I am starting Jboss EAP 8.0 with Struts 7.0 and EJB 3.0 application. I am getting the following error. Can someone suggest whats going wrong here.

Something definitely looks strange with that message. Did you add any modules?

Also, Jakarta Enterprise Beans 3.0 will no work with JBoss EAP 8.0. You'll need to minimally migrate the packages from javax.ejb to jakarta.ejb.
