Why can't I reach Glassfish admin gui?
glassfish, google-chrome, user-interface
Solution
Try accessing the console using this url: `http://localhost:4848/login.jsf` `http://localhost:4848` doesnot redirect to `http://localhost:4848/common/index.jsf` as the url doesnot exists.
Problem
Either I start Glassfish domain from NetBeans or from the `asadmin` console, I can't reach the admin panel. When I navigate to `http://localhost:4848`, first there's a page saying "The Admin Console is starting. Please wait.", then it tries to redirect to a page having title "Login", but it loads, loads, loads forever. My CPU usage reaches 100% and nothing happens until I stop the server. I tried Glassfish v3.1, v3.1.2 and also the freshest v4.0, without any modification. About a year ago, v3.1 worked for me; I have no idea what could happen. The server log says Glassfish can't find image files. I uploaded the server log here: http://notepad.cc/share/LvaZvH23sF I read somewhere that renaming the `console-updatecenter-plugin.jar`, and the `NO_NETWORK=true` option can solve similar problems, but these couldn't help for me. I use JDK 7, and I'm on Windows 7 if it matters. (edit) Summarizing what happened, from my past comments: - The admin panel was unreachable in Google Chrome and Internet Exlorer. - I managed to reach the admin panel in Firefox, and even in Chrome's incognito mode, but the cause was not AdBlock. - Chrome dev console complained about a 404 error. - After a while, I was able to reach the admin panel in Chrome, in normal mode too, so from that point I couldn't reproduce the problem.
