Location of GlassFish Server Logs

Question

I have NetBeans IDE installed on a Windows 7 64-bit machine. Obviously, NetBeans comes with the GlassFish server.

I am currently having problems with a project and

Answer 1

In general the logs are in /YOUR_GLASSFISH_INSTALL/glassfish/domains/domain1/logs/.

In NetBeans go to the "Services" tab open "Servers", right-click on your Glassfish instance and click "View Domain Server Log".

If this doesn't work right-click on the Glassfish instance and click "Properties", you can see the folder with the domains under "Domains folder". Go to this folder -> your-domain -> logs

If the server is already running you should see an Output tab in NetBeans which is named similar to GlassFish Server x.x.x

You can also use cat or tail -F on /YOUR_GLASSFISH_INSTALL/glassfish/domains/domain1/logs/server.log. If you are using a different domain then domain1 you have to adjust the path for that.

Answer 2

Locate the installation path of GlassFish. Then move to domains/domain-dir/logs/ and you'll find there the log files. If you have created the domain with NetBeans, the domain-dir is most probably called domain1.

See this link for the official GlassFish documentation about logging.

Answer 3

tail -f /path/to/glassfish/domains/YOURDOMAIN/logs/server.log

You can also upload log from admin console : http://yoururl:4848
