Anyone experience PCI Compliance scan create errors in application server?

I'm running GlassFish 3.1.2 behind Apache 2.4.10 web server and mod_jk on CentOS 6 Linux server. I've observed PCI Compliance scans consistently create errors in the GlassFish server.log file, which cause my web app running in GlassFish to become unavailable (file not found). Basically, the web app dies, but the domain continues to run, although it continuously generates errors from that point forward.
Could anyone confirm this is known behavior? If so, are there any known workarounds?
Or, is the only solution to bring my application down for the 1-2 days it takes to run the PCI Compliance scan?
Here are typical errors/warning I see when running such scans (these from GlassFish's server.log file):

Broker Already Created JMS

I am trying to deploy my application to a Glassfish 3.2 server. When I do, I get the following messages in my logs:

Does anyone have insight on how such a situation could be created? How is it possible that 2 brokers could be created? Google is a bit light on people reporting this issue. Not really sure where to begin.
I am using ActiveMQ, so when it starts talking about an Aborting:Exception starting EMBEDDED in the exception, that is what concerns me.

The solution is simple: Remove the glassfish/domains/domain1/imq/instances/imqbroker/lock file and restart the server.
http://www.adam-bien.com/roller/abien/entry/if_your_glassfish_v2_1

Seems like you are running the Glassfish embedded broker (which is named imqbroker), but want to run the ActiveMQ resource adapter.
I remember, that we had a similar stacktrace when trying to get ActiveMQ running in Glassfish 4.
We got most informative help from this post, but for ActiveMQ in Glassfish 3 there are probably other posts more helpful.
Very important is in any case to set the correct resource adapter.

Getting below error when deploying JPA application

Can anyone suggest what is the root cause of this error. Iam getting below error while deploying the JPA application on glassfish. it dont have any Compile issues. Did i missed any jars.
Actually i have two projects one is Dynamic Web Project and other is EJB project
I add the EJB project reference in Deployment Assembly of Webproject. And deploying the webproject in server.

From the doc:
Thrown when an application tries to call an abstract method. Normally,
this error is caught by the compiler; this error can only occur at run
time if the definition of some class has incompatibly changed since
the currently executing method was last compiled.
I suspect you have a mismatch between the version of the jar you compiled with, and the jar you deployed with.

Glassfish Error when deploying WAR - Error occurred during deployment: Exception while preparing the app : Invalid resource :

I'm trying to deploy a WAR file called "VodfoneContractsDB.war". Its a simple web service created using Netbean's "RESTful Web Service from Database" wizard.
"Vodafone" is the name of my database connection.
I get the following error message:
Error occurred during deployment: Exception while preparing the app :
Invalid resource : Vodafone__pm. Please see server.log for more
details.
This is the log file:

Go to http:/localhost:4848
click on JDBC in the left navigation tree and expand it, choose JDBC Connection Pool
create your Connection Pool
create an JNDI name for your connection pool
retry to deploy your application.
Good luck
Patrick

The solution is making the resource an application-wide resource. Make sure you make the JNDI name prefixed with java:app/. And so, in your case, it'll be java:app/Vodafone. This should be done in both your persistence.xml file and in the WEB-INF/glassfish-resources.xml file also.
Find more details at here

Had the same issue. I put a jdbc/ in front of the jta-data-source value in the persistence.xml and it resolved the issue. Hopefully this helps someone.

Try this suggestion.
http://blog.pinateknoloji.com/glassfishapplication-scoped-resources
It works for me. You need to define your datasource in glassfish-resources.xml and put this file in your WEB-INF.
Remember to prepend your datasource with java:app/ so it reads java:app/Vodafone.
and use this value in your persistence.xml java:app/Vodafone

This is my fault cases met.
Here, I make the steps to create JNDI glassfish handmade crafts for MySQL connections.
You do the same with your database.
Based on glassfish-resources.xml file in NetBean do you configure JNDI property to suit accordingly

Is your glassfish running the same java version as your project? I had this problem when running glassfish on 1.6 but my project used 1.7. Check your java environment variables. Restart glassfish using the java version your project needs.

As mentioned in one of the answers, and posts:
For what it's worth, running a spring app from within eclipse can be a
very frustrating experience, especially when insisting on the latest
and greatest + maven. I found that the Maven dependencies are not
included in WEB-INF/lib unless the project is configured as shown in
the attached screenie. May it save you precious development time!
Happy Hacking!!! !
To add in Eclipse:
Go to Project Properties > Deployment Assembly > Add > Java Build Path Entries
Select Maven Dependencies

I use netbeans 7.3 + glassfish 3.1.2.2 + spring 3.2.2 + maven.
In process of upgrading my project to spring 3.2.2 there was similar error "...java.lang.IllegalStateException: ContainerBase.addChild.. blah-blah"
Historically my local .m2 folder is dirty of old spring 3.0.7, 3.1.1 and etc.
After some upgrades my project.war:WEB-INF/lib became full of spring 3.0.7, 3.1.1, 3.2.2 copies.
Solution in may case is:
ensure that all dependencies have appropriate versions (spring 3.2.2
based)
clean maven /.m2 (at least
repository/org/springframework)
clean project or remove target build
folder.
look at project.war:WEB-INF/lib - in my war all spring libraries are 3.2.2-versioned and glassfish deployment is Ok.

Maybe your libraries are not deployed to the server. Check inside glassfish if the libraries are deployed properly.
Look here also.

Just for people that might be running into this exception as well, this could be caused as well by a web service method that returns a type not supported by JAX-WS. In my case I had a method that returned HashMap, which is not supported by JAX-WS.
"JAX-WS delegates the mapping of Java programming language types to and from XML definitions to JAXB. Application developers don’t need to know the details of these mappings but should be aware that not every class in the Java language can be used as a method parameter or return type in JAX-WS."
next we have a list of Schema-to-Java mappings:
**XML Schema Type** **Java Data Type**
xsd:string java.lang.String
xsd:integer java.math.BigInteger
xsd:int int
xsd.long long
xsd:short short
xsd:decimal java.math.BigDecimal
xsd:float float
xsd:double double
xsd:boolean boolean
xsd:byte byte
xsd:QName javax.xml.namespace.QName
xsd:dateTime javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar
xsd:base64Binary byte[]
xsd:hexBinary byte[]
xsd:unsignedInt long
xsd:unsignedShort int
xsd:unsignedByte short
xsd:time javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar
xsd:date javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar
xsd:g javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar
xsd:anySimpleType java.lang.Object
xsd:anySimpleType java.lang.String
xsd:duration javax.xml.datatype.Duration
xsd:NOTATION javax.xml.namespace.QName
and Java-to-Schema mappings:
Java Class XML Data Type
java.lang.String xs:string
java.math.BigInteger xs:integer
java.math.BigDecimal xs:decimal
java.util.Calendar xs:dateTime
java.util.Date xs:dateTime
javax.xml.namespace.QName xs:QName
java.net.URI xs:string
javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar xs:anySimpleType
javax.xml.datatype.Duration xs:duration
java.lang.Object xs:anyType
java.awt.Image xs:base64Binary
javax.activation.DataHandler xs:base64Binary
javax.xml.transform.Source xs:base64Binary
java.util.UUID xs:string
if the return value on your web method is not listed above, you have to find a work around.
