You open up a browser window and access console without issue.

What does it mean by access from NetBeans 7 ? Is this the same way you
access the console "before" creating the JDBC resource ?
I don't see how creating a JDBC resource will change the way you access
the console.

After running the enable-secure-admin, you should see that your http
request is redirected to https.
Do you see this happening in your browser ?
Is there any error logged in your server.log ? (found under
glassfish/domains/domain1/logs).
