In case someone else runs into the same problem this is how I solved it.
In order for a fresh Guvnor installation to work against a pre-existing
repository you need to add the following files to the appserver config
directory (in the case of Glassfish /config/)
repository/repository/namespaces/ns_idx.properties
repository/repository/namespaces/ns_reg.properties
repository/repository/nodetypes/custom_nodetypes.xml
These files are generates the first time you deploy guvnor and let it create
a new repository.
If someone knows why these files needs to be present for Guvnor to
understand that it should use the existing repository instead of (trying to)
create a new one I would be very interested to hear. Especially since the
information in these files seem to be pretty static.
Best Regards
Mattias Avelin
