We have a troublesome JBoss server that recently displayed a new error and refuses to load our web application. No changes have been made to any configuration files - the error just appeared suddenly.

Read all of the JBoss startup,classloader, and bootstrap issues and followed the remedy at: Error starting jboss server but the solutions did not work for us. I apologize for my lack of knowledge and if this is an easy fix. We appreciate the assistance.

Here is the stacktrace:

  • Traced the exception in the AbstractContentMetadataPersister class at: http://grepcode.com/file/repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/org.jboss.jbossas/jboss-as-system/5.1.0.CR1/org/jboss/system/server/profileservice/repository/clustered/local/AbstractContentMetadataPersister.java but it seems like it just catches a generic Exception. I wonder if JBoss has issues reading a configuration file or a particular property. Do not see the AttachmentStore definition in our profile.xml file. – user3777525 Jun 26 '14 at 16:24
  • Going further down the stack trace we see that there is a org.jboss.xb.binding.JBossXBException: Failed to parse source: Premature end of file. @ *unknown*[-1,-1] error. The instructions listed on https://community.jboss.org/thread/162453?_sscc=t do not work. The closest error I found is at: https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/528413 but does not have a solution. – user3777525 Jun 27 '14 at 00:43

The solution was laughably simple. We cleared the auto-generated jboss/data directory and it fixed everything. Some binding files must have been corrupted and a clean restart had things working again.
