I appreciate your efforts in trying the sample application. How are you determining that the BMP isn't deployed? I see the CustomerApplication.ear and Customer.jar deployed in the J2EE section of the JMX Console output. I also see the persistence unit registered in the JNDI output. I previously developed a session bean and it was deployed and registered in JNDI successfully. Any other ideas?
