Just try running standalone.sh script in debug mode :
./standalone.sh --debug
This starts the jboss in debug mode, and the port 8787 is open for debugging.
Start remote debugging from eclipse using 8787 as the debug port.
In case your jboss is started as a service , locate your startup script in /etc/init.d directory and
add --debug flag to the standalone.sh script invocation. This will help your service to always start in debug mode.
