First of all make sure that you can get the "injboss" tutorial example running, so that you know how to set up loadtime weaving for an instance you manage yourself. The jar to use for the -javaagent when running with jboss is pluggable-instrumentor.jar not jboss-aop-jdk50.jar : | set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dprogram.name=%PROGNAME% -javaagent:C:\myjboss\bin\pluggable-instrumentor.jar | I am not sure what JBoss IDE or jbosservice use run.bat or if they invoke the jboss Main class themselves.
