How do I connect the NetBeans profiler to a specic remote instance - netbeans

I have a remote GlassFish server that has a node agent configured. The instance I want to start in profiling mode is controlled by the node agent.
I've installed and calibrated the remote pack and I've modified my domain.xml for the specific instance as follows:
<profiler enabled="true" name="NetBeansProfiler">
<jvm-options>-agentpath:/home/glassfish/glassfish/profiler-server-6.0rc1-linux/lib/deployed/jdk16/linux/libprofilerinterface.so=/home/glassfish/glassfish/profiler-server-6.0rc1-linux/lib,5140</jvm-options>
</profiler>
Now at this point NetBeans tells you to start the domain with the --verbose command but in my case I'm trying to start an instance and "asadmin start-instance" doesn't support --verbose. I've checked the server.log but I'm not seeing any error nor any language that says it's waiting when I try to start the instances.
However, I think GlassFish is properly configured and my NetBeans setup is the issue. Where I think the issue might be is trying to specify the port. If I leave the port off, it just tries to connect forever. If I put the port on it just closes the dialog and the status shows "Inactive".
UPDATE:
It seems there might be a bug with GF2. After verifying everything and getting the server so that it was listening, the following exception is thrown
Could not load Logmanager "com.sun.enterprise.server.logging.ServerLogManager"
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.enterprise.server.logging.ServerLogManager

According to this URL, http://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISH-3256 it's a known issue and won't be fixed until GF3.
Anyway, my question was about how to connect to a specific instance and I think that was answered.

Do not include the port number in the hostname field. The port number is taken from the global profiler settings.

Failed to read challenge file [Caused by java.io.FileNotFoundException: /jboss/standalone/tmp/auth/local4123__.challenge (No such file or directory)

I am trying to connect two machines both running JBoss EAP 7.1.0 using a JMS bridge. Machine 1 is to act as a web server and has a WAR file deployed which is accessible, and Machine 2 is to act as the app server and has all the necessary components deployed just fine.
This is the error I am receiving:

The connection to the target machine (application server) is being made as the path to JBoss is that of the path on the machine, which I verified by testing with a Windows application server environment and the path was the correct Windows path to the directory where the challenge file should be, so clearly the connection is being made as the directories are being accessed. However, the .challenge file isn't present each time which understandably causes the error message.
I have scoured SO and JBoss forums for days now and nothing is resolving my issue.
I saw this post: JBOSS-LOCAL-USER: javax.security.sasl.SaslException: Failed to read server challenge
This is the same issue that I am facing, but the answer which was marked as correct doesn't help me very much. The solution, in this case, was to replace the default ApplicationRealm with a JAAS realm, but I do not know if this is what I need, and I certainly do not currently have one. I did research it, but it seemed to not be applicable to my setup, but I could be wrong.
I also tried this solution: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3209281 (Subscription only access)
This solution was to remove default-user="$local" from here:
<security-realm name="ApplicationRealm">
<authentication>
<local default-user="$local" allowed-users="*" skip-group-loading="true"/>
I did this to both standalone-full.xml files on both machines, and it appeared to make no difference at all.
I have created application users on both machines and given them superuser privileges through the JBoss console as I figured it was probably an issue with permissions when trying to write the file but this too was to no avail. I have also verified that both user credentials are correct.
The workaround was to switch to using a core bridge instead of a JMS bridge, as per the recommendation from Justin in the comments.

Error invoking a remote EJB method from a JSF managed bean in a portlet

I am trying to deploy a JSF portlet into a Liferay portal 6.2 running on top of a JBoss EAP 6.4, with OpenJDK 8. The portlet is deployed as a WAR file, but invokes some methods of an EJB through a remote interface. The EJB is deployed as an EAR file directly on JBoss.
On my developing machine it is working fine. But in a test machine it is not. There are exactly the same WAR and EAR files, the standalone.xml setup is almost the same for both machines, and also the JBoss modules are the same.
The stacktrace printed in the log is the following:

