I got GlassFish version 2 ur1, but it does not start. I followed the Quick Start Guide. After the ant -f setup.xml finished ("BUILD SUCCESSFUL"), the command
$ asadmin start-domain domain1
produces a 16-line readout that ends with the following note:
Domain does not support application server clusters and other standalone instances.
Then I get my shell prompt back. The web browser finds no one home at port 8080.
In domain1's jvm.log, there are some "<dependency_failed" notices. In server.log, there are 8 lines that say "SEVERE", mostly variations on this theme:
Cannot bind to URL rmi: cow:8686 management rmi-jmx-connector:
(There were slashes in the URL, but I vacuumed them out because the forum truncated the message right there)
javax.naming.ServiceUnavailableException
[Root exception is java.rmi.ConnectException:
Connection refused...
Server stopped due to Server startup failure.
What can be done?
