Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V7.0 with EJB 3.0 beans via * * annotations in classes outside of the EJB * * JAR file that contain the @Remote * * annotation with no @Local annotation * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A NullPointerException can occur when * * an application contains an EJB class * * that resides outside of the EJB JAR * * file. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** If an EJB class resides outside of the EJB JAR file and that class file contains the @Remote annotation but does not contain the @Local annotation as well, a NullPointerException may occur during Application startup that will prevent the application from starting.
Problem conclusion
The EJBContainer code has been fixed to tolerate the above scenario. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 7.0.0.13. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
