This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
If JBoss JMX invoker is secured, i.e. in jmx-invoker-service.xml the following line is NOT commented: <interceptor code="org.jboss.jmx.connector.invoker.AuthenticationInterceptor" securityDomain="java:/jaas/jmx-console"/> then Netbeans does not know that the server is started, as a result, application cannot be redeployed from Netbeans without manually stopping the server. I think that Netbeans should ask for username and password, this would work in most cases. BTW, Eclipse WebTools have also problems with this...
Could you please provide the exact configuration of your JBoss server (the version, how it was installed - archive/jar, your security settings, etc.)?
My JBoss version is 4.0.5, installed using JAR installer in EJB 3.0 configuration. JMX invoker was secured using standard method: http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=SecureTheInvokers. When JMX invoker was secured, then Netbeans was unable to detect if server is running and to shutdown the server, which is ok, because in order to do this things while invoker is secured, you need to give username and password. Netbeans should detect that JMX invoker is secured and if yes, should ask for username and password - this could be also added to the server configuration in Netbeans.
Thanks for the explanation and suggestions. It is more an enhacement than a bug and hopefully we are able to implement it within the NB6.0 time frame.
please close this issue if you forgot to earlier. If this issue is still open, please change the target milestone to reflect the current commitment.
