I believe the Basic HTTP Server is just a publishing mechanism and
doesn't involve the starting and stopping an actual server. It assumes
you have a server like Apache HTTP set up externally that will serve up
the content found in the folder you publish to.
Choose Basic HTTP Preview as your server if you want an actual server.
I believe it uses the version of Jetty that is built into Eclipse as the
server.
Cheers,
Larry

Forgot to mention that while BASIC HTTP Preview gives you an actual
server, you get minimal ability to configure this server. For example,
it is hard coded to use port 8080. You would have to change the port on
the glassfish server to something else if you wanted to run it at the
same time as the HTTP Preview server.
