I want to play around with glassfish on a Mac, but I'm having trouble getting it to start.
I've followed the installation instructions and created a default domain, which seemed to go fine, but when I try to start it (asadmin start-domain domain1) it just sits there:
[kris_at_Macintosh-2:~/glassfish] ./bin/asadmin start-domain domain1
Starting Domain domain1, please wait.
Default Log location is /Users/kris/glassfish/domains/domain1/logs/server.log.
Redirecting output to /Users/kris/glassfish/domains/domain1/logs/server.log
The log contains nothing but the command to launch the server:

start
Eventually, asadmin gives up waiting:
Timeout waiting for domain domain1 to go to starting state.
CLI156 Could not start the domain domain1.
This is using glassfish v2.1, but I get similar behaviour on v3 prelude. I've also tried both java 5 and 6. I'm at a loss as to what sort of debugging to do as it doesn't seem to be even getting off the ground.
