Question

I have the following situation:

I have a java application with three projects:

• Java Project
• EJB Module
• Web Project

using net beans, I build the three projects and upload them on the server.
The Java Project deploy successfully but the EJB Module which depends on the Java Project gives the following error:

Answer 1

The exception clearly states that it could not find the class
gss.commons.exceptions.BusinessEntityFindException

Your ejb jar file MANIFEST.MF should contain the classpath it needs
e.g

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.8.1
Created-By: 1.6.0_25-b06 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Class-Path: your-java-project.jar

and make sure you include your your-java-project.jar in your server classpath.
