Download
========

Download ``glassfish-installer-v2-b58g.jar`` from
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/downloads/.

Install
=======

Make sure you have stopped any other web containers which use port 8080 e.g.
Tomcat, Continuum.

::

  java -Xmx256m -jar glassfish-installer-v2-b58g.jar -console

**Note**:

- The ``jar`` file will extract the files into a ``glassfish`` folder inside
  your current folder.
- Add the ``-console`` parameter if you are installing in a headless
  environment.
- Be careful if you rename the ``glassfish`` folder.  Some of the batch files,
  ``bin/asadmin.bat** and ``config/asenv.bat`` (among others) build an absolute
  path to the server installation.
