Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException /bootstrap.xml

Hi,

I am getting below exception while starting the server. I read through various posts related to similar issue and tried few suggestions but none have worked for me. So, I am just wondering what can be the possible causes of server not locating this file. I would like to confirm that , the file exists at it's physical location.

Here are my env details:

• Linux
  
• jboss-5.1.0.GA
  
• jdk-6u20-linux-i586
  

I am starting the server using below command . -c option is used all the files are copied from 'default' location to 'JBOSS_SERVER_NAME'.

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_20
export PROJECT_HOME=/root/MYPROJECT/build/project_stage

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M"

export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n"

export JBOSS_HOME=/root/dumps/jboss-5.1.0.GA
export JBOSS_SERVER_NAME=project_server

export JBOSS_CLASSPATH=$PROJECT_HOME/config

set MODE=dev

export PROJECT_SERVER_DIR="-Djboss.server.base.url=file:/$PROJECT_HOME -Djboss.server.base.dir=$PROJECT_HOME"

# start JBoss server
echo starting JBoss server ...
$JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.sh $PROJECT_SERVER_DIR -c $JBOSS_SERVER_NAME

Are you running as root? You should not be.

Does /root/MYPROJECT/build/project_stage/project_server/conf/bootstrap.xml exist? According to your rearlier statement, "all the files are copied from 'default' location to 'JBOSS_SERVER_NAME'.". Does that mean that you copied /root/dumps/jboss-5.1.0.GA/server/default to /root/dumps/jboss-5.1.0.GA/server/project_server? If so, how does /root/MYPROJECT/build/project_stage/project_server relate to /root/dumps/jboss-5.1.0.GA/server/project_server? Is it s symbolic link? If so, try with without a symbolic link.

Yes, I am running as 'root' . Do you think this could cause any problem in running JBOSS. I am setting up a 'non-root' user run JBOSS.

Yes, the file bootstrap.xml does exist at the /root/MYPROJECT/build/project_stage/project_server/conf/ location.

The files are copied from 'default' to /root/MYPROJECT/build/project_stage/project_server and not /root/dumps/jboss-5.1.0.GA/server/project_server.

I hope this is clear now. Any help to resolve this error will be appreciated.

[peterj]

Yes, running as root can cause strange problems. And it also open a huge security hole.

If I understand correctly, you are try to run with the 'server' directory located someplace other than JBOSS_HOME/server. Wow, you are really asking for headaches. Why don't you want to use JBOSS_HOME/server?

Also, I noted the wrong file name in my first post. Here is the file that could not be found (and I have no idea why the '/root' prefix is missing, might have something to do with running as root):

Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /MYPROJECT/build/project_stage/project_server/conf/bootstrap.xml

I seriously doubt that file exists.

its a bug in jboss jboss-5.1.0.GA,I to got the same problem but i got solution,

made one change in  <!-- The attachment store -->  you can find it in  "jboss-5.1.0.GA/server/simulator/conf/bootstrap/profile.xml"

Added a line in    <parameter > shown in bold letters in below.

<!-- The attachment store -->

    <bean name="AttachmentStore" class="org.jboss.system.server.profileservice.repository.AbstractAttachmentStore">

        <constructor><parameter class="java.io.File"><inject bean="BootstrapProfileFactory" property="attachmentStoreRoot" /></parameter></constructor>
