problem injecting java:/Mail resource

[nholbrook]

I'm not sure if I'm just doing something dumb or if there is a bug here. I am trying to inject the mail session into an ejb. The class is a stateless session bean using a local interface only.

I'm using the following.

@Resource(mappedName="java:/Mail")
javax.mail.Session session;

I've tried changing the mapped name to just Mail, and removing it but I keep getting errors.

Any ideas?

Which version of EJB3 are you using? Can you please post the entire bean and client code? Your injection is correct. We have an identical test that is working properly with EJB3 RC5.

There is no deployment of the mail-service.xml or mail jars in the installer ejb3 configuration so I would expect that is the problem. Check that failure scenario and see if the exception can be improved.

You're correct - the installer needs mail.jar, mail-plugin.jar, and mail-service.xml.
