Configuration Manager fails when JBoss default port is changed

Issue

The Configuration Manager fails when the user changes the JBoss default port from 8080. It results in no reponse from the JBoss service.  

The issue occurs when the user modifies the JBoss listen port in the lc_turnkey.xml file from 8080 to other port.

For example, lc_turnkey.xml: Port 8080 --> 9999

<socket-binding name="http" interface="any" port="${jboss.http.port:8080 --> 9999}"/>

User experiences an error message similar to the following:

Error message

Resolution

Before you change the default port, you must know that the port change is supported only for http, not for https.

To successfully modify the default JBoss port:

  • Modify the port in lc-turnkey.xml file: 
    For example, lc_turnkey.xml: Port 8080 --> 9999
    <socket-binding name="http" interface="any" port="${jboss.http.port:8080 --> 9999}"/>

  • Add a property turnkey.jboss.webport  in the lcm.properties file under the Configuration Manager with the value of new port.
    For example, turnkey.jboss.webport=9999
lcm properties
  • Run Configuration Manager to apply the modifications.
