NullPointerException deploying JPA web application at jboss-
I developped a web applicacion using JPA as persistence technology and spring-framework-3.0.0.M2 under jboss-5.0.0.CR1 and everything seems to work fine with no problem at all.
The problem comes when I try to deploy the war file to any of the later versions jboss-5.0.0.CR2, jboss-5.0.0.GA, jboss-5.0.1.GA.
I always get a NullPointerException caused at deployment time.
Here is the stack trace from version jboss-5.0.1.GA:

I did not find anything in release notes referenced to the way of deployment of JPA web applications.
Has anyone else experienced this case?
Any suggestion?
Many thanks.
