--database parameter for persistence setup cause null error

On a newly created Seam Forge project, execute the following:

persistence setup --provider HIBERNATE --container JBOSS_AS7 --database MYSQL

And end up with the following (with 'set VERBOSE true' previously executed):

[ForgeTest] ForgeTest $ persistence setup --provider HIBERNATE --container JBOSS_AS7 --database MYSQL
**ERROR** [persistence setup] null

No difference if I specify JBOSS_AS6 as the container. The problem occurs when the --database argument is added. Even tried a fully qualified set of arguments:

persistence setup --provider HIBERNATE --container JBOSS_AS7 --database MYSQL5_INNODB --jndiDataSource jdbc/MusicDBDS --jdbcURL "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/examples" --jdbcUsername examples --jdbcPassword examples --named MusicDBPU

and no luck.
