We are aiming to have it out in approximately two weeks (assuming we
don't encounter any major problems).

Thanks for the help, John ... that does appear to be my problem. I
guess I'll wait for 1.1.1. Is there an ETA?

It could be that you are hitting a bug that should be fixed in the
upcoming 1.1.1 release (
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2125
<http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2125> ). Also
check you
are setting the "Class-Path:" entry in the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
file in the JAR containing the MDB to point to the libraries (e.g.
hibernate) in the EAR (not that this will help you without the fix).
