Need to change the port that jetty uses

rgjawanda Apr 8, 2002 12:26 PM

I changed the port from 8080 to 8086 using the web interface and I notice it changes in the jboss window (jboss 3 beta). When I restart jboss it goes back to 8080. Does anyone know how to save this?

Also.
Does anyone know where to place the war file or how to at least change the context to my application directory (wherever that should be) for embedded jetty in JBoss 3beta.

I can't find the jetty.xml file and can't find any configuration anywhere.
Thanks for any input.
Ron

Everything is in jetty-plugin.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml

jetty-plugin.sar being a jarfile.

I know this makes it awkward to edit - it will be moved out in the final release - think of this as a development configuration.

I've decided to stay with the sar and not finally ship it unwrapped. This makes it much easier for the Jetty crew to continue with a release cycle that is orthogonal to JBoss' since we can simply ship you new jetty-plugin.sars if and when.

Just wanted to confirm that in JBoss 3.0 final release, that to change the port for jetty we must manually edit the jboss-service.xml file in jetty-plugin.sar. Is this correct?

You can always use the system property "jetty.port" on jboss 3.0.0 final.
For instance (on a Windows platform), you can update bin\run.bat and change lines:

rem Setup JBoss sepecific properties
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dprogram.name=%PROGNAME%

to:

rem Setup JBoss sepecific properties
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dprogram.name=%PROGNAME% -Djetty.port=<your_port>

Jetty should start now on <your_port>

Does adding the -Djetty.port=80 actually work?

On my linux box it doesn't. It upacks the webapp to a temporary directory with an 80 in it (instead of 8080) but still is listening on 8080.
