Instructions to Unbundle and Configure GlassFish

To install and configure GlassFish you need to have JDK 5 or JDK 6 installed on your system. The configuration processing depends on Ant (1.6.5).  The bundle includes an Ant distribution that has been extended with tasks to facilitate developing Java EE 5 applications for the application server.

  1. Download one of the bundles to disk.

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

  3. Unpack the JAR file that you downloaded. 
    % java -Xmx256m -jar filename.jar
    This command extracts the contents of the GlassFish JAR file and creates a new directory structure rooted under a directory named glassfish.

  4. Navigate to the glassfish directory.
     % cd glassfish
  5. Change permissions for the contents of the glassfish directory. 
    % chmod -R +x lib/ant/bin
  6. Run the Ant binaries that are included with the GlassFish bundle.

    • For a single instance:

      • UNIX[tm] systems:    %lib/ant/bin/ant -f setup.xml
      • Windows systems:      % lib\ant\bin\ant -f setup.xml

    • For a cluster:

      • UNIX systems:       % lib/ant/bin/ant -f setup-cluster.xml
      • Windows systems:    % lib\ant\bin\ant -f setup-cluster.xml

To get started with GlassFish, see the Quick Start Guide.

See Configuring the Cluster/Load Balancer with GlassFish V2 for how to do the load balancing after creating clusters on GlassFish V2.
