    NPE deploying Hibernate service

      Hi,

      I am having trouble deploying an EAR that contains a HAR. I wonder if anyone can help me get started with hibernate/jboss..?

      My EAR looks like this:

      myapp.ear
      -META-INF/application.xml
      -META-INF/jboss-app.xml
      -jboss.har
      --hibernate-service.xml
      --mdbtest/ejb/Document.class
      --mdbtest/ejb/Document.hbm.xml
      -testClient.jar
      -testEJB.jar

      The console log shows the following null pointer exception:

      10:56:11,463 INFO [EARDeployer] Init J2EE application: file:/usr/local/jboss-4.0.0/server/default/deploy/myapp.ear

          The NPE seems to occur in some code that assumes you've included something like this in your hibernate-service.xml (without the backslashes):

          \<attribute name="HarUrl"\>file:///clomsdb.har\</attribute\>

          That is, harUrl is the null pointer, and it's a property of the ...jmx.Hibernate class which gets initialized in your mbean spec.

          I haven't gotten this working; I don't know what exactly the value of that attribute should be, but it got me past
          java.lang.NullPointerException

            I have kinda the same problem - unfortunately this:

            <attribute name="HarUrl">file://file.har</attribute>

            .. colud not solve my problem.

            Did anyone found a solution to this ?

              Bit old this post, but I thought I'd post the reply as I've spent all day fighting this. The problem stems from you using an ear file. if you seperate your hibernate files and put them in a .har file it works fine. Not sure what the solution is to including har in an ear and I've run out of time to be fannying around with this, just deploying them seperately.
