Java, JPA, Glassfish, Invalid resource : jdbc/__default__pm

I use Glassfish 3.1.2.2 (build 5), JPA, EclipseLink, MySQL

I created MySQL pool via Glassfish admin panel. Ping to MySQL from GF admin panel is ok.

I created app with persistence.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" version="2.0">
<persistence-unit name="myUnit">
    <provider>org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider</provider>
    <properties>
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/myDBName"/>
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="root"/>
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.password" value="myPass"/>
        <property name="javax.persistence.ddl-generation" value="drop-and-create-tables"/>
    </properties>
</persistence-unit>

I tried to deploy it and got the error:

Invalid resource : jdbc/__default__pm

java.lang.RuntimeException: Invalid resource : jdbc/__default__pm

Stacktrace in GF log is huge. Started by

Does anyone have ideas what happened and what to do?

If you have only created a MySQL connection pool, you must also create a JDBC resource. This can be created from the context menu above the one you used to create the connection pool.

Example Glassfish jdbc resource setup

In my Glassfish, my JDBC resource, jdbc/__default is using the connection pool mysql_lemon.
