java.io.FileNotFoundException during JBoss EAP startup

Issue

During the bootup process, JBoss EAP throws java.io.FileNotFoundException, and there is no server.log file in the target directory. Even creating a server.log manually, JBoss EAP does not write any log to it.

log4j:ERROR Failed to create directory structure: /var/log/sample_path
log4j error: setFile(null,true) call failed.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/log/sample_path/server.log (No such file or directory)

• The JBoss EAP does not start correctly, the error appears when we try to start a deploy called Example.war. That is when the log shows a timeout of 300 seconds and does not allow to deploy contexts.
