I'm new to Glassfish and I already discovered that Glassfish 4.1.1 (and I guess 4.1) had a bug. I got around that after a google search and I updated to Glassfish 4.1.2. Now, I'm getting the following exception and stack trace when I deploy my application:
Severe: Exception while deploying the app [DHWear-1.0]
Severe: Exception during lifecycle processing

Severe: Exception while deploying the app [DHWear-1.0] : Failue while processing glassfish-resources.xml(s) in the archive -- E:\Program Files\glassfish4\glassfish\domains\randomlogic\applications\DHWear-1.0\DHWweb-1.0_war\WEB-INF\lib\DHWbean-1.0.jarMETA-INF\glassfish-resources.xml (The system cannot find the path specified)
This exception occurs whether I deploy using NetBeans 8.2 or I use the Glassfish web administration console.
This error is meaningless to me and the path it shows:
E:\Program Files\glassfish4\glassfish\domains\randomlogic\applications\DHWear-1.0\DHWweb-1.0_war\WEB-INF\lib\DHWbean-1.0.jarMETA-INF\glassfish-resources.xml
looks odd to me. This portion:
\DHWbean-1.0.jarMETA-INF\
appears as if something was parsed incorrectly. It seems to me it should be:
\DHWbean-1.0.jar\META-INF\
Looking into the archive, I see that the path
\DHWear-1.0\DHWweb-1.0_war\WEB-INF\lib\DHWbean-1.0.jar\META-INF\glassfish-resources.xml
does exist.
Regardless, has anyone come across this, and if so how do I fix it?
UPDATE
I found that deploying the WAR file did not show this error and revealed that NetBeans was not configuring the Glassfish JDBC resources at all (apparently an open bug - funny that it works with a Tomcat server). I added the resources manually to the server to fix that problem, but the EAR still would not work.
I removed the glassfish-resources.xmlfiles from my three persistent unit modules and combined the contents into one glassfish-resources.xml file with application scope. This solved the problem with the EAR, but now when I deploy either the EAR or WAR, I am getting:
Severe: Exception while preparing the app

I have no clue as to why.
