    Exception initializing interceptors (EJB3InterceptorsFactory

      We are currently running JBoss 4.2.2 and using EJB 2.0 with BMP. We are also in the process of introducing EJB 3.0 and would like to package EJB 2.0 and EJB 3.0 in the same JAR. I set the version attribute of our existing ejb-jar.xml to 3.0:

      <ejb-jar version="3.0"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/ejb-jar_3_0.xsd">


      Some of my existing EJB 2.0 beans now fail to deploy. Here is the exception message:

      16:40:27,430 WARN [ServiceController] Problem creating service jboss.j2ee:ear=EMS.ear,jar=Server.jar,name=TrainingWebService,service=EJB3
      java.lang.RuntimeException: An exception occurred initialising interceptors for class com.creativesolutions.ems.webservice.training.TrainingWebServiceBean.getTrainingEnrollmentWSOs

       ... 102 more



      Here is the code of the failing EJB method:

      public TrainingEnrollmentWSO[] getTrainingEnrollmentWSOs(int trainingClassID, boolean showConfirmedOnly, String clauseType) {
       try {
       return new TrainingEnrollmentDAO().getTrainingEnrollmentWSOs(trainingClassID, showConfirmedOnly, clauseType);
       }
       catch(Exception e) {
       ErrorLogger.error(this,e.getMessage(),e);
       return null;
       }
       }


      If required, I will be happy to give more information regarding my setup and will appreciate any thoughts that can resolve this issue.

      thanks.

        • 1. Re: Exception initializing interceptors (EJB3InterceptorsFac

          The EJB i.e. TrainingWebServiceBean is a stateless session bean (2.0) and implements the javax.ejb.SessionBean interface.

          • 2. Re: Exception initializing interceptors (EJB3InterceptorsFac

            Upon further digging, the root cause seems to be the PostConstruct annotated method not liking the ejbCreate method signature (the fact that it throws checked exceptions):

            Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: @javax.annotation.PostConstruct annotated method has the wrong signature - public void com.creativesolutions.ems.prsbtaxtracking.ejb.PRSBTaxTrackingControllerBean.ejbCreate() throws javax.ejb.CreateException,java.rmi.RemoteException,javax.naming.NamingException

            Any thoughts?

              As per section 12.4 of EJB3 spec,

              Lifecycle callback interceptor methods defined on a bean class have the following signature:
              void <METHOD>()


              So your ejbCreate method, which you have annotated with @PostConstruct does not follow this rule.

                Thanks Jaikiran - I figured that was the problem and removed the exceptions from the throws clause of ejbCreate(). I am able to deploy the beans now.

                Please note that these are NOT EJB 3.0 beans but EJB 2.0 beans that we are trying to package with other EJB 3.0 beans in the same JAR. Looks like the container will treat all my EJB 2.0 beans as EJB 3.0 beans because they have been packaged under the EJB 3.0 deployment descriptor. I am wondering if there are any other gotchas that we will run into as we perform more tests on the EJB 2.0 and EJB 3.0 beans that have been packaged together. I am really interested in knowing if anyone else has tried this approach (packaging EJB 2.0 and EJB 3.0 beans in the same JAR) and run into similar problems.

                • 5. Re: Exception initializing interceptors - Entity beans

                  We are now able to access Session EJBs, but having issues accessing our (EJB 2.0) Entity EJBs. The container does not bind them to the JNDI namespace (I checked on the JMXConsole) and I am getting a NameNotFoundException. I think it treats EJB 2.0 Entities as EJB 3.0 Entities which do not need to get bound to the JNDI namespace. Here is part of the exception trace:
