Jboss EAP 6.4 Server logs are not properly updated - jboss

JBoss startup and Server logs are not getting updated completely like started in XXXX ms. But all the services are being deployed successfully. Is there any way to debug why the logs are not printing?
Thanks,
Kusuma

Just check on your the logging subsystem configuration in your standalone.xml.
If that's not the issue, this is probably a problem with your application configuration and not JBoss, probably you just have to exclude some logging libraries in your jboss-deployment-structure.xml, to use the provided and not the jboss instance libs.

Standalone.xml file of jboss equivalent in websphere

I'm trying to migrate a web app from Websphere to JBoss.
I believe the first step is to port the configurations of the server. The main configuration file in Jboss is standalone.xml (or domain.xml for running multiple instances of a server).
Could you tell me what the equivalent of standalone.xml is in websphere ?
Thank you for your time.
There is no direct equivalent. WebSphere is administered via the administration console. If you run WebSphere Express you can connect directly to the app. server's administration port. If you run Network Deployment, you connect to the deployment manager console (DMGR).
The console has all the configuration. They are stored in many XML files, that can be a pain to use directly. Much easier with the console.
The default console port is 9060 (http) or 9043 (https).
URL:
http://yourserver:9060/ibm/console
https://yourserver:9043/ibm/console
See this technote: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21155098
for a bit more information.
You can look at this migration guide for JBoss AS 7.

JBoss 4.0 HotDeploy

good day.
I am trying to enable hot deploy on my JBoss 4.0.
I have tried to access to localhost:9990, but it doesn't work.
Is there any alternative way to enable it?
Thanks in advance.
JBoss 4.0 contradicts to port 9990.
The port 9990 is the management console access for JBossAS7 and WildFly.
JBoss 4.0 might have a JMX console which is accessible via 8080.
You can simpel use localhost:8080 and navigate from the welcome page.
Note that hot deploy is not recommended for productional JBossAS4/5 instances because of class loading issues, OOM errors.
You might use it for development.
Also JBossAS4 does not have managed deployments, simple drop the file to server/yourProfile/deploy and it will be picked up and deployed.

JBoss AS 7.1.1 Remote Application Monitoring

atm I'm facing some problems when I'm trying to connect to my JBoss AS 7.1.1 (on a Linux-Server) via JMX remotely and monitor my Java-Apps from a Win-7 client. I can only see the standard JVM settings but no app-specific ones.
I learned that I have to include the jars in the Classpath while starting jvisualvm on my Windows 7 client.
that looks like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_07\bin\jvisualvm.exe" -cp:a C:\Users\myuser\jboss-as-7.1.1.Final\modules
But still it is not working...when I try to connect via:
service:jmx:remoting-jmx://:9999
Is there any special configuration I have to change in my JBoss server besides enabling jmx-management in standalone.xml?
Thanks in advance!

JBoss 5.1.0 disabled HDScanner, undeploying post restart doesn't work

I have disabled the HDScanner bean (by removing JBOSS_HOME/deploy/hdscanner-jboss-beans.xml) in JBoss 5.1.0 so that I must do all deployments to running instances through Twiddle (applications found in the deployment directory are automatically deployed on startup).
After I have done this I can deploy and undeploy a war by using the following commands:
twiddle.sh -s localhost invoke "jboss.system:service=MainDeployer" deploy "file:/path/to/my.war"
twiddle.sh -s localhost invoke "jboss.system:service=MainDeployer" undeploy "file:/path/to/my.war"
This works fine.
However, if I restart JBoss between the deploy and the undeploy, when I try to undeploy the app using twiddle, the app remains deployed and the JBoss logs display :
2011-04-18 14:30:41,318 WARN [org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer] (WorkerThread#0[10.21.4.61:43700]) undeploy 'file:/path/to/my.war' : package not deployed
Am I doing something wrong, expecting something that's not possible, or is this a bug in JBoss?
If I am doing something wrong, what is the correct way to undeploy an app that has been deployed using twiddle on an instance of JBoss that has been subsequently restarted?
Edit
Without looking at the source code of JBoss, it seems to me that apps that are deployed on startup are managed in a different place from those deployed through Twiddle. Ie if an app is deployed at startup it is not known of by the mechanism accessed through Twiddle, hence the "package not deployed" error.
So, is there a way to access this other deployment manager through Twiddle such that apps that are present at startup can still be undeployed?
I have done a lot of testing on this, and basically apps that are found at startup are (rightly) considered to be part of the JBoss 'core' and are therefore deployed automatically as part of the startup process. This applies for things such as the jmx-console, and therefore applies for other .wars too. Whether through design or through consequence, these resources that have been automatically deployed during startup cannot be managed by twiddle invokations.

Unable to see new MBeans in JBoss 5.0

I've been going through several examples on how to add MBeans to JBoss 5.0 so they can be configured though the JMX Console, but none of these examples have ever shown up in the JMX view. I've now tried to get ehCache's JMX integration to work to no avail.
I'm trying (as in the ehCache documentation) the following:
CacheManager manager = CacheManager.create("./ehcache.xml");
MBeanServer mBeanServer = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer();
ManagementService.registerMBeans(manager, mBeanServer, false, false, false, true);
I never see any errors with my own or now with the ehCache version, but it never shows up in the JMX view. I'm wondering - is there a setting I need to make to to the JBoss configuration to get it to pick up these additions? Am I missing something fundamental? Any hints?
Thanks for any help. I'm pulling my hair out here.
If you're running JBoss on Java 5 or above, then you'll likely have 2 MBean servers running: the "platform" mbean server, which is hosted by the JVM, and the JBoss MBean server, which is hosted by the JBoss code. The two have nothing to do with each other.
Your posted code will register ehcache's mbean in the JVM platform server, which is no use to you.
The easiest way to get a programmatic reference to the JBoss MBean server is
org.jboss.mx.util.MBeanServerLocator.locateJBoss()
Try using that instead of
ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer();
