Hi,
I figured, you are using application server 8, you may be better off with application server 9. But anyway, ejbcreate() is when you want to implement the create() from the home interface, within the implementation bean class.
So you state and implement the ejbcreate() in the bean bean class. And you state the create method in the home interface.
