Error IWAE0037E when migrating mid-sized WebLogic 8.1 project

Question

Hi guys,
I am working on a project to upgrade legacy WebLogic 8.1.5 application into Workshop 9.2.2 using the migration tool. I am getting the following error message when trying to compile the migrated EJB entity bean codes. No warnings were reported during the upgrade process. I tried searching in Dev2Dev for IWAE0037E but no results were returned. Please let me know if you have encountered similar issues and any pointers on how to resolve them. Thanks in advance. :^O
Error Message:
IWAE0037E The interfaces of the linked enterprise bean WorkGroupBean do not match those in EJB ref ejb/WorkGroupBean in module EJB.jar.
The error points to the application.xml generated by WebLogic 8.1.5.
This is the original EJBgen annotations and the import wizard inserted annotations.

Hi Vincent
I found couple of support cases where the same error happened because of CMR in EJB or due to the way you import your ejb project for upgrade.
Could you please open a support case at http://support.bea.com and an engineer would be able to look at your application and help you with it?
