Hi all,

I think I followed the intruction to declare a JNDI datasource on Glassfish using the standard method with the asadmin
command inside the installed gem, just like explained on that Sun blog:
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/arungupta/archive/2007/09/totd_9_using_jd.html

I'm pretty sure those were created as I got the confirmation messages and also because when trying again Glassfish said
those stuff already existed.

Then I referenced my JNDI datasource in my Rails application, again, like explained with:
  adapter: jdbc
  jndi: jdbc/jndi_rails
  driver: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
in my database.yml

Still, Glassfish failed to init the JNDI database connection and I got that error at startup:

Does JNDI works in the Glassfish gem? If not please consider this would be appreciated for real production usage. Best
