在Glassfish部署期间无法找到捆绑资源

Question

During remote deployment of an EAR application on Glassfish 4.1.2 with no AppClient, I get the following RuntimeException caused by a org.glassfish.deployment.common.DeploymentException:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't find resource for bundle
java.util.PropertyResourceBundle, key
enterprise.deployment.appclient.noManifest

How do I fix Glassfish to display the correct error message so I can determine which library is causing the deployment error? I take it one of the dependency JARs is missing a manifest file, but GF can't construct the appropriate error message because the property resource bundle does not exist. Is this a bug in GF?

I also found this decode from theAppClientDeployerHelper.java class:

ACC007 The app client {0,choice,0#file|1#directory} {1} does not contain a manifest; the app client container cannot process it. Embedded programs should pass URIs with scheme "jar:" for JAR files and scheme "file:" for directories. Cause: The file might not be a valid app client JAR or undeployed EAR. It might be another kind of file or have become corrupted. Action: Make sure to specify a valid app client JAR file or an EAR which contains at least one app client.

Answer 1

Altering the EAR plugin in Maven which auto generated the application.xml used by Glassfish for application deployment seemed to fix this problem. The application would actually deploy without errors in directory format using Eclipse, however remote deployment was the problem. Fixed by the following code.

<artifactId>maven-ear-plugin</artifactId>
    <configuration>
      <includeLibInApplicationXml>false</includeLibInApplicationXml>
