Description of problem:

It seems that "yum update" has installed certain rpms that break RHS
Console.

I have a RHS Console which was installed and configured on 2012-11-12.
Everything worked fine until I did a "yum update" today. The symptom is
that browser shows a blank page, not even "404 Error" message. But the
httpd log says "404 error".

The jboss log indicates there are problems with some jboss modules/files. I rolled back all the updates and RHS Console recovered and started to work again. 


Here are some of the error messages from /var/log/jbossas/server.log
