Re: [Glassfish 3] Deployment fails on a NullPointerException.

GlassFish v3 (build 74.2)

I get the same error when trying to deploy a minimal app just for testing purposes.

My EAR module consists only of an EJB Module with two classes (1 Stateless Session Bean, 1 Remote Interface) and an accompanying application client module with 1 class.


The null pointer exception thrown by Glassfish should not happen. If something is wrong with my EAR-Archive, Glassfish should issue a meaningful error message rather than throwing a NPE.
