Exporting Applications with Databases to Executable Jar in Netbeans

Question

I'm building a desktop application with an Apache Derby database. When I run the application from Netbeans, it works fine, but when I run the application's executable jar file, I get a "java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError" "Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Attempting to execute an operation on a closed EntityManager."

The jar file was created by right-clicking the project in Netbeans, and clicking "Clean and Build".

I've looked at the the following resources, but the information wasn't applicable:

This is my first time using Derby, so it's probably something simple that I'm missing.

It creates the main gui object for the program. In doing that, it makes several calls to the database. — Logan Grier, Dec 19 '17 at 21:41

As it turns out, I made a (very) silly mistake in my code. I closed the EntityManager that I made the query on in the line before I called getSingleResult() on my query. I'm not quite sure why the program worked when I ran it from Netbeans, but the problem is solved now.
