Check your code and make sure the ejbCreate functions have a return type of
com.netitbe.ishop.business.item2.ejb.ItemPk. And make sure that the argument
type for findByPrimaryKey in the home interface is
com.netitbe.ishop.business.item2.ejb.ItemPk.
When I got that error, it was because the return type for ejbCreate did not
match the <prim-key-class> in my ejb-jar.xml.
