Well, interestingly, in IDEA, there is a checkbox in the deployment
configuration labeled "Upload with GlassFish" which may be intended to
toggle the --upload option on and off when deploying. Whether the
checkbox is selected or not, the same problem occurs for me. The lack
of visibility into exactly what IDEA is doing is a little
frustrating... the JEE bits of IDEA are not opensource. I have my
workaround for now, and was planning to contact Jetbrains and
officially document the problem I'm having. I was assuming that they
would simply say that 4.1 is not officially supported yet. It's quite
possible that the deployment from IDEA problem is not the same problem
as the deployment with --upload problem... but the similarity in the
error messages makes me think that they might be related.

Maybe I should file a bug in Jira against glassfish 4.1 release with
explicit instructions and a deployable file to show that --upload does
not work?

Then file a separate issue with Jetbrains for the deployment problem
from within the IDE?

Thanks for all the help!
