Deploying Afresco 2.1 on GlassFish v2

[amerigo5]

I successfully deployed Alfesco 2.1 rc1 on GlassFish v2 using PostgreSQL.  But when I go to http://localhost:8080/alfresco (http://localhost:8080/alfresco/faces/jsp/dashboards/container.jsp), I get a blank screen (with Alfresco Community logo and footer links).  I also don't get any error logs.

Anyone having the same behavior?

Thank you.

Yeah, I am. I think it's a mismatch between JavaServer Faces bundled with Alfresco and the one that ships with Glassfish. Search these forums for 'glassfish' to see what I mean.

Bummer, I really didn't want to have to use TC for this…

Hi
  I have tried to deploy Alfresco2.1 on Glassfish v2. it's deployed but i am getting only alfresco logo and top one line.
In log i am getting the following errors
ERROR [alfresco.smb.protocol] Failed to get local domain/workgroup name, using default of WORKGROUP
ERROR [alfresco.smb.protocol] (This may be due to firewall settings or incorrect <broadcast> setting)

How to Solve these Errors. I have searched alfresco forums but i did not get the proper information. Please help me to Solve this issue.

Thanks in Advance

I'm getting the same problem with Alfresco 3.1 and 3.2preview.
Has anybody figured out how to fix this yet?

There's a procedure here for v2:

did you set a workgroup? That doesn't look like a fatal error to me.

I tried that but it still only shows a blank screen (with Alfresco Community logo and footer links) when I go to
http://localhost:8080/alfresco which redirects to
http://localhost:8080/alfresco/faces/jsp/login.jsp or
http://localhost:8080/alfresco/faces/jsp/dashboards/container.jsp

there are no stacktraces in the log files, and none of the warnings seem related.
here is my alfresco.log:
