Can't get Servlet to deploy--Naming Exception no ejb-link ma

[marciahostetler]

I'm trying to get a simple servlet to run. It references one session bean. I created an ear file in J2EE deploytool and it ran fine under J2EE server. When I deploy the ear to JBoss I get the following error (I tried creating an EJB jar and war file and I get similar results). What am I doing wrong.

you need a jboss-web.xml file in your WEB-INF directory of your war.
something like this:

<jboss-web>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/webtest/converter</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>jndi.name.you.bound.your.bean</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>
</jboss-web>

the bean should be deployed before you deploy your war file.

I think I did what you said. Here's copies of my pertinent files:

Hi, have you solved that problem till now?
I got the same error, too. And I've spent quite a while to fix, but couldn't.
So, if you know the answer now, please let me know.
Thanks.
