Jboss only works on localhost:8080 ,but doesnt reply when called by ip
I installed JBoss 5.0.1 and ran it , but when i called it from the same computer on localhost:8080 it works but when i call it from other computer it doesnt work at all using the computer IP ... when i had tomcat it used to work on both.so Does anybody know the problem?
Answer
If you want JBoss to communicate on all IP addresses that are on the machine, then you can start it with the -b option passing 0.0.0.0 as the ip address, e.g.
-b 0.0.0.0
Probably better is binding to the specific IP address that you want to. You can do this again by using the -b option, but passing the IP address you want to bind to or the DNS name you want to bind to, e.g.
-b 192.168.0.1
or -b jbosshostname
You can put the -b option in the run.bat file so it is used automatically if you are running JBoss as a service - assuming Windows. If you are not using Windows, you can place this option in the run.sh file.
If you do not wish to put the -b option in the run.sh/bat file, you can enter it at the command line:
run.bat -b 192.168.0.1
