[jboss-user] Deployment Errors on startup of JBOSS

[Mike Hancock]

I've been trying for some time to install a working JBOSS (5.0.0.GA) without success.  I've read the "Installation And Getting Started Guide" and tried to follow those instructions.  I downloaded the zip file and extracted it per the guide above.  I checked and added/revised environment variables, again per the guide above.  I've searched the JBOSS forums for posts with similar issues - all to no avail.  I would really appreciate some help with this - sample of stack trace below from boot.log:
  org.jboss.deployers.spi.DeploymentException: Error deploying: file:/C:/jboss-5/jboss-5.0.0.GA/server/default/conf/bootstrap/vfs.xml
