I tried to simplify this issue as most as it is possible. So here is my service bean: @Service public class RemoteTrafficManagerBean implements RemoteTrafficManager {       public void start() throws Exception {         System.out.println("Starting service bean");         clearStatistics();     }       public void create() throws Exception {         System.out.println("Creating service bean");     }       (... some other methods ...)       public void someBusinessMethod() {      (...)     } } Logs are otputed to the standard out to make sure that it is no logging issue. RemoteTrafficManager is injected into another session bean using @EJB annotation. Also, someBusinessMethod is called from this bean. I am sure that RemoteTrafficManagerBean was instantiated, because some additional logging is flushed into console from its business methods (they do not work appropriately because initialization has not been done). I 've put logging from all levels into file: msc@nitrogen:~> cat jboss\ service\ logs |grep 'Starting service bean' msc@nitrogen:~> cat jboss\ service\ logs |grep 'Creating service bean' But there is no entry about starting/creating RemoteTrafficManagerBean. I use JBoss 5.0.0 with HornetQ. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/588559#588559] Start a new discussion in Beginner's Corner at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
