Has anyone succeeded to install the JOSSO Agent on a JBoss AS 7.1.1? - jboss7.x

Question

I'm using JOSSO version 1.8.8 (also tried 1.8.9.SNAPSHOT)...
I used the installer (as posted on www.josso.org) to install the agent and the sample partnerapp. When I start JBoss, the sample app won’t deploy.

Ik made no changes to the JBoss AS, just extracted it to a folder and tried to setup JOSSO.
(fyi, I did exactly the same on a TomCat server, and there everything went fine)
Any ideas?
(Also, I've already tried 4 times to post this topic on the JOSSO discussion board, but it seems they won't allow it...)

Answer 1

Enable TRACE level logging for org.jboss.modules package in the logging subsystem of your standalone.xml/domain.xml file.
Remove the INFO level of Console and or FILE appender so that those TRACE level logs do get logged in the server.log file
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:1.0">
<console-handler name="CONSOLE" autoflush="true">
edit or remove
<level name="INFO"/>
<formatter>
<pattern-formatter pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%E%n"/>
</formatter>
</console-handler>
<periodic-rotating-file-handler name="FILE" autoflush="true">
edit or remove
<level name="TRACE"/>
add this in the appropriate section
<logger category="org.jboss.modules">
<level name="ALL"/>
</logger>
It is quite possibly a dependency that didn't get loaded.
