Description
GlassFish
GlassFish is the go-to Java EE 2 application server from Sun. It's not just any server; it’s production quality and really performs well!
Getting Started with GlassFish
If you’re looking to install and configure GlassFish, make sure you have JDK 5 or JDK 6 on your system first. The setup relies on Ant (version 1.6.5), but don’t worry! The bundle comes with an Ant distribution that’s got extra tasks to help you develop Java EE 5 applications easily.
Download and Setup
You’ll want to download one of the bundles onto your disk, and then set JAVA_HOME to point at the JDK you've installed. Here’s how you can kick things off:
Run This Command
% java -Xmx256m -jar filename.jar
This command will unpack GlassFish and set up a new directory structure under a folder called 'glassfish'. Pretty neat, right?
Navigating Your New Setup
Next, just navigate into that new directory like this:
% cd glassfish
Setting Permissions on UNIX Systems
If you're using a UNIX-based system, you'll need to give execute permissions for the Ant binaries in the GlassFish bundle. You can do that with this command:
% chmod -R +x lib/ant/bin
% lib/ant/bin/ant -f setup.xml
