JBoss admin-console fails to load - missing Log4J jar? -


i downloaded jboss 5.1 , unzipped

~/jboss/ 

such jboss installed into:

~/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.ga/ 

i run default deployment using following command found in jboss/jboss-5.1.0.ga/bin

./run.sh -c default 

while jboss starts (http://127.0.0.1:8080/), admin-console not deployed. log file:

jboss/jboss-5.1.0.ga/server/default/log 

shows following information:

deployments in error:   deployment "vfsfile:/users/jackwootton/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.ga/server/default/deploy/admin-console.war/" in error due following reason(s): org.jboss.deployers.spi.deploymentexception: url file:/users/jackwootton/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.ga/server/default/tmp/az6n6v-tjilfb-h32fokxn-1-h32fosuo-v/admin-console.war/ deployment failed   deployment "vfszip:/users/jackwootton/jboss/jboss-5.1.0.ga/server/default/deploy/quartz-ra.rar/" in error due following reason(s): org.apache.commons.logging.logconfigurationexception: user-specified log class 'org.apache.commons.logging.impl.log4jlogger' cannot found or not useable. 

the log4j jar file exists in:

jboss/jboss-5.1.0.ga/lib/jboss-logging-log4j.jar 

i have 3 questions:

  1. have understood problem correctly (i.e. admin-console cannot find required log4j jar file , therefore not deployed)?

  2. what can fix problem?

  3. why out-of-the-box deployment have problem in first place?

the problem missing jars in classpath. added following jar files (found in lib directory of jboss installation) classpath:

concurrent.jar  getopt.jar  jaxb-impl.jar   log4j-boot.jar  trove.jar dom4j.jar   javassist.jar   jaxb-xjc.jar    osgi.core.jar   wstx.jar 

since i'm using mac os x followed this stackoverflow post on adding jars classpath.

one tip: added jboss jars classpath (jboss-xxx.jar), results in jboss looking in /library/java/extensions configuration files.
