JNDI Lookup problem with Servlet

[muradhak]

Hi JBosses,
I am using Jboss3.0(jetty disbled) with tomcat4.0.3. I am having a servlet which deployed as war file in tomcat. The functionality is lookup an EJB deployed in JBoss.

The servelt is giving error as follwing:
exception
---------
javax.servlet.ServletException: Failed to lookup from Bean

root cause
----------
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name interest is not bound in this Context

Can anyone give me a step by step procedure how to solve this.

ejb-jar.xml
-----------

<ejb-name>Interest</ejb-name>
org.jboss.docs.interest.InterestHome
org.jboss.docs.interest.Interest
<ejb-class>org.jboss.docs.interest.InterestBean</ejb-class>
<session-type>Stateless</session-type>
<transaction-type>Bean</transaction-type>


jboss.xml
---------

<ejb-name>Interest</ejb-name>
<jndi-name>interest/Interest</jndi-name>


servlet.java
------------
InitialContext jndiContext = new InitialContext();
Object ref = jndiContext.lookup("java:comp/env/interest/Interest");

These are extracts of the files.

In your web.xml add

<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>interest/Interest</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type>
org.jboss.docs.interest.Interest
org.jboss.docs.interest.InterestBean
</ejb-ref>

Then make a jboss-web.xml with the following content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE jboss-web
PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtds/jboss-web_3_0.dtd">
<jboss-web>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>interest/Interest</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>interest/Interest</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>
</jboss-web>

You have now configured java:comp/env for the war

If you used an ear, you would just need the following
in your web.xml (link to the ejb-name)
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>interest/Interest</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type>
org.jboss.docs.interest.Interest
org.jboss.docs.interest.InterestBean
<ejb-link>Interest</ejb-link>
</ejb-ref>
