Glassfish Directory Deployment (explode Ear)

Wed, 04 Jul 2012 14:12:27 +0000

Recently I was struggeling with glassfish directory deployment. Actually it is quite easy:

unzip the ear-File (eg. example.ear) to a directory without .ear
then go into this directory and unzip all war and jar files to directories named _jar and _war (only on this directory level, don’t touch the files in /lib)
now copy the folder into your domains-autodeploy-folder

For more convenience, use this script. I think it is selfexplaining.

Glassfish 3.1.1 increase asadmin deployment timeout

Thu, 01 Mar 2012 16:48:18 +0000

Recently I was wondering why the deployment of a EAR-File on Glassfish 3.1.1 over the Web-Administration-Console or with asadmin took very very long in compare to local deployment with eclipse. The EAR-File is about 50 MB of size and contains a complex web-application. With eclipse deployment takes about 20 seconds. With administration-console or with asadmin the deployment takes more than 10 minutes. As the default deployment timeout value of asadmin is 600 seconds i even wasn’t able to deploy it at all.

Installing Glassfish 3.1 on headless Centos 5.5

i run into some problems installing glassfish on a centos server without X-Windows. You can use the glassfish installer, but actually just unzipping the glassfish-zip is the easier method.

Method 1: Installing just with a zip file (easy method)

1. you have to get a java sdk and install (i used the rpm provided by oracle)
2. get the glassfish zip-file install package
