Hello Guys
I have a problem with the JBoss startup. I wrote an application in Java to start the JBoss Server but it doesn't work. :-( (The server starts without problems if I execute the run.bat file.)

Thats my source:

Main jbossMain = new Main();
try {
 jbossMain.boot(new String[] {});
}catch (Exception e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
}

If I execute this I got the following error:

java.lang.SecurityException: class "org.jboss.system.server.NoAnnotationURLClassLoader"'s signer information does not match signer information of other classes in the same package

Do you know what the solution for my problem is or do you know an other pattern to start the Server from a Java application? But I don't want to start it with

Runtime.getRuntime().exec()

With kind regards
Peter

I don't think anyone understood what the question was :-)

Are you trying to start JBoss from a Java program? If yes, then have a look at the run.bat file which sets up the Classpath to be used while calling the org.jboss.Main:

"%JAVA%" %JAVA_OPTS% ^
 -Djava.endorsed.dirs="%JBOSS_ENDORSED_DIRS%" ^
 -classpath "%JBOSS_CLASSPATH%" ^
 org.jboss.Main %*

I haven't tried it myself so don't know what issues you might run into. Try it out and if you have any specific errors/questions, do post here.

hi, jaikiran,

thank you for your reply. we tried it the way you suggested it and it turned out to be just a classpath issue.
nevertheless we stepped back from starting JBoss from Java and now we are using run.bat again. thanks anyway.

regards
robert
