Jboss 6.1 doesnot start without any error or log in Eclipse Helios


Server: jboss 6.1-Final
Eclipse Version: Helios and Indigo

When jboss 6.1 was started from Eclipse Helios or Indigo without jboss tools plug-in, the server doesn’t start without any error or log. The problem seems to be jboss 6.1 expects a vm argument on logging.properties.

When the logging.properties is set in vm arguments, the server started without any problem.

In Eclipse, go to server tab, Click on server and then Arguments, in VM arguments section provide the below entry

-Dlogging.configuration=file:"\bin\logging.properties"
