Grave:   Exception while deploying the app [Sullimar] : Aborting, Failed to start container com.sun.enterprise.web.WebContainer

What do I do to fix these errors? In my Services tab I can access my databases, and my dabatase connection to my Sullimar database works fine (I can view the data...) so I can't underastand the problem. Thanks a million!

Answer 1

the error is easy, you need delete in WEB-INF/web.xml

Answer 2

Take a look at your server.log file. It's located under /$YouGlassfishRoot/glassfish/domains/$Domain/logs/server.log The problem is probably your server's jdk version.

Answer 3

Got the SOB to work. Turns out Windows firewall was blocking Netbeans (as it should), which for whatever reason requires incoming connections for deployment.

Try create a rule allowing inbound TCP for C:\\program files\\netbeans 8.0\\bin\\netbeans64.exe

Answer 4

I had similar problem on Windows 7, for you it's to late, but it could help somebody else. First there was no server.log file in GLASSFISH_INSTALATION_DIRECTORY\\glassfish\\domains\\domain1\\logs and the reason was that my user didn't have rights to write anywhere in GLASSFISH_INSTALATION_DIRECTORY (glassfish was installed with netbeans )

after fixing that I found "...Invalid resource : jdbc/..." exception and fix for that can be found at this webpage https://netbeans.org/kb/docs/web/jsf20-crud.html under Troubleshooting paragraph
