      Hello,

      I have JBOSS 4.0.5 installed on Linux. I am able to start the server. But when I try to stop the server using /jboss stop it is throwing an exception shown below. Any idea what could the problem?

          What Linux distro? I do not recognize the command you mentioned: "/jboss stop"

          The typical mechanism to stop the app server (assuming it is running on the same box and is using the default JNDI port)is:

          ./shutdown.sh -S

          Also do this. Open the jmx-console, go to the jboss:service=JNDIView mbean and invoke the "list" operation and post the results. It would appear that either JNDI is messed up, or perhaps JNDI is not using the default port (1099).

            I started the server using sudo /etc/init.d/jboss start. It showed a message server started. Then tried stoping using /etc/init.d/jboss stop. Thatz when i got the exception. Even i tried ./shutdown.sh - S and still got the same exception.

            Also when i tried opening the jms-console it says page not found. servername:8080/jmx-console is the link i tried.

            version
            2.6.9-55.ELsmp
            unix version redhat relese 4,

              Let's first determine if the app server is really starting. Based on what you have posted, I do not think it is. Either that, or you are not waiting long enough for the app server to initialize before trying to stop it.

              I assume you used the bin/jboss_init_redhhat.sh script as the basis for /etc/init.d/jboss. Did you make any changes to that file? If so, what changes?

              Did you set JBOSS_CONSOLE? If you did, please post the contents of the log. If not, then jboss_init_redhhat.sh redirects the console log to /dev/nul. In which case you could look for the logs at server/default/log. But don't post them - they are too big. Instead, look in server.log for a message that says "started in xxx second".

              You did create a "jboss" account, right? Have you tried logging in as that account and running the app server using bin/run.sh? You reall need to do that first before attempting to start it the way you did. This way any problems will be apparent in the console log.

                Thanks a lot for your help.

                When I did run.sh It says the server Started in 9s:386ms

                But i see error messages

                log4j:ERROR Parsing error on line 409 and column 23

                and the last warning line is repeated continuously. With this when i try to get to servername:8080/jmx-console i get page not found.

                  OK, jbossas is not starting. Or actually, none of the services that matter, such as HTTP, started (is what I am guessing). Please post the entire console output after you enter ./run.sh.

                  What configuration changes did you make? I know you changed the log4j.xml file because there is no ORI appender in the file that comes with JBossAS. Also, did you change the login-config.xml file? It would appear that whatever editor you used to change it added unicode byte ordering characters to the start of the file (that is the most common reason for the error you are getting).

                  Please post any configuration files you changed (posting only the lines you added or changed is sufficient). Remember to enclose your XML text in UBBCode "code" tags - you can do this by selecting the XML text and clicking the Code button above the editor window. Also, click the Preview button to ensure that the formatting is correct and the XML text shows up before posting.
