Question: ejb-ref with ejb3.0 and jboss-4.2.0.GA

I am trying to deploy stateful session bean in the jboss-4.2.0.GA server.
I want the bean to get bound to the java:comp/env namespace,
so that i can lookup for the bean as
Count objCount = (Count)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/count")

But i get the following stack trace when i access the client,
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: comp not bound

Please clarify whether we can use <ejb-ref> with ejb 3.0 and jboss-4.2.0.GA server.

Thanks,

Have a look at this

Yes, I have used the <ef-ref> as given in this URL only, still I am getting exceptions.

Thanks,

Please post the xml contents and the code where you are doing the lookup. Also, please post the output of the following steps:

- Go to http://localhost:8080/jmx-console
- Search for service=JNDIView
- Click on that link
- On the page that comes up click on the Invoke button beside the list() method
- The page that comes up will show the contents of the JNDI tree. Post that here.

These are the xml contents:

Global JNDI Namespace
+- CountBean (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext)
| +- remote (class: java.lang.Object)
| +- remoteStatefulProxyFactory (proxy: $Proxy100 implements interface org.jboss.ejb3.ProxyFactory)

Look up code:
Count objCount = (Count)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/count")

Thanks,
Guru

The xml contents are missing.

The jndi contents that you posted is for the Global JNDI namespace. If you want to use the java: namespace then you will have to look into the appropriate java: namespace of your application. You will find it on the same jndi tree view.

Hi Gurumurthy,
I am having the same issue. Did you solved this problem ? Can you tell me how?

Emanuele, please do not wake the zombies. Instead, start a new topic and provide the details.
