Hi Bhavani, thank you for your reply.
I've tried to use maven-embedded-glassfish-plugin version 3.1-SNAPSHOT. However, this did not work out so well. This is output I got from maven:

It seems like a bug in maven-embedded-glassfish-plugin.
Regarding version 3.0.1 - I can file the bug report, but it seems that Harald was right that I had a missing dependency on gf-client.jar...so should I still file it?
