    calling getCallerPrincipal() in ejbCreate fails

    tgdchmi2

      Hi

      I try to get the callerprincipal inside the ejbCreate method of a session bean:

      public void ejbCreate() {
      userId = context.getCallerPrincipal().getName();
      }

      but this call leads to the following exception:
      java.lang.IllegalStateException: No security context set

      If i use context.getCallerPrincipal() in a 'normal' method (not ejbCreate) it works really fine. Thus i think i don't do anything wrong...
      The EJB2.0 Specification says that it should possible to get the callerPrincipal from inside the ejbCreate method.
      So I think this could be a bug in JBoss!?!

      I already searched the WEB and the forum, but found only one similar problem, but without solution:
      http://www.jboss.org/modules/bb/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=forums/ anyone give me a hint, where the problem could be?

      My environment:
      IBM jdk 1.3.0
      JBoss 3.0.0
      Linux (Kernel 2.4.18)
