The websphere.home property should be set to your was home (in windows most
likely c:\Websphere\Appserver). If you do this it should work (for me it
does). I also pointed this out to the ant-dev mailinglist but haven't got
many answers. (http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9973)

Subject: Websphere 4.0.3: Exception while calling ejbdeploy
 
Hi all, 
 
I'm using Ant 1.5Beta 2.  I've got an ejbjar task in my Websphere build and
I'm seeing the following error which I believe is a "bug" or at least a
documentation omission.  I've tried to include as much detail as possible to
explain the problem.  I also apologize in advance for cc'ing the dev list,
however this email includes at least two potential bugs within Ant 1.5, so I
wanted to get the right audience.  My error is:
 
Exception while calling ejbdeploy. Details: java.lang.NullPointerException
 
I have bcel.jar in my classpath.  My JAVA_HOME is pointing to my Websphere
installed JDK (c:\websphere\appserver\java).  I believe I have properly
included the ejbdeploy tool in the wasclasspath element.
 
My websphere element looks like:
 
                                    <websphere
destdir="${dist.websphere.ejbs.dir}"
                                                codegen="true"
                                                ejbdeploy="true"
                                                keepgeneric="false"
                                                newCMP="true"
                                                quiet="false">
                                                <classpath>
                                                            <pathelement
location="${build.classes.dir}"/>
                                                            <pathelement
path="${shared.thirdparty.jars}"/>
                                                </classpath>
                                                <wasclasspath>
                                                            <pathelement
path="${shared.thirdparty.jars}"/>
                                                            <pathelement
path="${shared.websphere.jars}" />
                                                            <pathelement
location="${build.classes.dir}"/>
                                                            <pathelement
location="${websphere.jar}"/>
                                                </wasclasspath>
                                    </websphere>
 
Running with verbose, here's my output:

In browsing the code for the WebsphereDeploymentTool.buildWebsphereJar()
method, the only place I could readily see that a file was being used was
here:
 
                // Set the working directory
                javaTask.setDir(new
File(getTask().getProject().getProperty("websphere.home")));
 
I don't happen to have a websphere.home property created.  Is this a
requirement?  I added a websphere.home property to my build.  It didn't seem
to matter what this property was set to, just any old directory worked.  I
got a little further, but finally ended with the following "error":

I say "error" because the build still continued instead of failing.  My jar
was not generated.  Strange.  This probably another bug.
 
So in summary - can someone confirm the need for the websphere.home
property?  Is that a bug?  Also, should my ejbdeploy be working?  I can
deploy with the jar that ant creates when I set the ejbdeploy property to
"false".
 
Thanks,
