So it looks like different or wrong loginc in JBoss, the code itself states it has some problems, and it looks targeted at EJB 3.x, it is not a separate code for 2.x daniel -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/728546#728546] Start a new discussion in EJB3 at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
