java - Glassfish 4.1 can't run RestFul service when using ear/ejb/web module

Question

I've a lot of jee7 maven projects (ears with web and ejb modules) with RestFul services that run well on Glassfish v 4.0 but as soon as I try to run these projects on Glassfish v. 4.1 the RestFul services don't work anymore and they throw this exception:

javax.servlet.ServletException: A MultiException has 1 exceptions.  They are:
1. org.glassfish.hk2.api.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: There was no object available for injection at SystemInjecteeImpl(requiredType=TestBean,parent=GenericResource,qualifiers={},position=-1,optional=false,self=false,unqualified=null,82785107)

I've double checked the problem and definitively Glassfish 4.1 probably has a broken library (maybe cdi implementation ?), Glassfish v. 4.0 and Wildfly 8.1.0.Final are working well...

I can't understand how can I run my RestFul web services on Glassfish v. 4.1...

Does anyone can help me ?

Many thanks in advance...

I had a similar problem. It's a bug as mentioned by @user993553, it tries to instantiate the EJB (GenericResource) of WAR Module from within the EJB Module.

A workaround is to convert your EJB from WAR Module to CDI. Just change @javax.ejb.Stateless to @javax.enterprise.context.RequestScoped or any other scope.

@Path("generic")
@javax.enterprise.context.RequestScoped
public class GenericResource 
{
    @Context
    private UriInfo context;

    @Inject
    TestBean testBean;

    public GenericResource() {}

    @GET
    @Produces("application/json")
    public String getXml() {
        // TODO return proper representation object
        return testBean.getValue();
    }
}
