Newbie-ish question... Using Seam annotated SFSBs outside of
I have an EAR file set up as follows:
- jar with entity and session beans, annotated with Seam/EJB3. Also has WsServlet class, which is a regular "Hello World" servlet, but looks up an SLSB.
- war file that uses Seam/JSF
- another war file that just has a web.xml that defines WsServlet
When I make a request to WsServlet, I get the following stacktrace:
16:58:38,180 ERROR [[WsServlet]] Servlet.service() for servlet WsServlet threw exception javax.ejb.EJBException: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.jboss.ejb3.tx.Ejb3TxPolicy.handleExceptionInOurTx(Ejb3TxPolicy.java:69) at org.jboss.aspects.tx.TxPolicy.invokeInOurTx(TxPolicy.java:83) at org.jboss.aspects.tx.TxInterceptor$Required.invoke(TxInterceptor.java:192) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.aspects.tx.TxPropagationInterceptor.invoke(TxPropagationInterceptor.java:76) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.ejb3.stateless.StatelessInstanceInterceptor.invoke(StatelessInstanceInterceptor.java:54) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.aspects.security.AuthenticationInterceptor.invoke(AuthenticationInterceptor.java:78) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.ejb3.ENCPropagationInterceptor.invoke(ENCPropagationInterceptor.java:47) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.ejb3.asynchronous.AsynchronousInterceptor.invoke(AsynchronousInterceptor.java:106) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.ejb3.stateless.StatelessContainer.localInvoke(StatelessContainer.java:178) at org.jboss.ejb3.stateless.StatelessLocalProxy.invoke(StatelessLocalProxy.java:74) at $Proxy187.find(Unknown Source) at com.inertiabev.ws.WsServlet.doPost(WsServlet.java:45) at com.inertiabev.ws.WsServlet.doGet(WsServlet.java:32) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:697) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:810) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:252) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:173) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.filters.ReplyHeaderFilter.doFilter(ReplyHeaderFilter.java:96) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:202) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:173) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperValve.java:213) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:178) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.CustomPrincipalValve.invoke(CustomPrincipalValve.java:54) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.SecurityAssociationValve.invoke(SecurityAssociationValve.java:174) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.JaccContextValve.invoke(JaccContextValve.java:74) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.java:126) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:105) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:107) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:148) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:868) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.processConnection(Http11BaseProtocol.java:663) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint.processSocket(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:527) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.MasterSlaveWorkerThread.run(MasterSlaveWorkerThread.java:112) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.jboss.seam.Component.forName(Component.java:1011) at org.jboss.seam.ejb.SeamInterceptor.getSeamComponent(SeamInterceptor.java:61) at org.jboss.seam.ejb.SeamInterceptor.aroundInvoke(SeamInterceptor.java:34) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) at org.jboss.ejb3.interceptor.InvocationContextImpl.proceed(InvocationContextImpl.java:120) at org.jboss.ejb3.interceptor.EJB3InterceptorsInterceptor.invoke(EJB3InterceptorsInterceptor.java:62) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.ejb3.AllowedOperationsInterceptor.invoke(AllowedOperationsInterceptor.java:47) at org.jboss.aop.joinpoint.MethodInvocation.invokeNext(MethodInvocation.java:98) at org.jboss.aspects.tx.TxPolicy.invokeInOurTx(TxPolicy.java:79) ... 38 more
The servlet code is as follows:
public void doPost (HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException,
IOException
{
try {
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter () ;
out.println ("Hello World!") ;
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext () ;
BaseDao baseDao = (BaseDao) ctx.lookup ("biggie/BaseDaoBean/local") ;
State state = baseDao.find (State.class, "NY") ;
out.println (state.toString()) ;
out.close () ;
return;
}
catch (NamingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
throw new ServletException (e) ;
}
}
BaseDao is an SLSB that is also a Seam component (uses the @Interceptors annotation). State is an @Entity bean.
I'm somewhat new to EJBs, so I might be doing something wrong with the EJB3 context lookup. However, the SeamInterceptor comes up in the stack trace, so I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't anything in Seam that would prevent me from looking up a Seam component as a regular EJB.
I suppose the fallback is to lookup the BaseDaoBean from the Seam context?
