[ BUILD # : 200903250219 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ] The "Add Server Instance" dialog reports 'Server Location is not an "GlassFish v2.x" location' when I try to setup a new gf2 instance. The steps I followed are: 1. Install fresh instance of gf2 server into /home/neil/apps/glassfish 2. In Netbeans "Services" tab right click on Servers and choose "Add Server" 3. Choose "GlassFish v2.x" 4. Enter "/home/neil/apps/glassfish" into the "Server Location" field Error message is displayed.
I will look at this one.
what does the error message say?
how did you install your v2 instance? who 'owns' the install? Note: if you used the installer from http://java.net/download/javaee5/v2ur2/promoted/Linux/glassfish-installer-v2ur2-b04-linux.jar and/or http://java.net/download/javaee5/v2ur2/promoted/Linux/glassfish-installer-v2ur2-b04-linux-ml.jar, you may want to verify that you followed the instruction on this page: https://glassfish.dev.java.net/downloads/v2ur2-b04.html. If you installed the server as a different user, you may want to create a personal domain, since you won't be able to write into the log directory.... The wizard should have pointed that out to you though.
I will add a special message for the situation where the user has not run 'ant -f setup.xml'...
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *200904141401* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/fbfbbc9bd8f9 User: Vince Kraemer <vkraemer@netbeans.org> Log: #161394: improve message when setup hasn't been run before attempted registration
I think this addresses the filers concerns.
