>             Project: JBoss Metadata
>          Issue Type: Bug
>      Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) 
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.1.GA
>         Environment: JBoss AS 5.1.0.GA

> The presence of a META-INF/ejb-jar.xml file that is not properly namespaced, for example...
> <ejb-jar>
> </ejb-jar>
> ...instead of...
> <ejb-jar version="3.0"
>     xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
>     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/ejb-jar_3_0.xsd">
> </ejb-jar>
> ...stops ALL of the annotation-based metadata processing. Every session bean in the JAR reports with the JBMETA-4 warning, and therefore none of them get registered with JNDI. This is much worse than simply ignoring the ejb-jar.xml altogether, as is arguably acceptable as it isn't namespaced.
> An un-namespaced ejb-jar.xml is not uncommon. Many examples, including this one from the JBoss documentation...
> http://docs.jboss.org/ejb3/app-server/reference/build/reference/en/html/partial_deployment_descriptors.html
> ...leave off the namespace, so for JBoss to fail without warning seems a little harsh. Leaving off the namespace worked fine in JBoss 4.2.3.GA.
