My Rails app won't deploy from the GlassFish admin console. The error message that pops up in the admin window is useless. I checked the server log and there is a "Invalid property syntax" error (full error below). Here is what I did:
1. Installed the JDK 6 (Windows server)
2. Installed GlassFish v3
3. From the updater, installed JRuby and JRuby Gems (jRuby and Rails now inside the GlassFish directory)
4. Had to go to the command line, navigate to the JRuby bin directory to install additional Gems.
5. Went to the Application Deployment screen and specified the Rails directory for my app (no WAR file).
6, Deploy -> error
I suspect the problem may be a path or some other config problem, but the error message doesn't help much:
