Ant Deploy War to Glassfish 3 server fails at GWT

Question

I'm developing a system that deploys the applications which is selected from GWT interface. I've wrote build.xml accordingly;

<target
    name="deploywar"
    description="Varolan WAR dosyasını yayınlar." >
    <echo level="info" >
        Proje sunucuda yayinlaniyor... 
    </echo>
    <exec
        executable="cmd"
        failonerror="true" >
        <arg value="/c" />
        <arg value="D:/enlil/glassfish3/bin/asadmin --passwordfile D:/stajyer/password.txt deploy --contextroot /GlassfishDeployment dist/MobilHis.war" />
    </exec>
</target>

and call this target from Java;

buildfile = new java.io.File("build.xml");
p = new Project();
p.setUserProperty("ant.file", buildfile.getAbsolutePath());
p.init();
helper = ProjectHelper.getProjectHelper();
p.addReference("ant.projectHelper", helper);
helper.parse(p, buildfile);
p.executeTarget("deploywar");

When I call this process from test(main) class, I meant not from a web interface, it does the deployment process. But when I call this method from the web interface via RPC callback, I got this error.

exec returned: 1
D:\stajyer\Glassfish Deployment\war\build.xml:83: exec returned: 1

I can't find where the problem is. Thanks for help.

Answer 1

Try following.

<exec executable="D:/enlil/glassfish3/bin/asadmin" failonerror="true">
    <arg value="--passwordfile"/>
    <arg value="D:/stajyer/password.txt"/>
    <arg value="deploy"/>
    <arg value="--contextroot"/>
    <arg value="/GlassfishDeployment"/>
    <arg value="dist/MobilHis.war"/>
</exec>

Keep arguments in separate <arg/> elements.

This is probably because glassfish not being able to open up the command prompt.

Answer 2

I figured out that in my project folder there are 2 build.xml files and my class references the other one, I don't know why I have two of them, but when I pasted my codes into other build.xml all problems have fixed up.
