Session EJB runtime exception

[mannan]

Hi!
I get this for some of my session beans. Others work fine. Any ideas on how this can be? The create() works fine, but when calling a method in the session bean, the error is thrown.

Something's wrong with your bean implementation or its configuration, it is failing to create a new instance into the stateless pool. The fact that it throws an NPE to your face is not nice though.
