Hi Gokhan, I think that's the problem - I have not defined my own SM properties in a java class - only in the rdf model.
Is there an example around that shows how to do that? Something like "public static final com.hp.hpl.jena.rdf.model.Property targetUser;"? I have imported the SM class as well as listed the appropriate dependencies.
