    1. Edit the standalone.conf script in the bin directory under your JBOSS /bin directory to add

      -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

      -Dclient.encoding.override=UTF-8

      -Djboss.as.management.blocking.timeout=3600

      to JAVA_VENDOR.

      In case you are deploying a non-production setup, add

      -DENABLE_NON_PROD_MODE=true
