You can use whatever port you want, just make sure the port number in the script that starts JBoss matches the port that you have in your Eclipse debug configuration.
I suppose the "default" port for JBoss is whatever it is set to in the comment in the run script (8787?). The default in the maven-jboss-plugin is something different (4142). But again, it really does not matter as long as you have the same port specified in the script and in Eclipse. -Max On Thu, 2006-02-23 at 09:38 +0530, Shasirekha Engala wrote: > Hi Chandra > > I am using Jboss with Eclipse and the operating system I am using is > windows XP.
