Hi, I have the following problem with Eclipse 3.4.2, JBoss 4.2.3 and JBoss Tools 3 under Windows XP: After starting JBoss within Eclipse, the server is successfully coming up and displays in the console: 15:13:02,145 INFO [Server] JBoss (MX MicroKernel) [4.2.3.GA (build: SVNTag=JBoss_4_2_3_GA date=200807181417)] Started in 17s:312ms But the state displays always "starting", and after the timeout, there was the following error-message: Starting JBoss 4.2 Server has encountered a problem. Server JBoss 4.2 Server was unable to start within 450 seconds. If the server requires more time, try increasing the timeout in the server editor. It seems, Eclipse never recognizes that the server has started. The log-file from eclipse contains after the server-start only the above message. I have searched the web for a long time and there are other people who have had this problem, but I have not found a solution for me. I can start JBoss manually in the command-line with run.bat, and this works without errors. In the file run.bat I have replaced JAVA_HOME with JAVA_HOME_FOR_JBOSS because I need another JRE for the JBoss-start, but this could not be the problem, because JBoss starts without problems in the command-line. Could anybody help me to solve the problem? View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4252335#...
