IllegalStateException in Entity Beans under Jboss 3.

[josh_hu]

I have recently upgraded from Jboss 2.4.3 to Jboss 3.2.1 and now have problems invoking methods on all of my Entity Beans which ran fine under Jboss 2.4.3.

Jboss throws an IllegalStateException as follows whenever I invoke a method:

11:28:09,446 ERROR [LogInterceptor] RuntimeException:
java.lang.IllegalStateException
at org.jboss.ejb.EntityContainer.find(EntityContainer.java:654)
at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method)
at org.jboss.ejb.EntityContainer$ContainerInterceptor.inokeHome(EntityContainer.java:998)

Has anyone had similar problems, or know any solution.

We've seen similar problem in going from JBoss 3.0.7 to 3.2.1. The problem appears to be If you are getting remote interface by getEJBObject() through entity context. I think the exception is coming from here:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/jboss/jboss/src/main/org/jboss/ejb/EntityEnterpriseContext.java.diff?r1=1.26&r2=1.27

A work around is to use EntityContext.getPrimarykey() method:

public Order getRemoteInterface() {

//return (Order) context.getEJBObject(); Throws IIllegalStateException
return OrderUtil.getOrderEjb((OrderPK) context.getPrimaryKey());
}

I think you're right. I'm having the same problem if I try to do something like this in a LocalBean:

public City remoteRef() {
return (City)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(this.ctx.getEJBObject(), City.class);
}

It used to run just fine in JB 3.0.6 and previous versions.
I tried to find a bug report in bug db, but haven't found anything at first sight. Has this problem been filed?

Switching from jboss 3.0.3 to jboss 3.2.1 we also found the IllegalStateException when we have an entity bean that has both, local and remote interface. If we have an instance of the local bean and try to get the remote interface (using the getEJBObject method) we get :

2003-08-08 13:59:38,265 ERROR [org.jboss.ejb.plugins.LogInterceptor] TransactionRolledbackLocalException, causedBy:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: No remote interface defined.
at org.jboss.ejb.EntityEnterpriseContext$EntityContextImpl.getEJBObject(EntityEnterpriseContext.java:174)
at com.lionbioscience.annotation.applications.entity.AttrMappingEJB.getRemote(AttrMappingEJB.java:63)


This to me looks somehow like a the former problem 577711 is alive again?

I was getting this error for Entity Beans when upgrading from v3.0.6 to v3.2.1

In my case it was because of changes to the jboss.xml structure.
Once I deleted my
<enforce-ejb-restrictions> and
<container-configurations> sections, my Entity Beans started working again.
