Accessing EJB3 from ESB

[vphagura]

I'm using JBossESB 4.4 with JBoss AS 4.2.3 on OpenSuse 11.

My ESB acts as a cleint to the EJB3, and I have to call the SLSB methods with Enitity beans as a param. My calls look something like this:

CustomerAccessor customerAccessor = ServiceLocator.getInstance().getCustomerAccessor(); // JNDI lookup

customerAccessor.createCustomer( customer );

Where customer is a EntityBean.

Now packaging:

EAR
- EJB3 jar
-- CustomerAccessor.class
-- CustomerAccessorBean.class
-WAR

ESB
--- Actions...
--- config xml files

COMMON.jar
-- Customer.class

Now, deployment:
All of my archives go the ../deploy directory


Problem:

When do the 'createCustomer' from my ESB action I get:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown entity: com.vsp.reservator.ejb.dmo.Customer

Any ideas/suggestions?? BTW: My MANIFEST in the EAR has a CLass-Path referencing COMMON.jar and I tried without that it does not still work!!!!!!
