hm, i might be far off, but if i remember correctly tomcat doesnt work well with annotations (dont sue me if im wrong, its early in the morning). could you try to deploy the code in jboss and not tomcat and see how it works? since it works when you test is outside tomcat i believe that its no jbossaop bug, but rather a container/deploy bug... (but again, its early :) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3991202#...
