WLS 9.1 compliance exception

I am stumped at the moment.  Our program creates an ActionFrame EJB
which handles the creation of all other EJBs.  However, I am seeing the
following error during the build process:

 

     [java] There are 1 nested errors:

 

     [java] <Apr 24, 2006 1:41:53 PM EDT> <Error> <J2EE> <BEA-160187>
<weblogic.appc failed to compile your application. Recompile with the
-verbose option for more details. Please see the error message(s)

However, the Bean in question is a Stateless EJB and so according to the
Xdoclet website:

 

"The method is an ejbCreate method and will be included in the home
interface. It is applicable to Session and Entity beans. In Stateless
Session beans the ejbCreate will be created if it is not in the code."

 

So why is this error being thrown?  We have over 100 ejbs that this
error is not thrown for.

 

Thanks for the help.
