Virtualization Server with JBoss

Hi,

I'm running Alfresco 3.2r.war with WCM in JBoss 4.2.3 on a Linux Ubuntu 8.04. I've started the virtual-tomcat from the wcm-package after a few modifications

in virtual-tomcat/conf/alfresco-shared.properties

alfresco.rmi.services.port=50500
alfresco.rmi.services.host=192.168.2.119
avm.remote.host=localhost
avm.remote.port=50500

in virtual-tomcat/conf/alfresco-virtserver.properties

alfresco.virtserver.domain=192-168-2-119.ip.alfrescodemo.net

in alfresco.war/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/repository.properties
avm.rmi.service.port=50509

setup a DNS Entry for alfrescodemo.net, which gives a reply when
ping master.alfrescosample.www–sandbox.192-168-2-119.ip.alfrescodemo.net

starting my "authoring" Installation on JBoss with

-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=192.168.2.119

I've created a web project following the instructions in the 2.1 Evaluation Guide but when I try to preview in "MySandbox" I receive a page with

Virtual website not found
    Bad host name:     master.alfrescosample.www–sandbox.192-168-2-119.ip.alfrescodemo.net

and an error in virtual-tomcat/logs/catalina.out

PM org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiClientInterceptor handleRemoteConnectFailure
WARNING: Could not connect to RMI service [rmi://192.168.2.119:50500/avm] - retrying

are there other modifications to do, when running virtualization server with a JBoss install instead of packaged tomcat?

Regards,
Babette

The VS needs Tomcat 5.5.    It can't run on any other AS since it uses the internals of Tomcat.

Thx for the quick reply. Actually the virtualization server runs on the Tomcat, but the corresponding main installation runs on the Tomcat integrated in JBoss. Is this a problem too?

That's O.K.
