When I start my appserver (Sun Java Application Server Edition 8) from inside Eclipse using the Run/Stop server icon it seems to start okay.
But when I open up the admin web page I see “java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: C”

If I start it outside eclipse I don’t see this.
Is it something to do with my path entries in Preferences\Application Servers? They all start with C (eg C:\Sun\AppServer). I tried file://C:/… but it didn’t like that.

Thanks for any help

Can you please post all the information we request in the [URL=http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-393.html]Posting Guidelines[/URL] thread at the top of this forum? That will give us some context so that we can determine if this is an installation issue, a configuration problem, or a bug. Thanks.

Can you dump the entire startup log from Sun App server here for me to look at as well while it tries to startup?

[rogerparkinson]

Sure thing….

Damn I was hoping for something more telling than a perfect startup… have you checked the forums.java.sun.com for the same TYPE of error, so someone can maybe help say “Oh you need XYZ on your classpath” then I can tell you what you need to do with MYEclipse… but right now, since the app server is starting, and since my local copies of Sun APp 8 and 8.1 both start/run fine, I really don’t know what to suggest.

Try and see if you can find someone else having the same problem and see what the problem is, then I can help you duplicate the fix in ME.

[rogerparkinson]

There’s nothing obvious. I think I will switch to JBOSS.
Thanks for your help, though. It is nice to have such rapid replies.

[Riyad Kalla]

Good call, that tends to work out of the box for most people.
