                Here is some information from Microsoft on how to set environment variables: -

                http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/environment_variables.mspx

                The name of the environment variable you are trying to set is 'JAVA_HOME' and the value is the full path to the JDK that you have installed.

                    Why are you using such an old version of JBoss?

                    When posting on these forums instead of saying 'It does not work' you need to describe your problem fully.

                    So what exact value did you set JAVA_HOME to?

                    What is the exception that is being displayed (By exception I mean the full stack trace and message).

                    If you followed the instructions from Microsoft how are you starting JBoss, by double clicking on the run script or are you typing run in a command prompt? If the latter did you close and re-open the command prompt after setting the environment variable?

                      JAVA_HOME is not set. Unexpected results may occur.
                      Set JAVA_HOME to the directory of your local JDK to avoid this message.

                        Try dropping the \bin off. I'm pretty sure that isn't the right value.

                          Yes as Norman has said the variable needs to be set to the dir that contains the bin not the bin folder itself.

                          However you are going to have to drop down the JDK versions, JDK 1.5 is not supported till JBoss 3.2.6.

                          I have never worked with 3.0.2 it may work with JDK 1.4 but it may even need 1.3.

                                YOU CAN NOT USE THE 1.5 JDK WITH THAT VERSION OF JBOSS.

                                Also if your JDK is installed in the folder C:\jdk1.5.0_01 this is what JAVA_HOME should be set to.

                                READ THE INFORMATION FROM MICROSOFT ON HOW TO SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES IN WINDOWS XP.

                                  yesd my jdk is installed in in C:\ i cannot use jdk1.5 wiht hte latest version of Jboss?

                                    You can use the 1.5 JDK with the latest version of JBoss, the reason why you are still seeing errors is because the version of JBoss (3.0.2) that you are using does not work with the 1.5 JDK.

                                    If your JDK is in a folder C:\jdk1.5.0_01 JAVA_HOME should be set to 'C:\jdk1.5.0_01'
