    JBoss 4.0.4RC1 - no Web Console

    rknechtel

      I have installed JBoss 4.0.4RC1 on Red Hat Linux the web-console.war directory is under:
      $JBSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/management/console-mgr.sar
      But when I try to access it via:
      http://wauatg08:8080/web-console/
      I get:
      HTTP Status 404 - /web-console/

      type Status report

      message /web-console/

      description The requested resource (/web-console/) is not available.
      Apache Tomcat/5.5.12

      How do I get the web-console to run? I have been searching through the documentation, searching the JBoss website and haven't been able to find a reference for running this.

      Any help would be apprieciated.
      Thanks,

          I'm not sure if this is solution is applicable to your situation, but I was having trouble with the web console as well in Windows XP. Here's what I did to fix it, it may be something you can try.

          Create a new file called applet.jsp with the following contents:

          <html>
          
          <head>
          </head>
          
          <body>
          
          <p>
          <applet
           width="100%"
           height="100%"
           code="org.jboss.console.navtree.AppletBrowser"
           archive="applet.jar,jboss-common.jar"
           >
           <!-- An empty refresh value disables the background refresh thread -->
           <param name="RefreshTime" value="">
           <param name="SessionId" value="<%=request.getSession().getId()%>">
           <param name="PMJMXName" value="jboss.admin:service=PluginManager">
          </applet>
          </p>
          
          </body>
          
          </html>
          


          Then:
          1. stop the container
          2. Copy the file applet.jsp to <jboss-home>\server\default\deploy\management\console-mgr.sar\web-console.war\
          3. Copy jboss-common.jar from <jboss-home>\lib\jboss-common.jar to <jboss-home>\server\default\deploy\management\console-mgr.sar\web-console.war\
          4. restart the container

          Good luck, hope this helps!

              Also, lets talk a little about the web-console, and about jmx-console ...

              Plz my brethren jboss folks, take a moment and look at your console design, maaaan ... you couldn't pay me to make such ugly azz stuff.

              Its like you were hit over the head with a club as you coded up the page.

              Or you were paid to make it as lame as possible by brilliant anti-aesthetes.

              Or you're sense of style is so out there that only a cyclop with bifoculs would enjoy it.

              Which one is it buddies?

              I suppose the $250ML from redhat didn't acquire you a couple of mac guys in black tshirts that could do this stuff in their sleep...
