wildfly-10.0.0.CR5: bind.address is only working on 127.0.0.1

[mayerw01]

I've realized a "strange" behaviour in wildfly-10.0.0.CR5.

When I use the standard standalone-full.xml configuration the server starts up fine. But when I change eg the jboss.bind.address.management address to some other value the server logs messages like

2015-12-26 11:56:56,073 INFO  [org.wildfly.extension.messaging-activemq] (MSC service thread 1-7) WFLYMSGAMQ0002: Bound messaging object to jndi name java:jboss/DefaultJMSConnectionFactory

The ping confirms that the address is OK.

Do you have any idea where the problem might be?

I have tested with WildFly 10 CR5  and i do not see the issue which you reported.  So it looks like there might be some issue at your Network interface configuration.

I checked the following to test:

I started my WildFly 10 CR5 as following:

$ ./standalone.sh -Djboss.bind.address.management=168.252.85.132
.
.
=======
OUTPUT
=======
12:21:51,229 INFO  [org.jboss.as] (Controller Boot Thread) WFLYSRV0060: Http management interface listening on http://168.252.85.132:9990/management
12:21:51,229 INFO  [org.jboss.as] (Controller Boot Thread) WFLYSRV0051: Admin console listening on http://168.252.85.132:9990

I verified if the above mentioned interface exist or not as following:

$ ifconfig | grep 168.252.85.132

So please check your problematic interface if it is listed in the "ifconfig" command output or not ?

NOTE: If i enter a non existing interface/IP-Address then only i can see the error as following (So you will need to check your interface is correct or not) .  In the below case i intentionally entered an incorrect Interface detail "160.160.84.131" (non existing IP)

./standalone.sh -Djboss.bind.address.management=160.160.84.131
