Here is my Spring Configuartion - Any Pointer or help is greatly Appreciated
(I am on Spring 2.0.8 and Websphere 6.0.2 +)

1. Try to use the latest Spring version (AbstractPollingMessageListenerContainer from 2.5.5 doesn't have receiveMessage() method at the line 375);
2. Try to create MessageConsumer manually, without any Spring help and check the result. If the NPE still occurs, open the case at WS support;

Resolved.Got the clue from
forum.springframework.org/archive/index.php/t-39605.html

changing the cacheLevel to zero resolved the problem.
<property name="cacheLevel" value="0"/>

Not sure why, Although I use a hibernate TransactionManager. Looks like the cacheLevel would not work with hibernate transaction manager

<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.Hibernat eTransactionManager">
<property name="sessionFactory"><ref bean="sessionFactory"/></property>
</bean>
