The jboss server can only be started and stopped for a single iteration. If you attempt to start the server again, then it will display in the bottom corner that the server is starting, but it never does start. This was found on windows using the 1.6 jre.
Which build do you use and also platform? I think this issue is already fixed in the latest daily builds.
It was simply the Java EE 5 Tools Bundle from http://www.netbeans.org/downloads/index.html It was used on the windows platform. Where is the daily build for this?
