After allowing +w for all on /var/log and /var/run, I get

{code}
[tdiesler at ip-10-28-130-52 wildfly-8.0.0.Alpha4]$ bin/init.d/jboss-as-standalone.sh start
Starting WildFly: chown: missing operand after `/var/run/jboss-as'
Try `chown --help' for more information.
                                                           [  OK  ]
{code}

The cmd completes with [OK], but there is no WF instance running.

The reason seems to be that JBOSS_USER is not set. The script expects /etc/jboss-as/jboss-as.conf - when standing up an instance on a cloud provider box there might not be a chance to write to those locations. 

There should be a fallback for log, pid locations that can always be written to (i.e. somewhere below wfhome).
The fallback for the JBOSS_USER could be the user executing the script.