I rised the log level to "org.jboss.ejb.client" and now I see two interesting messages just before the stactrace:
22:13:16,684 DEBUG [org.jboss.ejb.client.EJBClientContext] (ajp-/0.0.0.0:8009-5) org.jboss.as.ejb3.remote.LocalEJBReceiverPreferringDeploymentNodeSelector#4bc9113e deployment node selector selected node for appname=SS-ADMINIS-ear-1.0,modulename=SS-ADMINIS-MAVEN-EJB-1.0,distinctname=
22:13:16,687 DEBUG [org.jboss.ejb.client.EJBClientContext] (ajp-/0.0.0.0:8009-5) Selected node doesn't belong to eligible receivers. Continuing with a random eligible receiver
Note that there is no node name in both messages (two blanks before "node").
In my developing machine, where it works, the first message does include a node name, and the second message does not appear:
18:56:37,902 DEBUG [org.jboss.ejb.client.EJBClientContext] (http-/0.0.0.0:8080-2) org.jboss.as.ejb3.remote.LocalEJBReceiverPreferringDeploymentNodeSelector#6db73304 deployment node selector selected spio node for appname=SS-ADMINIS-ear-1.0,modulename=SS-ADMINIS-MAVEN-EJB-1.0,distinctname=
The only diference is that in my machine I am going directly with the browser to the server ([Browser] -- HTTP --> [JBoss]) while in the testing machine I go through a load balancer ([Browser] -- HTTP --> [Apache] -- AJP --> [JBoss]). That is reflected in the messages (ajp-/0.0.0.0 vs http-/0.0.0.0).
The exception is thrown when I try to invoke a method from the EJB through the remote interface. The reference to the local stub is gotten by means of a lookup, and the result is not null. There are no errors at deploy and the lookup does not throw an error neither.
What can be happening or what am I missing?
A friend of mine found the solution.
Something a did't say is that the testing machine was in fact a docker container. And it seems that there is a bug in JBoss with docker making the former to not read the hostname to pick a node name, so de node name when it starts is empty. So the message above a empty name node being selected is shown, and then the error.
The workaround is to specify a node name with the -Djboss.node.name parameter to JBoss. I put that setting in the standalone.conf, restarted the JBoss and it worked fine. Now, the first message shows the name I specified, and the second message does not appear, nor the exception.

Issue with MyEclipse Proxy Connection

I am unable to get MyEclipse to connect to the marketplace. I am aware of the proxy setup. These are the steps I followed within a proxy environment and within a direct environment.
A. Within the Company Network. (browers use automatic configuration script)
Chose Native option. Does not work.
Chose Manual option. Set the domain, username. Opened the proxy script to figure out available proxy servers. Verified independently that these proxy servers work. Does not work.
Modified the vmargs to provide the http host, user, password and port properties. Does not work.
Did steps 1-3 with restarts of Eclipse.
B. Within home environment. (Direct connection to internet)
Tried Direct Option. Does not work.
Tried Native Option. Does not work.
The error message that I constantly see (through error logs) is this.

Is there any alternative or any other step that I can take to resolve this problem. I know I can go through the manual update by downloading the plugin and all. But I really want to solve this issue.
MyEclipse Version Information:
MyEclipse Blue Edition
Version: 10.7.1 Blue
Build id: 10.7.1-Blue-20130201
Apparently it could be a bug.
I just read this whole bug report here.
I tried adding the VM arguments to ensure the the HTTPClient workaround can be achieved via a configuration change. Did not work.
However, I was able to remove the http client libraries from the plugins folder, courtesy Comment #27 and #29 on the bug report.
Now I'm able to connect over proxy and direct as well.

NoRouteToHostException / NoSuchHostException on remote JMX call

I'm having trouble making a remote JMX call to JBoss 6 on a Centos 5.6 server. I've previously been able to do this when running the same app on a Debian server.

The same call succeeds if I run it locally on SERVER. I've opened port 1090 with iptables, and I can connect via telnet to SERVER:1090. hostname -i returns the correct IP address.
I've also tried starting JBoss with -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=localhost. If I do this, then I get a different exception:

It turns out that in addition to port 1090, JMX/RMI also uses a dynamically allocated port, which gets blocked by the firewall. So, if it's appropriate, disable the firewall altogether, or else this seems to be an alternative (which I've not tried yet):
http://olegz.wordpress.com/2009/03/23/jmx-connectivity-through-the-firewall/
What I did was this:
Update the file activemq.xml and specify rmiServerPort.
<managementContext createConnector="true" connectorPort="SOME_PORT" rmiServerPort="SOME_OTHER" jmxDomainName="org.apache.activemq"/>
Allow both ports by updating your iptables entry, restart activemq and it should work.

What on earth does this mean, and how can I fix it? I have searched for ages but with no success.
netstat reveals nothing running on any ports in the 8000 range, (all tomcat ports are there), and right-clicking the shortcut and selecting 'run as administrator' doesn't help :(
Tomcat is trying to use port 8080, so it can't be a permissions error with that port, and the
'The system detected an invalid pointer address in attempting to use a
pointer argument in a call. '
indicates that it is not a problem with duplicate things trying to access the same ports, but something much stranger.
Odds are:
1) You are already running another web sever on that port (8080?) in which case you should shut it down and then try restarting tomcat in Eclipse.
or
2) Eclipse is running as a non-root user and trying to bind to port 80. In that case, edit tomcat's conf/server.xml and change "80" to "8080" wherever you see it (2 or 3 places I think)
