at this point calling the URL in my browser returns no response at all infact the brower just stares at me.

[4.2.3.GA (build: SVNTag=JBoss_4_2_3_GA date=200807181439)]

Going by this build date, it looks like you are using the JDK1.6 version of JBoss-4.2.3 GA. However you are using it with a JDK 1.5:

13:43:02,179 INFO [ServerInfo] Java version: 1.5.0_16,Apple Inc.
13:43:02,180 INFO [ServerInfo] Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_16-133,Apple Inc.

To fix this, you have 2 options mentioned here http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=143822

Thanks so very much for ur reply. though I couldnt see the page the url returned some infomation asking me to redirect if the system doesnt automatically do so. I had to but it took forever trying to get there.

I got see another reply from you regarding a Jboss issue running on XP the one on the topic "jboss-4.2.3.GA startup problem" where u made mention of the jdk version issue, actually I tried to upgrade my jdk from 1.5 to 1.6 on my mac but all I got was 1.5.0_16, B'cos I want to work on JBOSS seam, I wonder if this runs well on java 5. I am running on a mac os x 10.5.4 (leopard). Ur help will be very much appreciated

wishing u well in all ur endeavoz

I tried to upgrade my jdk from 1.5 to 1.6 on my mac but all I got was 1.5.0_16

I haven't used a Mac system so i dont know whether a JDK 1.6 is available for Mac OS.

I want to work on JBOSS seam, I wonder if this runs well on java 5.

Yes, JBoss Seam works fine on Java 5.

So, i guess, the best way to get your setup working is to retain the current Java 5 that you have and download a new JDK 1.5 version of JBoss-4.2.3 GA from here http://downloads.sourceforge.net/jboss/jboss-4.2.3.GA.zip?modtime=1216412104&big_mirror=1

Let us know, if you still run into issues after following these steps.

Thanx a lot will do and give you a feed back, have a pleasant weekend

How are you doing, just to appreciate you invaluable assistance. Yes changing the installation of jboss from jboss from 4.2.3-GA-jdk 6 to jboss from 4.2.3-GA solves the problem though running jboss-seam 2.1.0 on it throws the following issues

An error has occurred while processing the Maven artifact tasks.
Diagnosis:
Unable to resolve artifact: Missing:
----------
1) javax.xml.bind:jaxb-api:jar:2.1
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javax.xml.bind -DartifactId=jaxb-api -Dversion=2.1 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:
mvn deploy eploy-file -DgroupId=javax.xml.bind -DartifactId=jaxb-api -Dversion=2.1 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]
Path to dependency:
1) org.apache.maven:super-pom:jar:2.0
2) javax.xml.bind:jaxb-api:jar:2.1
----------
1 required artifact is missing.
for artifact:
org.apache.maven:super-pom:jar:2.0................. blah blah
changing the jboss-seam installation to jboss-seam-2.1.0.SP1.tar solves the problem. Thank you so very much.

Have a bug free week
