    "env not bound" when deploying session bean - how to bind JN

    hrdill

      I am deploying a simple EJB, building using xdoclet, snippets of which follow:

      public class TopicSenderEJB extends BaseStatelessSessionEJB
      {
       /**
       * @ejb.bean
       * name="TopicSenderEJB"
       * jndi-name="ejb/TopicSenderEJB"
       * local-jndi-name="ejb/local/TopicSenderEJB"
       * type="Stateless"
       * view-type="local"
       *
       * @ejb.transaction
       * type="Supports"
       *
       * @ejb.util
       * generate="logical"
       */
      
      ....
       /**
       * ejbCreate()
       *
       * @ejb.create-method
       *
       * @ejb.transaction
       * type="Required"
       */
       public void ejbCreate() throws CreateException
       {
       Context context = null;
      
       try
       {
       context = new InitialContext();
      
       m_topic = (Topic)context.lookup("java:jms/TestTopic");
      
       TopicConnectionFactory connectionFactory = (TopicConnectionFactory)context.lookup("jms/TopicConnectionFactory");
      
       m_topicConnection = connectionFactory.createTopicConnection();
       }
       catch(Exception e)
       {
       throw new CreateException(e.getMessage());
       }
       }
      

      Which generates the following in jboss.xml:
       <session>
       <ejb-name>TopicSender</ejb-name>
       <jndi-name>TopicSender</jndi-name>
       <local-jndi-name>TopicSenderLocal</local-jndi-name
       </session>
      

      and the following names in TopicSenderHome.java:
       public static final String COMP_NAME="java:comp/env/ejb/TopicSender";
       public static final String JNDI_NAME="TopicSender";
      


      This final bit becomes troublesome when I deploy the bean; I get the following:

      24626 [main] ERROR com.authentica.jmstest.TopicMessagingService - Could not create TopicSender; exception in TopicSenderLocalHome.create()
      24657 [main] ERROR org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer - could not create deployment: file:/C:/Programming/jboss/jmstest/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp65483jmstes
      t.ear-contents/jmstest-service.sar
      org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: create operation failed for package file:/C:/Programming/jboss/jmstest/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp65483jmstest.ear-c
      ontents/jmstest-service.sar; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Could not create TopicSender.env not bound; - nested throwable: (jav
      a.lang.RuntimeException: Could not create TopicSender.env not bound))
      at org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer.create(SARDeployer.java:202)
      at org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer.create(MainDeployer.java:786)
      at org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer.create(MainDeployer.java:778) etc...

      Why is "env" not bound, and how can I remedy this? I was unable to find much in the JNDI documentation about binding specific namespaces before an EJB is deployed.

          You're not showing all the relevant deployment descriptors to solve your problem. However, you will need to have an ejb reference in your ejb-jar.xml that links the private java:comp/env/ejb/TopicSender name to your TopicSender bean.
