Exception when accessing CMR field

[parul_patidar]

Hello,
I am using jboss with embedded tomcat. I get an error when i am accessing a cmr field using accessor method. I have 2 beans CategoryBean
and SubCategoryBean with one to many relationship. each category has more than one subcategories so i have a cmr field subCategories in CategoryBean and a cmr field category in SubCategoryBean. I also have
addSubCategory(LocalSubCategory subCategory) method in CategoryBean
following is the body of Method
public void addSubCategory(LocalSubCategory subCategory) { try { Collection subCategories = getSubCategories(); subCategories.add(subCategory); }catch(Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); throw new EJBException(ex); } }


I am getting error at the first line in try block
followin is the XML discriptor and stack trace i am getting

Please could you post what the solution was, for others (ie me) who have similar errors

[krogers]

Found a similar problem on the Sun forums, so I suppose you had the same problem of putting the relationships tag inside the enterprise-beans tag.

Still it is nice to post this kind of thing so others can find it.
