Okay. I found the problem. I have manually created the bookstore.jar without adding the src/META-INF/persistence.xml

The easiest way is using Ant to create the jar files like:
1. Open the command prompt
2. go to glassfishv3\glassfish\docs\javaee-tutorial\examples\web\bookstore1>
3. Enter "ant"
4. copy the bookstore.jar to the eclipse project "bookstore1" from glassfishv3\glassfish\docs\javaee-tutorial\examples\web\bookstore\dist
5. Start Glassfish in Eclipse
6. Deploy bookstore1
7. Open the link http://localhost:8080/bookstore1/bookstore

Now I get this:
Exception [EclipseLink-4002] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.0.0.v20090424-r4050): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.DatabaseException
Internal Exception: java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: Table/View 'WEB_BOOKSTORE_BOOKS' does not exist.
Error Code: -1
Call: SELECT BOOKID, ONSALE, TITLE, PRICE, INVENTORY, DESCRIPTION, CALENDAR_YEAR, SURNAME, FIRSTNAME FROM WEB_BOOKSTORE_BOOKS WHERE (BOOKID = ?)
        bind => [203]
Query: ReadObjectQuery(referenceClass=Book sql="SELECT BOOKID, ONSALE, TITLE, PRICE, INVENTORY, DESCRIPTION, CALENDAR_YEAR, SURNAME, FIRSTNAME FROM WEB_BOOKSTORE_BOOKS WHERE (BOOKID = ?)")

Before I have properly started "ant create-tables" and all 181 SQLs (tutorial.sql copied from the JEE5 since in JEE6 it is incomplete) has been executed.

In the post http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=356461&tstart=0
you have mentioned:
"...to change the persistence.xml to set the EclipseLink property:
"eclipselink.ddl-generation" either to "drop-and-create-tables" or to
"create-tables".

If the steps included loading DDL, you missed that step.

The latest V3 builds have support for automatic table creation requested via
asadmin deploy command options."

So this is not necessary to change anymore or should I change the persitence.xml?
