If you look into the standalone.bat/.sh you will find detailed usage. standalone.bat --debug this will start your JBoss server in standalone mode listening on port 8787. If you want override the port you can do that with simpliy adding the number at the end. standalone.bat --debug 8888

As I was playing around with JBoss 6 and I found that by default it only binds to localhost. ie.: If you type in your machine's name and port into the browsers address bar ("http://machine:8080") it won't respond. To make this work you need to add the "-b yourip" parameter on startup. For example on windows it would look like this standalone.bat -b 192.168.1.64 You can also configure this in the standalone.xml You can also find some further reading in the documentation .
