I am developing a stand-alone java application which uses eclipselink. It is all fine when I execute the app from eclipse IDE. But I've exported an executable JAR file, and since than I can not make eclipseLink work. I have found similar issue in the Eclipse community forum here, but yet not too handy:
Please help,
My exception is the following:

I think this line must be the key:
Internal Exception: Exception [EclipseLink-30004] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.0.2.v20100323-r6872): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.PersistenceUnitLoad ingExceptionException Description: An exception was thrown while processing persistence.xml from URL: rsrc:../
I have managed to solve it. I changed the way eclipse exports the jar file. If it extracts required libraries into the jar everything works great. Thank you anyway!
