According to the GF Administration Guide:

For a valid JVM installation, locations are checked in the following order: a. domain.xml (java-home inside java-config) b. asenv.conf (setting AS_JAVA="path to java home")

I had to add both these settings to make it work. Otherwise 'asadmin stop-domain domain1' wouldn't work. I guess that GF uses a. and asadmin uses b.

(On Windows: b. asenv.bat)

Adding the actual content from dbf s link in order to keep the solution within stackoverflow      It turns out that when I first installed Glassfish on my Windows   system I had JDK 6 installed  and recently I had to downgrade to JDK 5   to compile some code for another project       Apparently when Glassfish is installed it hard-codes its reference to   your JDK location  so to fix this problem I ended up having to edit a   file named asenv bat  In short  I edited this file    C  glassfish config asenv bat       and I commented out the reference to JDK 6 and added a new reference   to JDK 5  like this    REM set AS JAVA C  Program Files Java jdk1 6 0 04 jre    set AS JAVA C  Program Files Java jdk1 5 0 16   Although the path doesn t appear to be case sensitive  I ve spent hours debugging an issue around JMS Destination object not found due to my replacement path s case being incorrect
