I finally figured out the jee5 example on Websphere. This uses EJB3 with EJB transactions plus all the other stuff. This was an amazing struggle, and I will be writing up exactly what is needed to get the example going in the next couple of days. Feel free to ask questions here if you have any. I will also post when I have checked in the chapter. -Jay View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4122655#...
