Glassfish throws an UnknownHostException on install when the hostname of the local machine does not appear as an alias of 127.0.0.1. Eg if the following appears in the hosts file: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 lincoln.LOCALDOMAIN Glassfish cannot resolve the hostname and throws this exception: SEVERE: property_reader.unknownHost java.net.UnknownHostException: lincoln: lincoln at java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost(InetAddress.java:1346) at com.sun.enterprise.util.net.NetUtils.getCanonicalHostName(NetUtils.java:89) at com.sun.enterprise.util.ASenvPropertyReader.setSystemProperties(ASenvPropertyReader.java:188) at com.sun.enterprise.cli.commands.S1ASCommand.<init>(S1ASCommand.java:140) at com.sun.enterprise.cli.commands.BaseLifeCycleCommand.<init>(BaseLifeCycleCommand.java:86) at com.sun.enterprise.cli.commands.CreateDomainCommand.<init>(CreateDomainCommand.java:84) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:27) at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:494) at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Class.java:350) at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:303) at com.sun.enterprise.cli.framework.CommandFactory.createCommand(CommandFactory.java:76) at com.sun.enterprise.cli.framework.CLIMain.invokeCommand(CLIMain.java:150) at com.sun.enterprise.cli.framework.CLIMain.main(CLIMain.java:63) However if you change the first line of the hosts file to 127.0.0.1 localhost lincoln it will work. ** Affects: glassfish (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Glassfish unknown host exception on install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184963 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
