installing jBoss

[lordalmma]

Hy everyone. I used to have Apache Tomcat but I wanna try JBoss for my new app. How can I install it? I have downloaded and unzipped it under C:\jboss-4.2.0\ but when i try to run the service is says that "service started and stopped. this might happen to some services that are not in use". (I am using windows vista x86)

However i do not have a way to test if it's working because i don't have an application to run. is the instalation ok? is there a way to test?

thank's

To run, and see if it is working:

1) Open a command prompt
2) enter: cd C:\jboss-4.2.0\bin (or possibly "cd C:\jboss-4.2.0\jboss-4.2.0.GA\bin")
3) enter: run
4) Open a browser, point it at http://localhost:8080 and you will get the home page.
