server on multiple ports: Tomcat runs, JBoss doesnt

jawanrc Dec 27, 2004 2:24 PM

Hi,
I'm having trouble running JBoss on multiple ports.
I dont want to implement clustering but just have JBoss server different 'website' at different ports.
I have the default website running at port 8080, now I want to bring up another one at port 8000.

JBoss does listen at port 8000 but is not serving any pages. Firefox shows an empty page and IE shows IE's default 400-Bad Request page.

Settings done in Tomcat5 worked, but similar settings in JBoss' tomcat doesnt seem to work.

I made the following modification in

C:\JBoss\jboss-4.0.0\server\default\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat50.sar\server.xml

1. Re: server on multiple ports: Tomcat runs, JBoss doesnt

gloose Feb 2, 2005 5:00 PM (in response to jawanrc)

I'm very new to installing and running JBoss, but during my experiment to run on an IBM AS400 under OS400 V5R2, I found I was having a problem with the jacorb.properties file not being located.

I believe I understand that an application may not need to use ORB services, but in case this is related to your problem, I'll log my observations.

This seems to be one of the files that contributes to a multi-port implementation, allowing you to specify IP addresses and ports. Thus, if this file is not found by the JBoss start-up process, your configuration will never be recognized.

The best I can tell, it is the intention of JBoss to find the jacorb.properties in the JBOSS_HOME/server/<my_server_name>/conf directory. The 4.0 distro includes four variations of the server: all, default, minimal and standard. There is a copy of the jacorb.portal file in the /conf directory under each server definition. If you don't specify a server name as a parameter given to the run.sh (or your method of starting JBoss), then JBoss uses the default server definitions.

The problem I see appearing in your start-up log, same as in mine, is that just after the TomcatDeploy runs, the attempt to start an ORB begins with the INFO warning:

[STDOUT] [ jacorb.home unset! Will use '.' ]

In other words, JBoss is failing to discover the jacorb.properties file in the /conf directory for a given server. I'm still researching how it might be possible to set the property "jacorb.home" and feed that into the start-up process. There is probably some xml file in the JBoss directories that I can configure to overcome this apparent deficiency in the JBoss default start-up routines.

Meanwhile, the work-around I found that allowed me to engage a modified copy of jacorb.properties was suggested by the error message above. I copied my modified version of this file in the the default home directory for the start-up process, which for me (and I assume, in general) is jboss.home/bin/. Once I had placed a copy in the /bin directory under the JBoss install directory, the start-up routines were able to locate and use my custom configuration.

HELP?: I would appreciate any response about how the jacorb.home attribute can be set!
