My current installation includes:

SOA+TOB +patch
NEJ 4.2b +patch 6.02 using biffer
TDD 1.10
SOS 1.10
TS 6.04
BP1.76
some small item mods

I found that during NEJ part 1. when Imoen fail when stealing from shop, the shop owner will not go hostile, but if pick pocket fail, they will go hostile.

I am still in NEJ part 1, I don't know this problem will only apply to NEJ or it will affect all other shops in BG2. I don't know this problem is caused by NEJ or other mods.

A problem with a store will be at the individual store and storeowner, not with a mod as a whole. Each storeowner should have a script that tells the owner what to do if a failed stealing attempt was made. If the owner doesn't have that script, they will not go hostile from your failed theft. Which store has this problem?

All creatures seem to go hostile on a failed pickpocket attempt, so I have to assume that is a built in game effect not something scripted.

Tired of Bhaal? Try some classics mods instead:

Yes, it is scripted. All store owners I know of have a STEALxxx script, which looks similar to this (STEALAMN.bcs):

IF
  StealFailed([ANYONE])
  !Allegiance(Myself,ENEMY)
THEN
  RESPONSE #100
	StartDialogue("stolen",LastTrigger)
END

And you will need specific information (whose shop, exactly) to get any more answers.

I had the same problem when I had nej installed, you could  clean the shop and he would not go hostile, the shops outside of nej where like normal tho so its no biggie, I didn't use Imoen as a thief anyways on the nej, dualled her to mage as soon as i got her since you really need one, specially with Bp Ai mod, also you might wanna keep dar his remove fear will come verry handy against the mists a little later ;/.
