If your server machine is behind a proxy server you have to set some JAVA_OPTS from the glassfish admin console:

-Dhttp.proxyHost=yourproxyserver
-Dhttp.proxyPort=yourproxyport

restart glassfish

this solved the same problem for us.

Hello,
My name is Robin Monteiro.i am trying to deploy Alfresco( Alfresco-community-3-4.a)on a oracle glassfish server 3.1.1 which has liferay already deployed on it, the operating system i am using is Sles Sp1 64bit.
Initially by manual deploying .war file which works for Liferay was not working for Alfresco so i followed exactly as said on the website:

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_on_Glassfish
by using the glassfish GUI i was able to deploy alfresco it showed in the deployed applications on Glassfish but when i try to launch in the browser with the url

http://localhost:8080/alfresco
i am getting the following error

this server was behind the proxy server so as mentioned in the previous post i changed the proxy in the glassfish GUI and i was able to see the web-page of alfresco at (http://localhost:8080/alfresco)
but on the production server the internet connection is absent - the one on which i want this applications to be running
so i tried removing the proxy(thinking that glassfish or and alfresco might have downloaded the files required by it so it can be tried offline) later restarted the glassfish and the same error was coming..now how does it works with the internet connection, which files is it taking from the internet which when offline dont work.
