Thanks Mikalai and Venkatesh for the info.
I am getting the following message when starting the Jboss server

===========================================================================================

I don't know the reason. I am using JDK 1.5._02 as opposed 1.5_09 you said in your doc.
Also i am not able to see "JBoss AS" in the perspectove. although i installed the Jboss plugin .
The difference between your description is that.
the order is different.
My order
1) JDK (1.5_02)
2) eclipse(3.1.0)
3) jboss IDE plugin for eclipse(the latest)
4) jbossAS(4.0)


Let me know if the order matters.I am thinking NO.
Also i am not seeing any management links when i invoke the web-console.

Thanks for your help.

Howdy !

I am not sure where that errors come from.

If you want to follow those tutorials you must use the same versions of software pieces which are mentioned.

For example EJB 3.0 is not included in JBoss ZIP file, it only comes with installer. And you need 4.0.4 or higher.

Eclipse SDK version must be exactly the same (3.2.1) or higher, otherwise you might not be able to complete the tasks.

1. look at the JBoss log file when you deploy application. it should happen without exceptions

2. in my tutorial described how to check JBoss JNDI namespace - simple typo in name may lead to the situation when lookup failed

3. WAS / WSAD / RAD currently support at maximum EJB 2.1 only ;(

Thanks Mikalai:
I was able to successfully test the EJB using JBoss.
Just FYI,The new version of RAD (V 7.0) supports EJB 3.0.The reason i did not use it No 1. I cannot pay for it . NO 2. even if i get a Trail version it is very heavy.
I use RSA at my workplace.

I would say it was well worth trying to install JBoss . It was my first time but it was fun .
Once again Thank you fro your support.

Hi Manishi !

This is not accurate.

RAD 7 supports Java SE 5.0 , but JEE version is still 1.4, i.e. EJB spec is at level 2.1.

RAD has bult in support of WAS 6.1 - and as you might know it does not support JEE 5.0,rather 1.4.

At this moment in time you *can* hook up third party JPA provider to RAD 7.0, but you won't be able to use it in server managed invironment, also EJB 3.0 session beans can not be tested.

When WAS 7.0 will be released it may support JEE 5.0 and EJB 3.0, but it's definetely not in nearest time.

Hi,

I have installed the EJB3 feature pack on my WebSphere Application Server 6.1.

I'm using RAD7 as my development tool. Is it possible to install some sort of plug in which will give me EJB3.0 support in RAD7?

Regards,
Rick
