I have nearly the same problem. I had the server running just fine, went to deploy a Java App from NetBeans and POW! The server NEVER started up again! I've been hacking at it all day. Even tried uninstall and reinstall, same problem. Now I have the server and NetBeans installed on another system, works just fine so far but I HAVE NOT tried to deploy that Java App, nor will I until I can figure this problem out. I deleted the domain1, created a new one, still will not start up!
