EJB deployment problems

Hi
I'm having problems deploying EJB's on Websphere 3.5. I have tried deploying the sample code from the book "Enterprise Java Programming with IBM Websphere" by Brown, Craig et al, so I don't think there is a problem with the code. This is the stack trace log that I get:

Exception:

It seems there is a problem generating the stub classes. Does anyone have any ideas about this??
Incidentally, I'm not using VAJ - I had to use the Jetace tool to create the .ser file and deployable .jar file
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Eek. Maysc, I never anticipated anyone NOT using VAJ with the book. I've never even tried it with JetAce. If I get a chance, I'll try it myself later in the week and get back to you.

Hi Kyle
Thanks for the offer of help but I seem to have solved the problem. I put the EJB files into a package and they deployed fine!! I've read on other newsgroups that WebSphere doesn't like it when the classes aren't in a package....not sure if this is true or not but it solved my problem :-)
Maysc

That is in fact, true. It almost insists that they be in a package, in fact
