Environment:
I'm getting this error with a new Glassfish 4.1 default server, just by unziping de in to a folder.
I've tried blank password, admin and admin admin, that they could be the default passwords.
Otherwise, when I directly start the server with startserv file from the folder, it starts with no problem.
What could it be?
The default glassfish password after unzipping the file glassfish-4.1.zip or java_ee_sdk-7u1-web.zip, it seems to be blank. But it is a problem with glassfish plugin in Eclipse that it doesn't work with blank password.
The solution, it worked for me, it was to change password through the command asadmin. The file can be found in yourdirectory\glassfish4\glassfish\bin, and one it is executed change the password.
asadmin> change-admin-password
and follow the steps. You'll be prompt for your old password, that in this case was blank.
