I am trying to install RHQ Version 4.12 according to the book.
It seems simple enough, but I cannot get it to work. The underlying Jboss AS does not seem to boot up and the installation procedure stops with:
15:39:17,223 ERROR [org.rhq.enterprise.server.installer.Installer] The installer will now exit due to previous errors: java.lang.Exception: Cannot obtain client connection to the RHQ app server!!

I found some threads over at the jboss forum, but they did not offer any help. Example would be https://developer.jboss.org/thread/230622
I am running this on a vagrant machine with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Oracle Java 1.7.0_65-b17. I attempt the installation running bin/rhqctl install
Any idea what is going wrong?
Did you try to check the server.log file? It would be interesting to know why the server did not start (if it didn't).
