Hi Cam,

Thanks for your suggestions on the matter.

As I mentioned in my previous response, I suspect it is not correctly 
configured due to a bug in the glassfish eclipse plugin: 
https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=40

The good news is that it's already been fixed, but not pushed out in a 
release yet.  Meanwhile, the relevant jars (even from the glassfish 
installation) can be added as external jars to the project's build path.
