Hello,

I’m trying to add Glassfish V2.X, but I’m having trouble.

Whenever I go to server -> configure -> glassfishV2.X ->

It then asks for “home directory” && “configuration directory” && “etc..”.

I haven’t downloaded Glassfish, so how does this work?

Can you tell me, and provide the links that I need to get glassfish up and running?

Thank you.

johnSteele,

I would recommend you to follow the below steps to install & Configure Glassfish V2.x server in MyEclipse.

Steps to install and configure GlassFish Server v2.1

1) Download GlassFish server(glassfish-installer-v2ur2-b04-windows.jar) from the following link.

https://glassfish.dev.java.net/downloads/v2ur2-b04.html

2) Set JAVA_HOME to the JDK you have installed on your system.

3) From command prompt, Run the following command

>java -Xmx256m -jar glassfish-installer-v2.1-b60e-darwin.jar

This command will unbundle GlassFish and create a new directory structure rooted under a directory named ‘glassfish’.

4) Go to GlassFish home directory.

5) Set path= GlassFish- Home -Directory/bin; as an Environment variable(if not exists).

6) Set the execute permission for the Ant binaries that are included with the GlassFish bundle.

GlassFish- Home -Directory/lib/ant/bin/ant -f setup.xml

7) Add a new environment variable AS_ADMIN_USER=admin.

Optional Steps:

a) Go to GlassFish home directory/bin folder in windows Explorer and double click the “asadmin.bat” file then one new command prompt will be opened.
b) To start the server, enter “start-domain”(It will starts the default domain “domain1”).

Admin username:admin
Admin Password:adminadmin
Master Password:changeit
Note: These are all default values

c) Open browser and enter the following address to enter into admin console.

http://localhost:4848

d) To stop the server, enter “stop-domain” from admin prompt.

Steps to Configure Glassfish from MyEclipse

1) Open MyEclipse IDE.
2) Open Preferences Page. You can get it from window>preferences
3) Select Glassfish 2.x in preferences page. You can get it from MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench>Servers>Glassfish.
4) Select Enable
5) Click browse to Glassfish home directory. Accept all the remaining default values.
6) Click Apply>OK.
7) Run Glassfish server from “Servers” view.

Let me know how this works for you.
