Where exactly did you try to download it from?

You can find GlassFish here: https://glassfish.dev.java.net/

Thanks Jesper. I got the Server in .zip format. But when I try starting the default domain(domain1) from glassfish/bin/asadmin.bat file, it is throwing the following exception:

asadmin> start-domain domain1
java.io.IOException:

And it finally hangs up. Why is this happening and what is the solution. Please suggest.

Hi Mansukhdeep,
Can you check that glassfish is not already running?

Do you have permissions to write to that directory?

What Windows OS are you running on?

Hi Thomas
My machine is on "Windows 7 Ultimate". How do I check whether glassfish is already running or not and whether I have write permissions on that directory?

Hi Mansukhdeep,

A friend of mine had this same issue and I remembered that we found a forum hit on google for the problem: http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=400088

In my friend's case, it was a folder permission issue.

I think you could check for permissions in Windows 7 the same way you do in Windows XP (I use XP still), so I am guessing here but try:

Right click on the folder, and choose "properties" > select the "security" tab > select the user you are starting Glassfish with and check the permissions.

As for checking if Glassfish is already running, you should see a java process running and sucking up a bit of memory (try using task manager)

I am not sure what information is shown in Win 7 task manager, you could use Microsoft's sysinternals "process explorer" to give you more information regarding which java process is which.

Regards,
TY

Thank You Very Much Thomas Young.I was also facing the same problem.And I resolved it by allowing permissions on my glassfish installation folder(C:\Program Files\glassfish 3.0.1).And It completely solved my problem.
