You can enable the socket connection by changing the attribute in the connector MBean. This change will not persist across application server restarts though. Alternatively you could edit jboss-profiler.sar/META-INF/jboss-services.xml and 1) Remove the duplicate socket attribute 2) Set the socket attribute to true:<attribute name="Socket">true</attribute> View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4145389#...
