That log line doesn't show up, not in a fresh install of 9.0.1.Final (downloaded again this morning), nor in 8.1.0.Final. In the wildfly admin console I can see the deployment listed as succeeded, but I again don't find any reference to the web context nor the localhost url, not even in the undertow component. Seeing as I can't guess it either, I think the http service isn't actually there - but it would be nice to somehow confirm this.

Note: this issue is NOT about whatever is causing my http service to be not available (I must have made a mistake somewhere), instead it's about me not having enough feedback from wildfly 9 to determine what's going on: it says it's deployed, it's a war with html files, but I can't find it. It should it say where it is or why it's failed.
Especially because deploying a war is a typical first user action, the error message experience is important to improve adoption.

> But as a developer, it's very hard to figure out the url to test the app, especially if someone changed it recently. Note that in my case it could be any of these, depending on the state of the jboss-web.xml, war file name (potentially exploded), IDE configuration, etc:
> - http://localhost:8080/optaconf-webapp-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT/
> - http://localhost:8080/optaconf-webapp/
> - http://localhost:8080/optaconf/
