Configure JBOSS to use a different port

1. Locate and edit the following file in the Eclipse folder.

eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.jst.server.generic.jboss_1.5.206.v20090115/servers/jboss5.serverdef


2. Change the default for the port property to 8081 or what ever port you are using and save the file.
   
   <property id=”port”
   label=”%serverPort”
   type=”string”
   context=”server”
   default=”8081″ />

3. Start eclipse, select your project, click on the Servers tab at the bottom of the screen.
4. Right click on the server you are using, select open, modify port property to match the port you specified earlier.
