Hi, All: Searching Google, JBoss docs, everywhere trying to find an answer. I am running JBoss 4.0.5.GA that was installed with the JEMS installer and the ejb3-cluster selection I created an EJB3 compliant bean and a persistence.xml and persistence unit. This is my first EJB3 bean. The problem is that now that I deploy my new ear file, the EJB 3 bean deploys but the previously valid EJB 2.x beans don't. They are now in the FAILED state as revealed by the jmx-console. Here is the printout of one of my EJB 2.1 bean console errors --- MBeans waiting for other MBeans --- ObjectName: jboss.j2ee:ear=benefficiencyEnterprise-6.1.ear,jar=benefficiency-business-tier-6.1.jar,name=DistributionCalendar,service=EJB3 State: FAILED Reason: java.lang.RuntimeException: An exception occurred initialising interceptors for class com.talavara.viper.business.session.ejb.DistributionCalendarSession.getEJBLocalHome How do I get my legacy EJB beans work now that I have added an EJB 3 bean? Thank you in advance for your help, John Curley jcurley(a)talavara.com View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4041507#...
