Question

i have installed the netbeans version 6.8 with glassfish version 3 on a redhat machine.
the thing is that when i try starting/stopping the glassfish via the netbeans, it works fine, BUT when i try starting the glassfish via:

./asadmin stop-domain domain1

i get the error
“GlassFish requires Java SE version 6. Your JDK is version 4”

i have got only one JDK instance installed

rpm -qa | grep jdk

will return “jdk-1.6.0_18-fcs”

any ideas ?

Answer 1

Set the environment variable AS_JAVA to point to your 1.6 JDK. (asadmin will use bin/java within that directory). AS_JAVA must be set in glassfish/config/asenv.conf
