asadmin undeploy need conenction to running server...

So the question is - how to undeploy from off-line Glassfish server.

Answer 1

1. delete directory domains/$YOUR_DOMAIN/applications/$YOUR_APPLICATION (thanks, chris_l)
2. remove all data regarding $YOUR_APPLICATION from domains/$YOUR_DOMAIN/config/domain.xml (usually there are two records - one in domain>applications>web-module and one in domain>servers>server>application-ref)

Answer 2

Have you tried simply deleting the application's directory domains/$YOUR_DOMAIN/applications/$YOUR_APPLICATION? Make a backup first!
