file. Do you see anything specific related to the server shutting down after some time?


As for the error while running from the command prompt, do this:

- In the run.bat remove the "@echo off" command from the first line of the bat
- From the command prompt run the run.bat file
- If something fails, post the output here.

While posting the logs or xml content or code, remember to wrap it in a code block using the Code button in the message editor window and please hit the Preview button to make sure your post is correctly formatted

[javauser07]

As you said I changed time out value, still there is no effect.
"set the value for Start to something more than 600 seconds "

There Is nothing like shutting down...in server.log file.
But I saw one exception in server.log file saying that

Hi Friends, I downloaded one more version of jboss, after including this new path in eclipse, server was starting.

Thank you very much friends.

Here is a line that highlights your error:

"D:\Java\jdk1.6.0;\bin\java" -version 2>&1 | findstr /I hotspot 1>nul

From this I gather that you set JAVA_HOME to "c:\Java\jdk1.6.0;" It is the trailing semicolon that is the issue. You were earlier ask to post the setting for JAVA_HOME, which you did not do. If you would have, the problem could have been resolved earlier.
