Unfortunately I cannot provide the ear or rar. The stack trace is as follows:

And here's the glassfish source code where it is failing. The problem is pusReferencedFromBundle is null which means the call to bundle.findReferencedPUs() is returning null. Well it turns out that the bundle is an instance of ConnectorDescriptor which doesn't implement the method so the one in the base class BundleDescriptor is called which simple asserts false and returns null. The comments in the code say it's done this way on purpose because it doesn't expect to get called....
[code]
/**
* EMFs for refered pus are created and stored in JPAApplication instance.
* The JPAApplication instance is stored in given DeploymentContext to be retrieved by load
*/
@Override public boolean prepare(DeploymentContext context) {
boolean prepared = super.prepare(context);
if(prepared) {
Application application = context.getModuleMetaData(Application.class);
Set<BundleDescriptor> bundles = application.getBundleDescriptors();
// Iterate through all the bundles for the app and collect pu references in referencedPus
List<PersistenceUnitDescriptor> referencedPus = new ArrayList<PersistenceUnitDescriptor>();
for (BundleDescriptor bundle : bundles) {
Collection<? extends PersistenceUnitDescriptor> pusReferencedFromBundle = bundle.findReferencedPUs();
for(PersistenceUnitDescriptor pud : pusReferencedFromBundle) { /* <------------ NullPointerException */
referencedPus.add(pud);
}
}
[/code]
