How to add JBoss Server in Eclipse?

Since Eclipse Mars 2 (JEE edition), JBoss Tools can be directly dowloaded from the New Server interface:

New Server

Selecting JBoss AS, WildFly, & EAP Server Tools will install JBoss Tools. After installation, the view will include JBoss/WildFly:

New Server with JBoss/WildFly


Follow the below instructions if Eclipse Mars 1 is used.

It is simply not built-in into the Eclipse distribution. You need to install JBoss Tools from the Eclipse marketplace (Help -> Eclipse Marketplace and search for "JBoss Tools").

More specifically, the feature you are asking for is documented here:

http://tools.jboss.org/features/server.html


I faced the same problem, what I did was change the eclipse.ini point JDK version 1.8. Jboss Tools required 1.8.

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_51\jre\bin
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8

Here is the solution follow below steps

  1. In Eclipse Mars go to Help-> Install New Software
  2. Click on add button and paste the URL of the update site which is in our case: Eclipse Mars tools for Jboss
  3. Now select the JBossAS Tools plugin and Click "Next"

If server or tool you wanted(like glassfish,jboss) isn't listed then click download Additional server adapters and download desired adapter.After that all related servers and tools will be listed then follow instruction here -
