Jboss - mapping IP instead of localhost - works from within eclipse But not from run.bat without options

I start the JBOSS server from within eclipse and it is able to bind to the computer name [ ip address] , but when i try to start it using run.bat , it just binds to 127.0.0.1 .

From run.bat : 

*INFO  [WebService] Using RMI server codebase : http://127.0.0.1:8083/*

From within Eclispe : 

*INFO  [WebService] Using RMI server codebase: http://myIP:8083/*

So is it something that Eclipse uses different files , whereas run.bat uses separate ones .

My Analysis :

When the server starts , the run.jar is called , inside which there is a Main.class

C:\jboss-5.0.1.GA\jboss-5.0.1.GA\bin\run.jar

and in this : org.jboss.Main and this sets the property to 127.0.0.1 : 

this.props.setProperty("jboss.bind.address", "127.0.0.1");
System.setProperty("jboss.bind.address", "127.0.0.1");

Then it checks if any option i.e. -b or something else has been specified and if so then uses it .

So i understand , why JBOSS without any options connects to 127.0.0.1 and with an option connects to the specified IP .

But what i still cannot understand is why does Eclipse connect to my ip . I am not specifying any options , or maybe i am but i don't know . So if anyone can point me to that Or maybe does it have its own implementation of JBOSS , or different files set ??

After adding server to Eclipse IDE from:

  1. Preference->Server->Runtime Environments
  2. Add Jboss Server

Then select your required project and from the context menu select Run As -> Run On Server Then select your added Jboss server and then replace the: Server's host name field value from localhost to your PC IP address. enter image description here

Then click Finish. Hope this will work Thanks.

The answer being that you can set it in eclipse . I guess it got set for my server Or by default it is already set .

enter image description here

And since it is set to -b 0.0.0.0 .. So it works .

Wel it took me close to 2 hours to figure this out . I just hope someone stumbles it on quicker .

There are a lot of other threads , but they just don't specify this step .

Hope it helps .
