Roo doesn't create ManagedBeans if the domain is reverse enginereed from a database

[tylerdurden83]

Hello everyone.
I've tried to create a simple project with handmade entities, on top of which I created a jsf/primefaces web tier.
The tutorial which I followed, and that works like a charm, can be found here.

This is the full list of roo commands executed for it:

project --topLevelPackage com.springroo.autoshowroom --projectName roo-autoshowroom
persistence setup --provider HIBERNATE --database HYPERSONIC_IN_MEMORY
enum type --class ~.domain.Model
enum constant --name Audi
enum constant --name BMW
enum constant --name Ford
enum constant --name Mercedes
enum constant --name Opel
enum constant --name Volvo
enum constant --name VW
entity jpa --class ~.domain.Car
field string --fieldName modelName --notNull
field enum --fieldName model --type ~.domain.Model --notNull 
field number --fieldName price --type java.lang.Integer --notNull --min 10
field date --fieldName dateOfProduction --type java.util.Date --past
entity jpa --class ~.domain.Customer
field string --fieldName name --sizeMax 20 --notNull
field string --fieldName address --sizeMax 50 --notNull
field string --fieldName email --regexp "[a-zA-Z0-9]+@[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9]+"
field set --fieldName cars --type ~.domain.Car --mappedBy customer --notNull false --cardinality ONE_TO_MANY
field reference --fieldName customer --class ~.domain.Car --type ~.domain.Customer --notNull
web jsf setup --implementation APACHE_MYFACES --theme  START
web jsf all --package ~.jsf
perform tests
perform package
perform eclipse
quit

Now, I tried to make 2 more projects, using an oracle database and a mysql database reverse engineering to build the entities. Here is the full roo log:

project --topLevelPackage com.rhad.jmon.web --projectName jmonweb --java 6 --packaging JAR
jpa setup --provider HIBERNATE --database ORACLE 
osgi install --url file:///C:\oracleosgi\target\com.oracle.roo.jdbc.ojdbc14-10.2.0.4.0.0001.jar
database reverse engineer --schema ORAP8 --package ~.domain --testAutomatically false --enableViews false --includeTables "JMON_LOGGING JMON_MONITOR JMON_RISORSE_FS JMON_RISORSE_CPU JMON_RISORSE_PS JMON_RISORSE_MEM JMON_RISORSE_PING" --includeNonPortableAttributes false --activeRecord false
web jsf setup --implementation APACHE_MYFACES --theme BLACK_TIE 
web jsf all --package ~.jsf
perform package

The problem is that when I create entities via reverse engineering, I get the following exception:

GRAVE: Servlet.service() for servlet [Faces Servlet] in context with path [/jmonweb] threw exception [Target Unreachable, identifier 'jmonLoggingBean' resolved to null] with root cause
javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Target Unreachable, identifier 'jmonLoggingBean' resolved to null

which, after comparing the handmade and reverse engineered projects, I think that I can pinpoint to the fact that in the handmade one roo created a CarBean_Roo_ManagedBean.aj in the ~.jsf package, while there is no ...ManagedBean.aj at all created in both the reverse engineered projects.

What am I doing wrong? Why isn't roo creating ManagedBeans when the entities are generated via reverse engineering?

Thanks everyone for your help,
Roberto

Replying to myself, setting activeRecord to false is the issue. Can any mod delete or lock this thread?
Thank you!
