Note how it says "Command -p failed"
CLI has no way of knowing that there is no Remote Command named "-p".
So it tries to call a command named "-p" with 2 arguments: "3000" and
"start-domain"
Since no port was specified (correctly) -- it tried the default port,
8080, got no answer and thus gave you the message about 8080 being
unreachable.
We have discussed adding support for allowing args like "-p", "-H",
"--user", etc. to appear either before */or /*after the command name.
That would have made your failure above not a failure. It also makes it
much easier to write scripts like:
asadmin --user xxx --passwordfile yyy -p 3456 $*
-- If you agree on the usefulness please file a bug or rfe and assign it
to me.
