在Glassfish 3上部署JSF App

Question

I have developed a JSF apllication using Netbeans and Glassfish 3.0.1. Now on another machine (Server) I installed glassfish 3.0.1 and deployed the application with default settings except I created the Pool before deployment. But when I launch the application it ends up with this error message:

An Error Occurred:
An error occurred performing resource injection on managed bean index

and this is the stacktrace:

Answer 1

This has nothing to do with JSF. Your datasource is missing. Makes sure you have declared the jdbc/Gates datasource.

Answer 2

Bozho's assertion is correct. You need to register the jdbc resource and the jdbc connection pool on any server instance where you attempt to deploy this war file.

NetBeans does provide some assistance for this though, which is worth pointing out.

You may find a file in PROJECT_ROOT/setup named sun-resources.xml or glassfish-resources.xml. This depends on how you created some of the content of your app...

This file is formated to be input to the GlassFish Server's asadmin subcommand add-resources .
