Before start the installation, verify the availability of java in your linux node.
$ java -version java version "1.6.0_0" IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-Fedora-10) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12) OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0_0-b12, mixed mode)
Now you need the latest version of Glassfish application server, I’m using Glassfish V2 for Linux for this installation. I’m going to download this file to /opt dir.
$ lwp-download http://java.net/download/javaee5/v2ur2/promoted/Linux/glassfish-installer-v2ur2-b04-linux.jar
once finished, execute
$ java -Xmx256m -jar glassfish-installer-v2ur2-b04-linux.jar
Files will be decompressed in a directory named /opt/glassfish
switch to glassfish dir and type
$ chmod +x -R lib/ant/bin $ lib/ant/bin/ant -f setup.xml
Ok, its almost done. Let’s start the server now.
$ bin/asadmin start-domain
Now type http://localhost:8080 and see it’s working. you can reach to the admin console http://localhost:4848 here with default username/password. (admin/adminadmin)
hope this helps some one.
