Does anyone have an idea about how to solve this error ?

Thank you

Answer 1

As hamed pointed out, you don't have ejbca.properties file or the file is missing the appserver.home entry.

Answer 2

From the installation guide of EJBCA:

Configure EJBCA so it can find the application server (JBoss).

echo "appserver.home=/home/user/jboss-as-7.1.1.Final" >> ejbca_6_0_3/conf/ejbca.properties

You need to customize the user and maybe your jboss und ejbca version :). Or maybe as well the whole path if you did it completely different.
