How can I start Glassfish server from Eclipse on OS X 10.10.3?
I was developing a website using Java EE in Eclipse and tested it locally with Glassfish, but after upgrading to OS X 10.10.3, the server started to timeout during startup. When trying to start from terminal Glassfish failed to start, but when used with sudo
it started successfully. After inspecting the website, I found that as of 10.10.3 Glassfish needs root privileges to run. Is there a way I can get Eclipse to start the server with root privileges, or work around the problem in another way?
EDIT: This is the log after using the first variant of Siddharth (the second when using Eclipse makes no difference):

EDIT: I answered Siddharth correctly as it helped me the most, however the issue was only fully resolved after the El Capitan update.

This is a known issue and has now been fixed ( see this ). If you would like to continue with the current version of Glassfish, perhaps you can consider the solution posted here .
By specifying the same solution below: -
It turns out that the Glassfish team made the assumption that they could use startctl bsexec in their kernel / admin / launcher / src / home / java / com / sun / enterprise / admin / launcher / gflauncher.java file.
This subcommand now requires root privileges.
Someone posted a patch to the trunk of Glassfish, but if you want to use Glassfish immediately, you can create this script somewhere like ~ / Bin / launchctl.
#!/bin/bash # A little hack to wrap launchctl in order to # successfully start Glassfish on Yosemite 10.10.3+ if [[ ${1} == "bsexec" ]]; then nohup ${@:3} else /bin/launchctl ${@} fi
Remember 'chmod 755 ~ / bin / launchctl for it to execute.
Also remember that your ~ / .profile or ~ / .bash_profile should have something like this:
export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
The idea here is that this script is a wrapper around launchctll. As a user in Yosemite 10.10.3, you cannot start bsexec, but you might want to use launchctll for other things.

I had the same problem with the eclipse luna Glassfish tools that I installed from the Eclipse MarketPlace under OSX 10.9.
I came across the post below on Stack Overflow and I think after the root access issue is resolved in 10.10, I believe the suggested solution there should work for your case as well as it did for me.
Don't forget to uninstall the Glassfish tools you installed earlier from the Marketplace!
