Download and install the Linux version of the Java software. 2. Create a simbolic link to your (will depends on Firefox version): A) Firefox version earlier than 3.6 Create a simbolic link to the plugin: your_firefox_plugin_dir# ln -s /your_path_to_java/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so libjavaplugin_oji.so B) Firefox 3.6 and later need the Next-Generation Java Plug-In ( details ) Run this command in the plugins directory of your Firefox installation to create a symbolic link to the Java plugin: your_firefox_plugin_dir # ln -s /usr/your_path_to_java/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so libnpjp2.so 3.

BigDecimal and Web services

It seems that Web Services don't accept a BigDecimal type param. I receive a null value for that param. JPA use BigDecimal for PKs annotated with @Id. So, I have decided to implement this workaround: @WebService() @Stateless() public class MyWebService implements Serializable {     @EJB     private MyEJBService ejbRef;     @WebMethod(operationName = "findStuff")     public Object findStuff(@WebParam(name = "someId")     String someId) {         return ejbRef.findStuff(new BigDecimal(someId));     } } Note the conversion from String to BigDecimal.
