Hi Brian

Thanks for clarification and sorry for late response.

I created Feature Request to add expose MBean server through HTTP management interface: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-3426

It would be great to have MBean server exposed via Wildfly HTTP Management interface, but I know several teams which would like to have such functionality in JBoss AS 7. This is why I started looking at Darran's port to JMX console (https://github.com/dandreadis/wildfly/commits/jmx-console). I rebased it, detached from Wildfly parent and pushed to my branch (https://github.com/altanis/wildfly/commits/jmx-console-ported). The same WAR file seems to work correctly on JBoss AS 7 as well as Wildfly.

In my opinion it would be great to have this console available publicly. Is it possible to make the WAR file available through JBoss Nexus (perhaps thirdparty-releases repository)? If it is, I'd squash all commits and push only jmx-console code into new github repository (to make it separate from Wildfly).

Best regards

Sebastian

I agree that if we exposed the mbean server over HTTP that it should be
via a context on our HTTP management interface. Either that or expose
mbeans as part of our standard management resource tree. That would make
integration in the web console much more practical.

I don't see us ever bringing back the AS5-style jmx-console.war that
runs on port 8080 as part of the WildFly distribution. That would
introduce a requirement for EE into our management infrastructure, and
we won't do that. Management is part of WildFly core, and WildFly core
does not require EE. If the Servlet-based jmx-console.war code linked
from WFLY-1197 gets further developed, I see it as a community effort
for people who want to install that on their own, not as something we'd
distribute as part of WildFly itself.
