Problem in Installation of Glassfish

[annamalai.gurusami]

Hi All.

I am trying to install Glassfish. I am following the instructions in the URL

https://glassfish.dev.java.net/downloads/v2ur2-b04.html

I downloaded the package glassfish-installer-v2ur2-b04-linux.jar. When the run the ant program I got the error that tools.jar is not found. What could be the problem? How to fix it? The complete error message is listed below.

Note that the java.home is correctly identified as /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.06

The problem was only JRE was installed. No JDK was installed. So I installed JDK using the command '$ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk'. Now it is working correctly. Thank you.
