I am trying to start JBoss 7.x in debug mode by uncommenting the JAVA_OPTS line in standalone.conf file. I see a very strange behaviour that JBoss does not start, it quits with the error " JDWP Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, TRANSPORT_INIT(510)" BIND problem. Has any one seen this issue. Port number is 8787 and when I do netstat I don't see anything running on 8787.

Any ideas?

if netstat | grep 8787 does not give any result, then you could try with netstat -an | grep 8787 to see the state of all sockets.

please provide the value of the JAVA_OPTS variable.

Point 1: the JAVA_OPTS can be found in two files : run.conf and run.conf.bat. It should be un-commented only in one place, otherwise you will get some error like 'multiple definition of JAVA_OPTS', or something like that.

Point 2: Accidentally, I hit the exact same error as you did - JDWP Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, TRANSPORT_INIT(510) - while following the advice from https://stackoverflow.com/a/1921406/11233118

setting address with address=HOSTNAME_OR_IP:8787 is wrong. Use only address=8787. Don't know if that is the cause of your problem, but I got that error this way. Please take a look at https://stackoverflow.com/a/516214/11233118 for detailed set-up information.
