Setting Multiple Instances for JBoss-4.2.3 GA

[mawenzel]

I try to run two instances of JBoss 4.2.3 on one machine. I use the sample-bindings.xml (via the ServiceBindingManager) to override the various ports. All other ports are being overridden except the webservice which continue to run on port 8080.
I googelized this, but I only found:

Start up your server and it is now listening on the set of ports from the ports-01
section of the binding-manager.xml file. If you are running JBoss on Windows,
depending upon the service wrapper you are using, you might have to delete
the service and re-create it. I've seen some service wrappers (like the one
that ships with some versions of Covalent Enterprise Ready Server for tomcat)
that does not re-read configuration updates unless the service is removed and
re-installed.

Bit it doesn't seem to help. Can anyone help me?

Most likely the XSL transform is failing, which can happen if you modify the server/xxx/deploy/jboss-web.deploy.service.xml file.

The transform can be found in sample-bindings.xml, lines 364-387 (or look for the "*** tomcat ***" section).

Ok, now it's working. I copied the original server.xml in the directory jboss-web.deployer - and that's was.
But I can't see any differences between my old file and the original file. The only change I hade made was setting the port from 8080 to 8480.
Hmm, very strange.

You changed the port number in the server.xml file to 8480? That is enough for the transform to miss the port and for the sample-bindings.xml not to work.
