Yes, and no :-) We got an EntityBean 3.0 class, a SessionBean class and an Interface implemented by the SessionBean class. JPA is used by the SesionBean (not(!) by the EntityBean) This thing works, cause the EntityBean is found/read and written by the SessionBean which uses JPA. Because the EntityBean uses @Entity and other persistance annotations, it should be alright to just remove the SessionBean from the jar (as well as it's interface class) and deploy the jar then then. When trying/doing so, the deployer crashes with the given (2 posts above) exception. (Yes, i removed the <class> entry from the persistance.xml too, which mentions the SessionBean. You can then remove the persistance unit definition, cause no class depends on it. I tried both ways: remained it and removed it - no difference.) --- Apart from the example mentioned above, the deployment exception always occurs if an ejb.jar that is to be deployed ONLY contains EntityBeans. Maybe that s a hint where I'm going wrong - although I didn't see something in the specs for j2ee 5 which sais that any ejb.jar must at least contain one SessionBean (if u do add just one SessionBean to the ejb.jar the deployer works fine again). If someone can setup an example of a simple ejb.jar with just one simple 3.0 EntityBean class which deploys on his geronimo, I would be happy if he made it available for me. So I can check what s wrong with my own ejb.jar or with my server.
