How to install JBoss?

Download jemsinstaller (jar file) and make sure that you have JDK in your machine. You can start installation by double clicking the jemsinstaller jar file or by giving the command 'java -jar ’ in your command-line. You can download JBoss in many different formats too but this is the easiest one to install if you are a beginner and you have a GUI in your machine. You can also install this jar file using the command-line ($ java -jar jems-installer-1.2.0.jar installscript.xml). Here you can specify the configuration options in the installerscript.xml. The GUI based installation will allow you to generate the installation script automatically in the installation completed panel. For a beginner I recommend to use the GUI based installation of JBoss once and then go for the more advanced command-line installation of JBoss. Once the installation is complete you try http://localhost:8080/ if you can see the test page, you are done with it.
