"Cannot run program 'asadmin' " error shown while deploying to a Linux system

[Neeti]

Hi,

I used a SSH-Based Agent to connect to a Linux server (S1) for my application.

Then using 'Execute Command Line' option, I connected to S1 and deployed the application to GlassFish server running on another Linux server (S2).

The following error is seen:
deploy:
BUILD FAILED
deployment.xml:152: The following error occurred while executing this line:
api-build.xml:473: Execute failed: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "asadmin" (in directory "/opt/glassfish3/glassfish/glassfish/bin"): error=2, No such file or directory

I checked on S1 and 'asadmin' command and the folder structure are present.

I am able to ping S2 from S1.
Ran the ant task from S1 and it deployed successfully to S2.

I am also able to deploy from my local Windows machine to S2 using BuildMaster.

Am I missing something which I have to add for using SSH Agent?

Thanks

The path: /opt/glassfish3/glassfish/glassfish/bin strikes me as a bit odd, is there supposed to be 3 nested glassfish directories like that?

Hi

The GlassFish on the Linux machine has 3 nested 'glassfish' directories.

It works when:

1. deploy from local Windows to S2
2. from S1 to S2.

Both are using the same location for GlassFish.

Thanks

In addendum to the previous post:

2. S1 to S2 - uses the same location for GlassFish on S1 to run asadmin command in the ant task.

It should work exactly as if you were running the command yourself as the user configured in the SSH agent in the working directory supplied in the Execute Command Line Action. What BuildMaster version are you running? We have just released 4.0.6 as a beta, but it's very close to becoming our official 4.0 release if you're interested in upgrading to it. Could you try to fully qualify the path to "asadmin" in the build script?
