Problems retrieving EnityManagerFactory in an stateless EJB Bean - jpa

Question

I'm having difficulties to persist UserEntitys on my JavaDB from an ejb Project. I tried a couple of solutions from various google searches but non seem to help me.
I'm using GlassFish 4 and the JavaDB which comes with it.
This is my Statlessbean which needs the EntityManager
It should be injected by the container through #PersistenceContext as far as I understand.
#Stateless
public class UserManagementBean implements UserManagementLocal, UserManagementRemote {
#PersistenceContext(unitName = "ChatDB")
private EntityManager entityManager;
#EJB
private ChatManagementLocal chatManagement;
#EJB
private StatisticManagementLocal statisticManagement;
//...
#Override
public void login(String username, String password) throws Exception {
//...
}
#Override
public void logout(String username) {
//...
}
#Override
public void registerUser(String username, String password) throws Exception {
TypedQuery<UserEntity> query = entityManager.createNamedQuery("UserEntity.singleUser", UserEntity.class);
query.setParameter("username", username);
UserEntity foundUser;
try {
foundUser = query.getSingleResult();
} catch (NoResultException e) {
foundUser = new UserEntity();
foundUser.setLoggedIn(false);
foundUser.setUsername(username);
foundUser.setPassword(generateHash(password));
entityManager.persist(foundUser);
chatManagement.sendRegisterMessage(username);
}
throw new Exception("Der Benutzername ist bereits vergeben.");
}
public String generateHash(String password { ... }
}

At this point I have no idea on how to start on this issue, what have I missed? What should I check? What further details do you need?

This:
project-ejb
--META-INF
----persistance.xml
looks suspicious.
You appear to have mis-spelt "persistence.xml".
