I’ve been running JBoss 4.2.2 GA for ages now under XP 64 and server 2003. Recently I decided to install server 2008 (x64) over my xp 64 installation and use it as my desktop as so many people love to tout…

Unfortunately now when I start JBoss ‘something’ – and i am assuming it’s somehow the windows firewall – prevents connections from working properly.

Nothing has changed, jboss was on a different partition, it’s based on java so all that is different might be the jvm (default java_home is x64 version: c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin)

I can fire up JBoss and go to http://localhost:8080… but i can NOT go to ‘http://{hostname}:8080’

i have disabled the firewall time and again – unblocked TCP port 8080 – NOTHING works…

Thanks!

UPDATE: tried it with x86 based java – no difference

  1. I’d say that you’re binding the socket to localhost. If you add the command line option ‘-b 0.0.0.0’ to the call to run.jar, it should fix your problem.

    There’s probably a more proper way to accomplish the same thing through a property. A quick Google search suggests jboss.bind.address, although many results suggest the above command line option instead.
