Persistence Error on Glassfish 3.1.2 Server - SEVERE: Exception [EclipseLink-28018]SEVERE: Exception [EclipseLink-28018]

[greatkalu]

Hi,

I'm getting the following error when deploying my EAR/EJB project on Glassfish.

I downloaded and installed the latest Netbeans version with the Glassfish Server. I am running a Postgres 8.4 database and have checked the connections both on Netbeans and Glassfish. I have generated Entities from the database tables, and upon adding the EntityManager to a Session, get this error only when deploying the Project on Glassfish. It builds without any errors.

Glassfish log:

I'm sorry Sergey, I don't quite follow.

Bump.

Anyone know why this error is happening? Stumped as to how to resolve this. Is something missing in my glassfish installation? I have the jdbc driver working perfectly. Perhaps it I have to add an EclipseLink jar file to my list of sources on glassfish?
