Thanks for the quick reply Rob. The only entry in the event log is: "Timeout waiting for JBOSS 4.0 4 to start. Server did not start after 50s. " There is no log entry for 'Starting...' I forgot to mention I also get a dialog box warning with this same message. I found a place to set server timeout to 'Longer' but that seems to have no effect. (still 50s).
