I have a project and spent 2 full days and not able to get it working.
I am using jboss3.2.3.
I have a servlet and entity bean (BMP). Servlet neeeds to talk to
entity bean. this is the portion of code in servlet init:
Context context = new InitialContext();
Object ref = context.lookup("ArticleLocalHomeNickName");
articleLocalHome = (ArticleLocalHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(ref, ArticleLocalHome.class);
Servlet's war file's web.xml has:
<ejb-local-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/ArticleLocalHomeNickName</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
<local-home>net.xys.jm.articleEJB.ArticleLocalHome</local-home>
net.xyz.jm.articleEJB.ArticleLocal
</ejb-local-ref>
and META-INF/jboss-web.xml has:
<ejb-local-ref>
<ejb-local-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/ArticleLocalHomeNickName</ejb-ref-name>
<local-jndi-name>ejb/ArticleLocalHomeNickName</local-jndi-name>
</ejb-local-ref>
Jboss throws this exection:
Error during deploy; - nested throwable: (javax.naming.NamingException: ejb-ref: ejb/ArticleHomeNickName, no
ejb-link in web.xml and no jndi-name in jboss-web.xml)
Note that I also have defined in web.xml and jboss-web.xml "ArticleHomeNickName" reference in the same way.
in the entity bean ejb-jar.xml
<jndi-name>ArticleHomeNickName</jndi-name>
<local-jndi-name>ArticleLocalHomeNickName</local-jndi-name>
and in entity bean's jboss.xml
<ejb-name>Article</ejb-name>
<jndi-name>ArticleHomeNickName</jndi-name>
<local-jndi-name>ArticleLocalHomeNickName</local-jndi-name>
I also tried to use <ejb-link> but this did not work either.
Please help. The 700 page jboss documentation that cost me $10 do
not talk about deployment desricptors and how servlet and ejb
should be set up.
