Unable to start jboss 7.1.1 server through eclipse

[andrew.robinson]

Hi I am unable to start jbossas 7.1.1 through eclipse.

I have

eclipse indigo 3.7.2

jboss tools core 3.3.0.beta1

jbossas 7.1.1.Final

running on windows xp sp2

I attempt to start the sever through eclipse and i get a popup telling me the server failed to start. the console also terminates immediately with nothing printed to it. the logs within the server installation also report nothing.

I have tried advice found elsewhere suggesting changing port numbers, I checked that the port numbers in the server config within eclipse match those defined in the standalone config file, this made no difference. I have also tried changing the location of the server from localhost to 127.0.0.1 which also made no difference.

I am able to start the server as standalone through command line.

Hope someone can help, thanks

Hi! I got the same problem here. It seems that Eclipse locks JBoss AS 7.1 starting process, and keeps ir forever starting even if the server already started. Then, Eclipse kills the process after it gets timed out, killing JBoss AS 7 too. If you are in a Linux or Mac System, something that works is opening a terminal, typing

ps -ae | grep jboss

and kill -9 in the process. It might be helpful sometimes, but it appears to be a bug into AS 7 adapter for eclipse.

Hi! I got no problem starting JBoss AS 7.1.1 under Eclipse Indigo 3.7.2 and JBoss Tools 3.3.0.Beta1

You can look at

https://community.jboss.org/en/tools/blog/2011/11/24/jboss-as-71-beta1-with-jboss-tools--use-web-port-poller

this was very useful. But I had some problems too, so i added  -b=0.0.0.0 -bmanagement=0.0.0.0  in the launch configuration and it works fine in windows 7 64bit

The problem is caused by your Eclipse environment 'Installed JREs' points to a JRE rather than JDK directory. 

To resolve this issue do the following:

1.  Go to Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Installed JREs

2.  Click 'Search...' button, a dialog box will be shown and you need to specify your JDK directory

3.  Once the JDK is found, it will appear on the list of 'Installed JREs' and tick this as your default JRE and untick the previous JRE

4.  Saves your changes

That's it.  Try to start your JBoss Server from within Eclipse.  You should not get this problem again.

Cheers

check if you're using the java jdk. windows -> preferences -> Java -> installed JREs. Then Search, point to your JDK installation and select that result as the default one.

then you should also check under your server runtime environment if it's using the same jre selected above (from the JDK)
