I just now fired up a new EAR app in Eclipse Indigo running Glassfish
3.1; two projects, a WAR, and a EJB project with the JPA facet. I am
using PostgreSQL 9.0, and set up a datasourec against that in the
Glassfish admin console. The persistence.xml was extremely simple:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="2.0"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd">
<persistence-unit name="StateMachinesServices
  <provider>org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider</provider
  <jta-data-source>jdbc/PostgreSQLPool</jta-data-source
  <class>org.ahs.sm.model.State</class>
  <exclude-unlisted-classes>true</exclude-unlisted-classes>
  <properties>
    <property name="eclipselink.ddl-generation" value="none"/>
    <property name="eclipselink.target-database" value="PostgreSQL"/
  </properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>

The single test entity is set up as

@Entity
public class State implements Serializable {
  private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

  @Id
  @SequenceGenerator(name = "STATE_ID_GEN",
    sequenceName="STATE_ID_SEQ", allocationSize=1)
  @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.SEQUENCE,
    generator = "STATE_ID_GEN")
  private Integer id;
  private String name;
  private String status;

  ...
}

The session bean I set up as

@Stateless
@LocalBean
public class CreateState {

  @PersistenceUnit
  EntityManagerFactory emf;
	
  public void createState() {
    EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();
    State state = new State();
    state.setName("state1");
    state.setStatus("OK");
    em.persist(state);
    em.close();
  }
}

This is simply called from a JSF managed bean method hit through a
h:commandButton. So essentially your setup.

I just now noticed something, though, which might well explain the
problem. I have a genuine unvarnished EJB (my CreateState session bean).
You on the other hand have something that looks like a hybrid: both
javax.ejb.Stateless and javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean annotations on it.
I have no idea what this combo will do. :-)

When I call my session bean from my JSF managed bean, I inject it with
@EJB. You're not doing that, so you have basically what looks like a
basic Java method call, and there's a good chance the annotations are
being ignored.

Side note: when I set this new project up tonight I started out with JDK
1.7. Bad move - VerifyErrors and what have you. I had to switch back to
JDK 1.6.
