Error description

  • Two EJB applications are deployed onto WebSphere Application
    Server v7.0.0.17.
    
    In EAR1 there is one Stateless EJB with a Remote Interface and
    no Bindings File (AutoLink Feature of WebSphere Application
    Server is used)
    
    In EAR2 there is another Stateless EJB which references the
    first one using @EJB (Dependency Injection) and an EJB Bindings
    file.
    
    If the code of the second EJB contains also the injection:
    
       @Resource
       private EJBContext context;
    
    
    then the following warning appears in the SystemOut.log when the
    second EAR is deployed:
    
    
    [22-7-11 17:44:17:215 CEST] 0000000b serialization W
    EjbRefBindingImpl(anon) eResolveProxy No matching ref for name [
    Bean1Remote ]
    
    
    If that injection of the EJBContext is absent, then the warning
    does not appear.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
    *                  Server V7.0 deploying J2EE version 5        *
    *                  applications with an EJB that contains      *
    *                  both @Resource and @EJB annotations         *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a deployed application contains    *
    *                      both @Resource and @EJB annotations,    *
    *                      an error message can occur during       *
    *                      application start.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    During application installation, an entry is created in the
    bindings file for the EJB reference denoted by the @EJB
    annotation. While starting the application, the @Resource
    annotaion is processed before the @EJB annotation. This
    processing requires that the bindings file be loaded. During
    the loading of the bindings file, the EJB references in it are
    resolved by finding the matching EJBs. Since the @EJB
    annotations have not yet been processed, there is no matching
    EJB reference found and the following warning message is
    displayed.
    22-7-11 17:44:17:215 CEST] 0000000b serialization W
    EjbRefBindingImpl(anon) eResolveProxy No matching ref for name
    [
    Bean Name ]
    

Problem conclusion

  • No workaround exists. Annotation processing has been changed so
    that the @EJB annotations are processed before the @Resource
    annotations.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.21.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
