The steps I followed :

• Delete $GLASSFISH_INSTALLATION_DIR\glassfish\domains$YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME\osgi-cache folder

• Delete all files starting with “org.eclipse.persistence” from $GLASSFISH_INSTALLATION_DIR\glassfish\modules
  In my glassfish instance i did the below 9 files
  org.eclipse.persistence.antlr.jar org.eclipse.persistence.asm.jar org.eclipse.persistence.core.jar org.eclipse.persistence.dbws.jar org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jar org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.jar org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.modelgen.processor.jar org.eclipse.persistence.moxy.jar org.eclipse.persistence.oracle.jar

• Download “EclipseLink 2.6.5 OSGi Bundles Zip” from http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/downloads/
  From the downloaded file copy all files starting with “org.eclipse.persistence” especially the above 9 files back to $GLASSFISH_INSTALLATION_DIR\glassfish\modules (source jar files are not required)
