Configure Lightrun with Eclipse Glassfish¶

Glassfish is an open source Java application server by Oracle. The domain.xml file contains most of the Oracle GlassFish Server configurations.

To start using Lightrun with a Glassfish server, first add the agent path as a JVM option to the Glassfish java-config block as in this example from lines 165-169 to the domain.xml file, or by any of the other options described below.

When adding the option, insert the relevant values for the parameters as follows:

• install_dir is the path where the agent is saved
• glassfish-domain-path is the path to the glassfish project
• app-name is the name of the Glassfish application

To configure Lightrun with Glassfish¶

You can add the agent path option with any of these options described here.

• from the Glassfish Admin panel

  asadmin create-jvm-options -agentpath:<install_dir>/agent/lightrun_agent.so=--lightrun_extra_class_path=<glassfish-domain-path>/applications/<app-name>/WEB-INF/classes/
  

• manually from the Glassfish domain.xml file

  1. Copy the agent path option.

  -agentpath:<install_dir>/agent/lightrun_agent.so=--lightrun_extra_class_path=<glassfish-domain-path>/applications/<app-name>/WEB-INF/classes/
