Unable to see login page after starting JBoss ON 3.2 when setting a specific IP address

Solution Verified - Updated -

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Operations Network (JON) 3.2.x

Issue

server.log shows that the server starts up correctly, but when opening jon via web, the page does not display anything.

According to netstat output, JBoss ON is starting with a different IP (i.e. 127.0.0.1) instead of the ip set up in rhq-server.properties.

[root@jon bin]# netstat -napt | grep 7080
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:7080              0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      11526/java          
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:7080              127.0.0.1:42616             ESTABLISHED 11526/java          
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:42616             127.0.0.1:7080              ESTABLISHED 11667/java

Resolution

A specific IP address should be set in jboss.bind.address to bind the JBoss ON server. If it does not work properly, check if there is any bad configuration in /etc/host.
