Deploying a Web application from IntelliJ on GlassFish works fine. But
re-deploying always gives the following error:

[#|2008-07-09T12:15:56.499-0700|WARNING|sun-appserver9.1|javax.enterprise.system.tools.admin|_ThreadID=18;_ThreadName=httpWorkerThread-4848-1;_RequestID=0d06f54e-b551-45e6-be37-4ec7b65a9136;|ADM1082:Creating

If the application is explicitly undeployed and deployed, then
everything works.

Any clues before I file an issue in IntelliJ's JIRA ?
