Error: Start JBoss -> log4j:ERROR setFile(null,false) call f

[auduwage]

I am trying setup a jboss in Linux box, I install j2sdk, and jboss on root and then moved /usr/local/j2sdk, /usr/local/jboss then I set the paths for JAVA_HOME, and JBOSS_HOME
such as /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_15/bin:JBOSS_HOME=/usr/local/jboss/jboss-4.2.0.GA/bin

I didn't set the JAVA_OPT and also I haven't installed ANT but I thought I dont have to do those two things just to fireup the JBOSS. But I am getting bellow mentioned error...

Can someone help..?

First, this should really go into Beginners Corner.

Anyway, it looks like you did not set JAVA_HOME. If you had set it, as you had indicated, then the "JAVA: java" line in the output would have read:

JAVA: /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_15/bin/java

Instead, the Java that came with your Linux distro was used, and such JVMs are not supported.

Finally, to run JBoss AS 4.2 you will need a 1.5 JDK.
