GlassFish v3 Gem - 0.1.1 available

Posted by arungupta on February 14, 2008 at 6:51 AM PST

Pramod released an updated version 0.1.1 of the JRuby GlassFish v3 gem.

What's New ? - Mainly alignment with Rails convention

The name of the gem is changed from "GlassFish" to "glassfish".
The default port number is 3000.
Applications are deployed at root context ("/"). So the default application is now deployed "http://localhost:3000/home/index" instead of "http://localhost:8080/temp/home/index".

And then there are some other improvements:

The number of concurrent requests can now be set using a command-line argument (instead of "-J-Djruby.runtime"). So 2 Rails instances can be created using the following command:

jruby -S glassfish_rails temp -n 2
Rails instances are created in parallel to improve the startup time of the gem.

How to install it ?

If you installed 0.1.0 version of the gem, then you need to uninstall using the following command:

bin/jruby -S gem uninstall GlassFish

Successfully uninstalled GlassFish-0.1.0-java

Remove executables and scripts for

'glassfish_rails, asadmin, asadmin.bat' in addition to the gem?

And then install the new gem using the following command:

JRuby limited openssl loaded. gem install jruby-openssl for full
support.

hi arun,

I tried the following

C:\jTools\jruby-1.1b1\bin>jruby -S gem install glassfish -p http://whqisa.ad.nike.com:8080
ERROR: While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
undefined method `[]=' for #

C:\jTools\jruby-1.1b1\bin>

Any ideas ?

Thank you,

hi arun,

it will be interesting to know some numbers about how well the application behaves if the number of concurrent requests is set to 50. How much RAM does it need ? What is the startup time ?

BTW, does this glassfish just have the bits needed for JDBC access and stuff like that ?

Thank you,

BR,

"jruby -S gem help install" shows the following option: -p, --[no-]http-proxy [URL] Use HTTP proxy for remote operations Try "jruby -S gem install glassfish -p http://proxyhost:proxyport" BTW, I installed inside corporate firewall as well. We have not done any performance benchmarks with v3 gem for now. Let us know if you run any tests.
