[jira] Updated: (GERONIMO-960) NPE related to EJB while deploying EAR

["Aaron Mulder (JIRA)" <de...@geronimo.apache.org>]

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-960?page=all ]

Aaron Mulder updated GERONIMO-960:
----------------------------------

      Component: OpenEJB
    Fix Version: 1.1
                     (was: 1.2)
      Assign To: Aaron Mulder
       Priority: Critical  (was: Major)

The NPE appears to be coming from user code.  I guess the best we can do is provide a better error saying "encountered an unexpceted exception while calling EJBCreate on bean class foo" or whatever.

> Reported on the user list:
> Unable to distribute Myapp.ear : Unable to initialize EJBContainer GBean: ejbName [MyAddressBean] caused by null
> i have the entry in openejb-jar.xml for this bean it is as below
> <ejb-local-ref>
>       <ref-name>MyAddress</ref-name>
>       <name>MyAddressBean</name>
> </ejb-local-ref>
> The XML looks wrong but that shouldn't throw an NPE...  Whatever the issue is we should try to avoid the NPE.
