If you have installed Glassfish V3 and trying to load admin console, but after signing in, is it taking too much time to get to the main page ? Do you have server.log entry like this: admin console: initSessionAttributes() Cannot refresh Catalog : Connection timed out then its time to tweak some files. Here its how: 1. Update the %GLASSFISH_HOME/glassfish/domains/domain1/domain.xml -Dcom.sun.enterprise.tools.admingui.NO_NETWORK=true This will block up the News item, the registration item, etc 2. Remove update tool jar (Backup and remove this JAR) %GLASSFISH_HOME/glassfish/modules/console-updatecenter-plugin.jar Delete this dir: %GLASSFISH_HOME/glassfish/domains/domain1/osgi-cache %GLASSFISH_HOME/glassfish/domains/domain1/generated Now start the server (bin/asadmin start-domain) and you will see the admin console won't be hang up and take you directly to main page.
