Unfortunately I am not an expert for the MySQL product and do not know
what "=*" means, so I can just guess: Either MySQL or TopLink's MySQL
support is buggy. The JPA query itself is correct. Actually there is no
need for the x IS NOT NULL anymore, so you can just remove it and it
should work.
Have Fun
