Hi Karel,

I've done the following test using the subsystem integration tests:

1) Removed the following line from the picketlink-subsystem.xml:

https://github.com/picketlink/picketlink-as-subsystem/blob/EAP_6.2/src/test/resources/picketlink-subsystem.xml#L92

When starting the server I'm getting the following error:

Is this what you are expecting ?

Btw, I've updated the documentation with the download link to the EAP 6.2 installer (this one was specially for you ):

http://docs.jboss.org/picketlink/2/latest/reference/html_single/#picketlink-overview-installer

Thanks.
