Description Cojan van Ballegooijen 2015-09-22 16:35:57 EDT

Description of problem:
No protocol specified java.lang.NullPointerException when trying to start 
java -jar jboss-dv-installer-6.2.0.redhat-2.jar -console
or
java -jar jboss-dv-installer-6.2.0.redhat-2.jar <file-name>.xml


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. RHEL TigerVNC to server with RHEL and configured to logon as root initially
2. su - jboss
3. start the installer using the above options

Actual results:
No protocol specified java.lang.NullPointerException

Expected results:
I don't expect to have any Nullpointer exception since I'm using console mode installation. Nevertheless the problem ws solved when TigerVNC logged in as the jboss user and not as root initially.
