Yesterday i downloaded GlassFish 5.0 and JDK9. When I'm trying to run server with asadmin start-domain GlassFish send to me exception
When I try to use "asadmin start-domainAfter" I got respond: "Remote server does not listen request on [localhost 4848]. Is the serwer up?"
Any can help me with this? I looked for solution at google, I tried kill process using port 4848, change port 4848 in domain.xml on another one, nothing helps.
It's my firts time with glassfish I don't know what to do. Anyone can help me?
I'm working at windows 7, InteliJ Ultimate 2017.2.4, JRE 1.8 and JDK 9.
GlassFish 5.0 not starting on JDK 9 is a known issue.
GlassFish 5.0 is certified only on JDK 8 (u144) as stated in the release notes:
https://javaee.github.io/glassfish/doc/5.0/release-notes.pdf
I use Windows 10 and I have installed JDK and JRE for version 9 and 8u141, 8u151, 8u144 (installed for test about this problem)
For exception I had had the same problem : the command "asadmin start-version" throw an exception.
Just check the version from CMD console :
C:\Users\xxxxx>**java -version**
java version "9.0.1"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9.0.1+11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.1+11, mixed mode)
Problem JAVA_HOME and PATH environment viariables are JDK8u151 ???
To solve the problem, the documentation advice that :
Alternatively, you can specifically set the Java path with the AS_JAVA property in the in the as-install/config/asenv.conf file.
C:\DEVENV\glassfish5\glassfish\config>dir
Le volume dans le lecteur C s’appelle OS
Le numéro de série du volume est 10BF-2BBE
Répertoire de C:\DEVENV\glassfish5\glassfish\config
08/09/2017 07:27 <DIR> .
08/09/2017 07:27 <DIR> ..
12/01/2018 17:44 3 516 asenv.bat
...
Consequently, I add the last line below :
set AS_IMQ_LIB=..\..\mq\lib
set AS_IMQ_BIN=..\..\mq\bin
set AS_CONFIG=..\config
set AS_INSTALL=..
set AS_DEF_DOMAINS_PATH=..\domains
set AS_DEF_NODES_PATH=..\nodes
set AS_DERBY_INSTALL=..\..\javadb
**set AS_JAVA=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_151**
Relaunch CMD console and start server with asadmin start-domain : it works properly....enjoy.
As mentioned above GlassFish 5.0 leverages new features in Java SE 8,
and is certified today on Java SE 8. Even though we have a lot of work
in front of us with the transition to the Eclipse Foundation, our
current intent is to certify Java SE 9 in an upcoming GlassFish 5
release.
JDK 9 should be supported in the next update, i.e. GlassFish 5.0.1
See end of https://blogs.oracle.com/theaquarium/java-ee-8-is-final-and-glassfish-50-is-released
If you are on a mac or linux machine, add the following to config/asenv.conf in your glassfish installation directory.
set AS_JAVA="path to your jdk 8"
For example, in Mac OS it will be
AS_JAVA="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_161.jdk/Contents/Home"
Anyone having problems with NullPointerException, look out for your system PATH Variables. Be sure that they point to an acceptable JDK (As it was said before: GlassFish 5.0 is certified only to work on JDK 8u144). This NullPointerException is caused by using an incompartible JDK as mentioned here: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19226-01/820-7688/gipqi/index.html
In my case the PATH variable was correctly pointing to java8u144 bin, but my PATH also contained a pointer to C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath. And someway an old version of java SDK was stored on \ProgramData\Oracle so GlassFish was using this old version of java as SDK.
