I got Jboss-Tomcat started and those examples run fine. However, the following error message occurs and I have not idea what they mean for. Please help.

Thanks in advance!

Can you post your jboss-web.xml.
It looks like you have done the following

<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/Account</ejb-ref-name>
</ejb-ref>

when you should have

<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/Account</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>???????</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>

Have a look at

http://www.jboss.org/online-manual/HTML/ch07s22.html

By the way, you don't need to restart the server
when you change a bean. Just replace it in the
deploy directory and wait a few seconds.

Thanks warjort.

I had checked the jar file and saw the jboss-web.xml is missed. The following is the ejb reference part that i extract from web.xml. What should I change when i need to create a jboss-web.xml.


<!-- EJB Reference -->
<ejb-ref>
Example EJB Reference
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/Account</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
com.mycompany.mypackage.AccountHome
com.mycompany.mypackage.Account
</ejb-ref>

<!-- Local EJB Reference -->
<ejb-local-ref>
Example Local EJB Reference
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/ProcessOrder</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type>
<local-home>com.mycompany.mypackage.ProcessOrderHome</local-home>
com.mycompany.mypackage.ProcessOrder
</ejb-local-ref>


Many thanks!

If you don't have jboss-web.xml that's ok.

In web.xml you need to add either <ejb-link> for beans
in the same application or <jndi-name> for beans in
other applications.

See the link above.

If you are still struggling try the web forum.
This error shouldn't stop the server installing.

If you post in the correct forum it is easier for
other people to search for similar problems :-)

Adrian
