JBoss Not Running

rmhpirate Apr 13, 2007 2:30 PM

I have tried everything and cannot get JBoss to run. I have downloaded and installed JDK 1.5 into the following directory: c:\Java. I have downloaded and installed JBoss into the following directory: c:\JBoss. I have set a new system environment variable as: JAVA_HOME with a value of c:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11.

When I open a cmd window and navigate to c:\JBoss\bin and attempt to run "run.bat" I get the following:

"Could not locate C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\bin\lib\tools.jar. Unexpected results may occur. Make sure that JAVA_HOME point to a JDK and not a JRE."

I'm loosing my mind. Help is greatly appreciated.

Does C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\bin\lib\tools.jar actually exist? What files/directories are in the c:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11 directory? You should see:

THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.txt
bin
demo
include
jre
lib
sample

Everything that you have listed is in the c:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11 directory. However, I cannot find c:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\bin\lib\tools.jar. In the bin directory of that path there is only a client directory and a server directory.

Sorry, I didn't look closely enough at the directory name. It would appear that you have JAVA_HOME set to c:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\bin.
