Please use the JMXConnectorServerFactory here: your code will be more portable.

Please report:
1. Is Tomcat running on HTTPS or plain HTTP. Does it have both
connectors listening ?
2. Is Tomcat really listening on port 8080 ?
3. Where are your web services deployed ? MX4J uses an Axis service
called "AdminService" to deploy the JMX web service. Make sure that
this service is properly deployed at this URL:
http://WIRVITXP:8080/SOAP/AdminService
If this is not the case, then you should either change the
JMXServiceURL path or the Axis deployment.
