Hi, The zip file I am using is jboss-4.2.3.GA.zip. However, I was just informed by support for the vendor whose application depends on JBOSS that I must run version 4.0.5. So I will download the jboss-4.0.5.GA.zip file. Will that work OK with the JDK 1.5.0_17 that I currently have? I suspect this will not make a difference in my problem. I do agree that it must be something like what you suspect. Something with my SUSE setup or configuration maybe.
