I get an exception when I shutdown JBoss server from within Eclipse. I use Jboss 4.2.2GA.

Thank you for your advice

Solution

  • See this issue, where it has been fixed. JBoss AS4 is quite old, so they might not backport fixes that old. Unless you plan on updating, you just might have to live with it.

    Other option is to tweak shutdown.sh script yourself.

    However, if the problem only exists in Eclipse and not if you run the script manually yourself, it is a problem in Eclipse-JBoss integration, and in that case updating that should help.
