[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Timer not starting from method with @Create annotation.

[maniappan]

I try to start a timer with one minute interval using @Asynchronous annotation. when I schedule this timer from within any method in my application it seems to work properly. However when I try to invoke it from a @Create annotated method during startup the timer is not getting set, I see this error in the log.

  | 2007-06-08 14:36:26,756 ERROR [org.jboss.ejb.txtimer.TimerImpl] Error invoking ejbTimeout: javax.ejb.EJBException: java.lang.NullPointerException:
  | 2007-06-08 14:36:26,756 DEBUG [org.jboss.ejb.txtimer.TimerImpl] Timer was not registered with Tx, resetting state: [id=4,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:service=EJB3,ear=myapp.ear,jar=jboss-seam.jar,name=Dispatcher],remaining=-1048568,periode=60000,in_timeout]

Here is the code snippet where I invoke the timer..

  | @Startup
  | @Entity
  | @Local
  | @Table(name="myapp_schedule")
  | @Stateful
  | @Scope(ScopeType.APPLICATION)
  | @Name("myappSchedule")
  | public class MyappSchedule
  |     implements Serializable, MyappScheduleInterface
  | {
  | -- Setters/Getters for all fields in the table..
  |     @Create
  |     public void startScheduler() {
  |         log.info("Entering create now to start the schdeuler");
  |         try{Thread t = new Thread();
  |         t.sleep(10000);}
  |         catch(Exception e){}
  |        	try {
  |        		MyappScheduleController ysh = (MyappScheduleController) Component.getInstance("myappScheduleHome");
  |        		ysh.saveAndSchedule();
  |        	} catch (Exception e) {
  |        		System.out.println("Got the exception while starting time "+e.toString());
  |        	}
  |     }
  | 
  |     @Destroy @Remove
  |     public void dummy() {}
  | }
  | 

When I invoke the saveAndSchedule() from any other method from application it works properly, not in the case above..
Any ideas on where could be the issue?
