Error "JBAS011040: Could not resolve method ..." when deploying application

[Romain Larvet-Boyer]

Hello,

Wildfly 8 raises me the following error when I deploy an EAR :

I have seen this error occuring in other contexts here: 

https://developer.jboss.org/message/951404#951404

According to the replies in this thread, it seems to be a wildfly bug, adressed in https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-6430

Can you confirm me if this actually is a Wildfly bug, and if it has been fixed in a later version - and which one?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
