    Jboss 5.1.0.GA fails to shutdown with 'Could not obtain connection to any of these urls:'

      I recently attempted a stock install of Jboss 5.1.0.GA and experieced a failure to shutdown with the following error:

       

      Exception in thread "main" javax.naming.CommunicationException: Could not obtain connection to any of these urls: localhost:1099 [Root exception is javax.naming.CommunicationException: Failed to connect to server localhost/127.0.0.1:1099 [Root exception is javax.naming.ServiceUnavailableException: Failed to connect to server localhost/127.0.0.1:1099 [Root exception is java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused]]]

              at org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:686)
              at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(InitialContext.java:392)
              at org.jboss.Shutdown.main(Shutdown.java:219)

      [stack trace truncated for the sake of brevity]

       

      The issue is not classpath related as others have had in relation to ClassNotFound errors on shutdown.

       

      It was clear there was a connection issue to the jnp port on 1099. I checked netstat -an and saw the following:

       

      jboss_user@server_name:/opt/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.GA/bin% netstat -an | grep 1099
      tcp        0      0 192.168.1.24:1099      0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN

       

      I also confirmed using lsof:

       

      jboss_user@server_name:/opt/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.GA/bin% lsof -i:1099
      COMMAND   PID   USER   FD   TYPE   DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
      java    18738 jboss_user  175u  IPv4 40278677       TCP server_name.company.com:rmiregistry (LISTEN)

       

      Since it was clear that my jboss process was listening on port 1099 I figured there was an issue with how I was connecting to it. A little googling revealed that the jnp url could specified manually. I have added it to my jboss_init_redhat.sh script changing the folowing 3 lines as shown:

       

      #JBOSS_BIND_ADDR=${JBOSS_HOST:+"-b $JBOSS_HOST"}

      JBOSS_BIND_ADDR="192.168.1.24"


      #JBOSSSH=${JBOSSSH:-"$JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.sh -c $JBOSS_CONF $JBOSS_BIND_ADDR"

      JBOSSSH=${JBOSSSH:-"$JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.sh -c $JBOSS_CONF -b $JBOSS_BIND_ADDR"


      #JBOSS_CMD_STOP=${JBOSS_CMD_STOP:-"java -classpath $JBOSSCP org.jboss.Shutdown --shutdown"}
      JBOSS_CMD_STOP="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -classpath $JBOSSCP org.jboss.Shutdown -s jnp://$JBOSS_BIND_ADDR:1099 -
      -shutdown"

       

      I also added an echo statement for my shutdown command so that it would be clear what was happenning:

       

      jboss_user@server_name:/opt/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.GA/bin% ./jboss_init_redhat.sh stop
      JBOSS_CMD_STOP = /opt/java/jdk1.6.0_12/bin/java -classpath /opt/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.GA/bin/shutdown.jar org.jboss.Shutdown -s jnp://192.168.1.24:1099 --shutdown
      Shutdown message has been posted to the server.
      Server shutdown may take a while - check logfiles for completion

       

      I hope this saves some of you some time and energy in getting a stock Jboss 5.1.0.GA up and running - (as well as stopping correctly)
