Glassfish can not find JNDI DataSource while deploying

Question

I am trying to deploy an ear in glassfish, but it fails to depoly it complaining that it can't find the DataSource written in the persistence.xml

In persistence.xml DataSource is configured as java:app/jdbc/mysqlDS but it is looking for java:app/jdbc/mysqlDS__pm . This is weird. Any idea?

EDIT I have created following dtasources

• mysqlDS
• mysqlDS__pm

EDIT END

Here are some detail:

• ear application
• uses maven
• application is deployed from eclipse

here goes the persistence.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="2.0"
  xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd">
  <persistence-unit name="test_pu" transaction-type="JTA">
    <jta-data-source>java:app/jdbc/mysqlDS</jta-data-source>
    <!--
       tried with this too
       <jta-data-source>java:app/jdbc/mysqlDS__pm</jta-data-source>
    -->
  </persistence-unit>
</persistence>

You need to modify the jta-data-source tag in persistence.xml in order to match the dataSource JNDI name, without prefixes:

<jta-data-source>mysqlDS</jta-data-source>
