[rules-users] "could not discover transaction status" with JBossAS 4.2.1-GA and Drools 4.0.4 BRMS

[Emilian Pascalau]

Based on the following http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1900 
this is SEAM bug and not a Drools one.
Also trying to use the guidelines from 
http://docs.jboss.com/seam/2.0.1.GA/reference/en/html_single/#d0e5837 
had no different results. 
For the moment I have not found a solution.

> Using the latest stable releases of JBoss AS and Drools BRMS seems to bring
> problems.
>
> 1. Install JBoss 4.2.1-GA
> 2. Drop in drools-jbrms.war
>
> I get this in the logs:
