Cannot deploy an application to Glassfish 4.1 in Eclipse

Question

I have Glassfish 4.1 and Eclipse Luna installed on Ubuntu. When I tried to run a simple web application (jsp + servlet + java bean) I`ve received the following error:

Publishing to Glassfish 4 at localhost[domain1].. has encountered a problem. cannot Deploy mvcprj1 deploy is failing=Application with name [mvcprj1] is not deployed

Nothing is appearing neither in the glassfish server log or in the eclipse console.

Solution 1

I had same deployment issue (eclipse Lune/Glassfish 4.1) and it was resolved thanks to Marvin's feedback.

You can find the "Use JAR archives for deployment" by: right click on glassfish from eclipse server tab. Then, select Monitoring >Properties > Glassfish in new windows > Use JAR archives for deployment.

Then, the miracle occurs...

Solution 2

Try the following steps:

1. right click on glassfish server
2. click on properties
3. then you will get 3 options(general,glassfish,monitoring) at the left side of that box.
4. click on glassfish
5. click that checkbox "Use JAR archives for depolyment". Previously it was unchecked. That's why I was getting issue.

After doing this, you can also rightclick on the server and select "Clean" and afterwards uncheck the box again. After a redeploy everything will work as before.

This fixed the problem with Eclipse Neon too. Thanks

In 2019 eclipse 2019-09 R (4.13.0) and Glassfish is still the same. Thank you very much and thanks to @jowey - the clean trick works also!
