Thank you again.
I have stripped it down to the bare minimum of connection properties with the same result. Again, I can connect to the database from a main class using the driver and mysql connector. But when I try to access this via a connection pool in the glassfish application server, this is the result.
I have sent nearly 12 hours on this...in every combination. By the way the environment is:
Glassfish v2ur2-b04 also tried in V2.1 stable binary
MySQL Connector J mysql-connector-java-5.1.6-bin.jar
Toplink version Oracle TopLink Essentials - 2.0.1 (Build b04-fcs (04/11/2008))
