Wildfly CLI not working for me - jboss

Question

All I did was download wildfly-8.1.0.CR2 and extract it. standalone.bat and add-user.bat work but jboss-cli.bat does not.
F:\wildfly-8.1.0.CR2\bin>jboss-cli
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not load library. Reasons: [no jansi64-1.9 in
java.library.path, no jansi-1.9 in java.library.path, no jansi in java.library.path,
D:\pgarner\AppData\Local\Temp\jansi-64-1.9.dll: The application has failed to start
because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event
log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail]

When I start up Wildfly using standalone.bat I see the following entry for java.library.path in server.log:
java.library.path = F:\Java\jdk1.7.0_45\bin;C:\Windows\Sun\Java\bin;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;F:\WANdisco\uberSVN\bin;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;F:\GnuPG\pub;F:\7-Zip;"E:\WebTest\build\bin";F:\WANdisco\uberSVN\bin;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;F:\GnuPG\pub;F:\7-Zip;.
The following file does indeed appear on my file system when I attempt to run jboss-cli:
D:\pgarner\AppData\Local\Temp\jansi-64-1.9.dll
I also tried using wildfly-8.0.0.Final instead of wildfly-8.1.0.CR2 and the same exact problem happened.
How to resolve this problem? I assumed the CLI should just work right out of the box after extracting all the files out of the zip file.

Answer 1

We're facing the same error and the problem is due to the jansi dll dependencies. In fact you need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package corresponding to your platform. For x64, you can follow this link :

Answer 2

Have a similar problem. I can start Wildfly and deploy my application without errors, but everytime I redeploy my application, I get the following error:
Caused by:
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not load library. Reasons: [no
jansi64-1.9 in java.library.path, no jansi-1.9 in java.library.path,
no jansi in java.library.path, Native Library
C:\Users\zb\AppData\Local\Temp\jansi-64-1.9.dll already loaded in
another classloader]
It seems this jansi library is stuck after deploy.
Restarting the server helps temporarily.
