I really would love some help!!! I am unable to "Add a jboss management user" while finishing
jboss 7 install. The command ./add-user.sh produces a
response that there is no such file or directory. However
within in there is
./add-user.sh*. I am not sure if the "*" has something to
do with the issues that I am running into. I still have not
been able to find a solution online.

I have some questions regarding data sources at 5:58 min of the video. You did mention we need to add thing on the driver section but don't we need to make some changes at the drive section below the JBoss example driver. The configuration file i have doesn't have the anything with mysql below the jboss driver examples. And also is the url locahost: 3306 a default or I need to find one?

Where did the connection URL come from? You hadn't mentioned it earlier.
