java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/ejb/EJBMetaData

Hello

I've changed the ear deployer to isolate my application:

<attribute name="Isolated">true</attribute>

Now the AS throws an exception while deploying my EBJs
WARN [org.jboss.mx.server.registry.BasicMBeanRegistry] preRegister() failed for jboss.j2ee:jndiName=ejb/TerminalService,service=EJB:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/ejb/EJBMetaData

at java.lang.Class.privateGetPublicMethods(Class.java:1794)
at java.lang.Class.getMethods(Class.java:832)

Does anybody know the reason why?

Thank's

Hello

Now I have changed my strategy. Instead of config a global isolation in the
ear-deployer.xml I put a jboss-app.xml with the following content in my ear file:

<jboss-app>
 <loader-repository>
 my.app:loader=kt
 <loader-repository-config>
 java2ParentDelegation=true
 </loader-repository-config>
 </loader-repository>
</jboss-app>

(in the ear-deployer.xml Isolated and CallByValue are set to false )
When I start the server I'm getting ClassCastExceptions on all my EJBs.
Touching the ear-deployer.xml without stopping the server causes a redeploying of my application. And now all went well my EJBs could be deployed??? Stopping and starting the server again throws ClassCastExceptions???

I'm using JBoss AS 4.0.1 / 4.0.2 and JDK 1.4.2_06.
