   You need to set the application server and database properties in the process of running install-gfv2.xml. You have to specify path for a password file (a text file containing the password) for GlassFish. If MySQL is installed on your machine, stop GlassFish and choose MySQL instead of the HSQL database, and make changes to the portal-ext.properties file as described in the To Connect to a Database Other Than HSQL section. Provide a password file, and restart GlassFish. Provide properties such as hostname, port number, and database name. Make sure that Ant version is 1.7 or greater and JDK is 1.6 or greater. GlassFish need to be running if you are installing on HSQL.
