JBoss comes with 3 different server profiles, namely "minimal", "default" and "all". You can see these folders under %JBOSS_HOME%/server. The difference between these profiles is that "minimal" provides the minimal functionality, "default" provides almost all the functionality except clustering, whereas "all" profile even provides clustering. When you use the run.bat (without the -c parameter), the "default" instance is started. The other profiles are ignored. So any changes that you want to be visible will have to be made in the appropriate profile. If you want to start some other profile instead of the default profile, then use run.bat -c profilename Ex: run.bat -c all View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4136515#...
