When I run jboss start from the prompt , I am getting this error

[root@localhost ~]# service jbossd start
/etc/init.d/jbossd: line 8: -Djava.awt.headless=true: command not found
â?"n Starting JBoss
.
***************************************************

if i type this at the prompt /opt/jboss-4.0.3SP1/bin/run.sh -Djava.awt.headless=true , jboss starts as needed.
I thought it was not able to get the path for java..however thats set in the environment variables. This is the output of my export command for user jboss
