JBPM 6.1 Final with Jboss Wildfly - failed to start .WeldStartService - jboss

Question

I tried running the JBoss server(Wildfly 8.1.0 Final) rolled out with jbpm 6.1 and could not get it running the jbpm-console.war, it has been very annoying, as the installation goes smoothly without any issues and no changes were made to any configurations, so I guess it should deploy normally.
This is the issue I am running into

JBAS014777: Services which failed to start:service jboss.deployment.unit."jbpm-console.war".WeldStartService
The server won't start no matter what.
There have been many instances of this issue reported here and here
but non of these issues have proper solutions. Any ideas on how to fix this issue ?
My environment is :
Windows 8
Java 1.8
Eclipse Luna
Jboss Wildfly 8.1 Final
Using the default H2 database

The error that you are experiencing is because you are trying to start wildfly without being connected to the internet or with an intermittent connection. Remember that jBPM is a community project so you guys can help with the documentation to make it better.
Try by removing the .niogit (hidden) directory that is created inside your wildfly/bin/ directory and try to start it again.
If you want to start without the demo repository, because you are offline or you cannot get online, you can do that by setting a flag that is well described in the documentation. Section: 3.6.1. Playgrounds
-Dorg.kie.demo=false
