Description
### Apache NetBeans version
Apache NetBeans 31
### What happened
There is bug fixed where NB won't recognize Glassfish 8 web profile.
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/9441
But now it can add a web profile (8.0.3 and 8.0.4)but it won't start at all.
Glassfish 8.0.4 full profile starts but then it stalls directly seemingly. It starts but it takes forever (only on MacOS).
On a Mac set env var AS_HOSTNAME as localhost and 8.0.4 starts direct. (Fix will be in 8.0.5)
Only the Glassfish full version 8.0.3 starts locally. The web profile configurations won't start at all.

Research direction
Reproduce the failure in Apache NetBeans 31 with GlassFish 8.0.3 and 8.0.4 web profiles on macOS Tahoe 26.6 using Temurin 21, comparing them with the working full-profile case. Check the startup output and configuration differences; done means the web profiles start successfully, without relying on the AS_HOSTNAME workaround.
