Here are the steps I used to add the server to the JBoss Server view: 1. From the JBossIDE toolbar dropdown (Decorated ?J?), choose New->New Server. | 2. In the ?New Server? dialog, on the ?Define a New Server? panel, under the JBoss Inc node (Not JBoss), choose ?JBoss AS 4.0? and click Next>. | 3. On the ?Create a new JBoss Server Runtime? panel, enter a Name for the Runtime ?JBoss 4.0?. | 4. For the runtime ?Home Directory?, click the ?Browse?? button and navigate to the root directory of your JBoss4.0.5 installation; for example, jboss-4.0.5.GA. Click ?OK?. | 5. choose your installed Java 5 JRE from the JRE: dropdown list. | 6. Select the ?default? ?Configuration?. Click ?Next>?. | 7. On the ?Create a New JBoss Server? panel, enter a name for the new server instance: ?JBoss4ins1. Accept the remaining defaults and click Finish. | 8. A new server instance named ?JBoss4ins1? should now be visible in the JBoss Server view with a Stopped status. | | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3980666#...
