Using the Sun Data Mashup Engine

Configuring and Starting the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server

This topic provides information for configuring and then starting the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server.


Note –

Requires Java CAPS 6 Update 1 or Sun GlassFish ESB.


While working on creating a Data Mashup project in the NetBeans IDE you do not need to have the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server running.

ProcedureTo Start the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server

This topic leads you through the steps to start the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server.


Note –

You do not need the application server running all the time. When Data Mashup requires the application server, it automatically starts it.


  1. To start the NetBeans IDE, navigate to the appropriate directory and start the executable file.

    Platform 

    Directory Path 

    Executable 

    Solaris, AIX, and Linux 

    GlassFish ESB-install-directory/netbeans/bin

    ./netbeans.sh

    Windows 

    GlassFish ESB-install-directory\netbeans\bin

    netbeans.exe

  2. Start the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server in the NetBeans IDE.

    1. Select the Services tab.

    2. Expand the Servers node.

    3. Right-click GlassFish V2 and select Start.

    Wait until the message, “Application server startup complete,” appears in the Output window and a green arrow points at GlassFish V2 in the runtime window.

  3. Start the EDM Engine.

    1. Expand the GlassFish V2 node in the runtime window.

    2. Expand the JBI node.

    3. Expand Service Engines.

    4. Right–click sun-edm-engine and select Start.
