I am running into a bug which from googling may be fixed in a newer hibernate or ejb3 release, but I can't be sure -- I can't tell from the jboss-seam-1.2.1-GA.zip file just what versions of various jars are bundled. The Seam 2.0-BETA distribution does not appear to be any better documented. Before te next release, please update the lib/readme.txt to include details of each jar file's version and/or change their filenames (e.g., from hibernate-all.jar to hibernate-all.x.y.z.jar) so we can know what versions we're using. If I'm just blind and not looking in the right place, my apologies, and please just point me to the docs. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4071782#...
