How to connect MySQL database with JSF and Primefaces in Netbeans?

I'm building a Java Web project with JSF 2.2 and Primefaces 4 using Netbeans IDE 8.
I'm trying to connect a database that I made in MySQL with my netbeans project.
The problem is that when i create a new project and make an entity class from database and choose jdbc/sample and make JSF pages from those entity classes the program runs ok BUT when I choose a new connection (MySQL) and choose my database with my tables and make JSF pages from entity class, the project doesnt run.
The database is visible in netbeans it's also visible in phpmyadmin in wamp. I'm thinking it has to do something with glassfish resources.xml file that
I need to configure something there or maybe not.
The short version of my problem:

How do I use Entity Framework with MySQL Connector noinstall version?

Does anyone know any way to have the Entity Framework working with mysql connector 6.3/6.4 no install version? I can add the dll-s to my project, but I can't add the connection to the Entity framework because it doesn't see mysql.
The steps to get mySQL and entity framework working are available in this blog post
If you are trying to do it without have a database installed, I do not think that that is possible.
