Duplicate class found & runtime fails

[sysuser1]

I have two EJB's deployed onto JBoss 3.2.0 Application Server. Each of the EJB has its own runtime packaged as library.

I have the MDB & BMP pacakged as a separate EJB.ear files.

Sequence of deployment --> I deploy the BMP first & then MDB. The BMP create a row in a table in which the MDB calls remotely to execute the method on BMP to consume the information (retrives from the table) & publishes it.

In this situation, I am currently getting a duplicate class issue with the runtime library. The runtime library is packaged independently in both the BMP.ear & MDB.ear. Any idea why it is throwing an duplicate class & fails?

Were you able to solve this? I have a similar problem showing up in 3.2.0 where the same interface classes are in two different EJB jars packaged in two different ears. When deployed into one Jboss instance, I get a "Duplicate class found" error and the ears will not deploy.
