Payara DataSource not being injected - liquibase

Question

I'm using Payara 5.184 and Java 1.8.241 on Linux (Ubuntu 19.10). I'm also using Liquibase as my database schema change management. A field named myDataSource is being injected as follows:
#Resource(mappedName = "java:global/ds")
private DataSource myDataSource;
When the method createDataSource() from Liquibase is invoked I noticed that the variable myDataSource is null, what makes me understand that the resource is not being properly injected. This error seems to happen only on Linux, as my other colleagues that run Windows did not have any problems so far. We're using exactly the same versions of Payara/Java. Is there any specific step that needs to be done on Linux? Here it is the stacktrace found on Payara logs.

EDIT: Added stacktrace
EDIT 2: Problem solved! It ended up being something not related with Liquibase at all. The queue size of the PayaraExecutorService was too small, which leads me to think that some tasks submissions were rejected. Apparently this is a known issue of Payara 5.184, and a related issue had already been opened on Github (https://github.com/payara/Payara/issues/3495). Once I increased the size of the queue to a large number everything started working as expected.

I think you need to use lookup to inject the resource.
