JBoss fails to start from Eclipse

Question

I recently migrated from Netbeans and GlassFish to Eclipse and JBoss. I have installed the eclipse-jboss tools, and the server runtime is set up properly (afaik at least).

The problem I have is that whenever I try to start JBoss from Eclipse, I get this:

20:37:23,853 INFO  [org.jboss.modules] JBoss Modules version 1.1.1.GA

I have googled this and tried all workarounds I could find, including (!!!) giving jboss-as.service root priviliges (EDIT: which is pointless since Eclipse does not even touch systemd in this case). Nothing helps. Could anyone help? It would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: This is interesting:

Answer 1

On mac I had it with WildFly after(I suppose) copied external file to wildfly dir. As guys said it was permissions issue and

chmod -R 777 [wildfly dir]

helped. Not that accurate, but fast solution if you are under development cycle.

Answer 2

I see the error - JBAS015843: Failed to create temp file provider.

I guess you are using Windows 7. Windows 7 asked me to give the process permissions to create files in Windows\Temp directory from a separate dialog. You might have to locate that dialog and give permissions. This does not have anything to do with windows service, since you are starting jboss from eclipse.

Answer 3

you have to ensure your user is in group jboss-as.

also check if that group has write permissions to the symlinked directories under the /usr/share/jboss-as/standalone

there could be some files owned by root if you started the JbossAS before. And most likely your user cannot write to those files.

Answer 4

I also faced the same problem when working with eclipse JUNO in windows 7 environment. I was trying to run jboss AS 7.0 server from eclipse juno and I was getting the same errors.

I then realized it may be because I installed jboss EAP 6.0 package under "c:\program files". I then uninstalled my jboss EAP 6.0 and re-install it in "c:\" and point the eclipse's jboss server adapter to new location. This solution works for me!

I don't know why windows 7 treating program files as a different directory.

Answer 5

check permissions set on $JBOSS_HOME/standalone especially $JBOSS_HOME/standalone/log directory

for heck of it what does chmod -R 777 $JBOSS_HOME/standalone do? not that I recommend this beyond debugging...

as giving jboss-as.service root privileges does not do much, as eclipse does not use that service to run AS7 but runs it manually.

Answer 6

It was a wierd space issue.

df -h

Above command had issued that there was considerable space in the file mount. while,

df -PhI

Had concerns of no space on the mount, Indicating that I-Node was out of space. Extending more space was the solution followed.
