soap:address location using HOSTNAME rather than IP address

[sagneta]

Currently I am using JBoss 4.0.4 and using @WebMethod on EJB 2.0 Session Beans to provide SOAP access to various public methods. Everything works fine except that the soap:address location URL contains the actual hostname rather than the IP address. I unfortunately require the IP address as many customers lack decent DNS support, sometimes for security reason.

In any event, JBoss produces WSDL with the following snippet at the end:


-
<soap:address location="http://sagneta-bos:8080/ws/TestLogin" />




Notice the sagneta-bos hostname? I need that to be an IP address. I cannot determine from the documentation how to make the JBoss server produce a WSDL XML document that produces an address location URL that uses the IP address rather than the HOST name. It appears that jboss.bind.address is always used.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Stephen

hi dont worry, i have a solution for your problem
there are two ways to solve this problem
i). u need to start your jboss server with this command on command prompt

%JBoss_home%\bin>run.bat -b <your IP Address>

ii).the second way is find jboss-server.xml in jboss installer foler(Jboss_Home) then
in that file(s) replace the ${binding-address} to <your IP address>

then start the jboss server normaly

Imagine you have a multihomed host.

How do you make one JBoss instance listen to both 10.10.10.1 and 127.0.0.1 and a second JBoss instance listen to 10.10.10.2?

Thanks for the help everyone. That suggestion of binding to the IP address worked.

I understand the multihomed issue of binding to specific IP addresses. I simply didn't know how to do it with JBoss.

Thanks all.
