When trying to start JBoss, the following stuff gets written to the server.log: ... 2004-10-10 13:22:55,551 INFO [org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer] nested deployment: file:/var/lib/jboss/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat41.sar/naming-common.jar 2004-10-10 13:22:55,552 INFO [org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer] nested deployment: file:/var/lib/jboss/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat41.sar/tomcat41-service.jar 2004-10-10 13:22:55,552 INFO [org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer] nested deployment: file:/var/lib/jboss/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat41.sar/commons-beanutils.jar 2004-10-10 13:22:55,552 INFO [org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer] nested deployment: file:/var/lib/jboss/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat41.sar/servlets-webdav.jar 2004-10-10 13:22:56,361 ERROR [org.jboss.web.tomcat.tc4.EmbeddedTomcatService] Starting failed org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: No suitable Log constructor [Ljava.lang.Class;@10980e7 for org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger at org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl.newInstance(LogFactoryImpl.java:532) at org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl.getInstance(LogFactoryImpl.java:272) at org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory.getLog(LogFactory.java:414) at org.apache.commons.digester.Digester.<init>(Digester.java:346) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.tc4.LoggedXmlMapper.<init>(LoggedXmlMapper.java:35) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.tc4.ConfigHandler.applyHostConfig(ConfigHandler.java:55) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.tc4.EmbeddedTomcatService.initCatalina(EmbeddedTomcatService.java:430) ...

I expect this problem is something similar to the problem described in bug report 59079, but it isn't a duplicate because it is a real problem and not just an assumption. There's no web server after starting JBoss. Note: the "minimal" version of jboss doesn't report any errors. I expect it to not use web services at all. The problem occurs with "default" and "all" config. Adding SERVER_SETTINGS="${SERVER_SETTINGS} -Djboss.server.base.dir=${SERVER_HOME}" to /etc/conf.d/jboss doesn't help. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge jboss 3.2.3 2. /etc/init.d/jboss start 3. less /var/log/jboss/server.log Actual Results: Half-initialized JBoss without web service! Ports 8080 and 8082 not accessible. Expected Results: Everything should be all right, ports 8080 and/or 8082 (?) should be accessible.

I believe that this bug can be closed as WONTFIX by the java team. 3.2.3 is old by any standards and I am hoping to have the jboss-4.* ebuilds that fordfrog and myself have been working on added to the tree shortly. At that point I believe all previous jboss builds should be removed. Until then jboss is being worked on available in the migrated-java-experimental-overlay.

Closing bug. Removed from tree, till we get a maintainer and current version from source.
