When I try to load the resource bundle from a > Message Driven Bean it can't find the file. I'm no expert, but I'm asnwering because your question doesn't seem to have been answered for a day. One way is to bundle the properties in the ejb.jar. This is a pain in the arse to work with, especially when you have multiple ejb jars. Another way (which I use myself) is to deploy the properties in the same directory as the ejb.jar. This assumes that getClass().getResourceAsStream() is used to source the properties. I think the ideal way is to make the properties available to both by placing them in the lib directory of an EAR, but EARs seem to come with other problems that make them too much work for me to tackle right now.
